Service Minimums**

Because the health and well-being of your pet(s) is our top priority, SW&S sticks to the service requirements outlined below. Sorry, but these are non-negotiable.

Dogs should never go more than 12 hours without a break. SW&S requires a minimum of 2 visits/day for all dogs unless it's a midday potty break/walk scenario where someone will be available to let the dog(s) out in the morning and evening.

Cats are naturally curious, which can get them into trouble. If there aren't humans around to help them out, they could end up hurting themselves. Also, cats tend to mask illness more than their K-9 counterparts. For these reasons SW&S will not agree to every other day cat visits.

Thanks for understanding!

Shake, Waggle, & Stroll would love to take care of every pet in need. Unfortunately, we're only human. We have to consider things like our ability to provide the services requested, our current availability, and the costs involved (things like travel). If we can't help you due to any of these reasons, we will try our very best to recommend one of our peer sitting companies to help you.

If you have any questions about our services, please contact us, and we'll be happy to help you. When you're ready to reserve great care for your pet, go to our reservations page.
