Question 1

Why are your prices so low compared to other house sitting companies?

Accepted Answer

There are a couple of reasons why I choose to set lower prices, the first one being that I genuinely enjoy being able to care for other peoples pets and consider it a joy to do so.

The second reason, is that pet and house sitting in London specifically, is useful to me for my work. Being able to stay in London for longer periods gives me more time and opportunities to meet with producers, other writers and engage in courses and networking. I therefore see this as more of a mutually beneficial arrangement - this is why I ask that animals can be left for a minimum of 4 hours at a time, so that I have opportunities to nip into town for meetings etc should the need arise. This is not every day of course, as the majority of the time I work from the house; but the lower fees are enough to cover my travel costs and expenses and in exchange, you get a reliable animal lover who will spend lots of time with your pet and keep your home clean and safe.

Question 3

What is your Cancellation Policy?

Accepted Answer

If you cancel your sit within 5 days of the arrival date, the 50% upfront deposit you made will be non-refundable.

If you cancel your sit between 6 and 21 days before the arrival date, then the deposit you made will be refunded to you, minus the cost of any pre-booked travel expenses incurred by the sitter, at their discretion [proof of payment for travel expenses will be provided].

Any cancellation made 22 or more days before the arrival date, the full 50% deposit will be refunded.

Question 4

Do you require a deposit?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there is a 50% upfront fee for house sitting services. This is to secure the date and allow me to book travel to London.

The remaining balance will be due on the final day of the sit.
