Scheduling Reservations
We request 7 days advance notice of the first scheduled pet sitting visit. Additional fees will result for less than 7 days advance notice. Please call to make your reservation or you may submit a Service Request on line.  Our independently contracted pet sitters do not have the ability to schedule service or alter service scheduled.

If your pet needs more time then scheduled, it will be added as needed and billed to the client in 15-minute increments.

Service Confirmation
Spoil’d Rott’n does not make tentative reservations.  Service dates are reserved until cancelled.  Prior to the beginning of pet sitting service, the client will receive an invoice via email. Please verify the dates listed on the invoice to confirm accuracy.

Service Time
Please make specific arrangements with Spoil'd Rott'n management for a specific time of arrival to care for your pets. Our normal policy is to provide the client with a 2-hour window of service. This allows our pet sitters to handle any unforeseen circumstances that may arise with other clients and/or travel difficulties. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

Contacting Your Pet Sitter
Please do not put your pet sitter in an awkward position by requesting personal information.  If you need to get a message to your pet sitter regarding a last minute change or question, please contact our office.  Messages are picked up often and will be delivered to the proper person.  We do not provide personal information of our contractors to clients.  Thank you for helping to ensure the privacy and safety of all.
