Paula's Pet Taxi Service - In Home Pet Sitting - Port Charlotte, FL
Pet Taxi & Check-In Service-
SATURDAYS & SUNDAYS & Most HOLIDAYS!!
This is an "at your home pet check-in service" and "transportation service" for your pet in the local area(s).
- Saturdays, Sundays ....and select Holiday availability!
Do you need your pet to go to the groomer, or get a vet check up, or enjoy a walk in the park, and you cannot find the time? Or you do not drive and public transportation will not allow pets to ride? Here is your solution....
the LOCAL PET TAXI is at your service!
The Pet Taxi cost is $30 round trip with a max distance of 20 miles from my residence in the city of Willowick zip code 44095. If over 20 miles away, then the cost is $40. $5 additional per pet, please. I am located in Lake County and look forward to checking in or transporting your beloved pet to wherever they need to go!
"Check-In" [Drop-In] Visits
I stop by my client's home while they're away a few times a day (Usually 3-4X is most common) for 30-45 minutes each time to feed, take out to potty, and play with their pets.
The fee for check-ins run between $12-18 a visit, depending on the distance and the amount of times needed, holiday rates, numer of pets, etc. Overnight sitting in your home is at a higher rate and dependent on scheduling availability. (This would not include staying at the residence all day; just over-night with your pet.)
Pet sitters take care of our most treasured furry friends and help ease the stress and discomfort that comes with a disrupted schedule for your dogs. They’ll still miss you, but having someone available for belly rubs, food, and fetch can help take their minds off the misery. Please contact and book my in home pet sitting and pet taxi services on Petworks. Thank You.
