General policies
All communication goes through Martina, not individual walkers.
The time of your walk/sitting starts upon us entering the building and ends upon us closing your apartment door to leave.
Outside of puppies who are house trained or dogs with physical problems we arrive within two-hour time frames.
We can not walk a puppy freely on the street until they have received all their shots.
Please make sure all of those involved with the care of your pet(s) are aware of our policies.
Payment policies
Invoices are sent out once per month via e-mail. Payment is due 7 days after the invoice is sent. For longterm sitting we require a 50% deposit once we confirm your reservation.
