Policies

The client is solely responsible for the payment of all medical bills for their pet and they release Kathy Loves Pets LLC (dba KathysDogWalking.com and Kathy Dog Walking & Pet Sitting), its officers, directors, agents and independent contractors of and from any and all responsibility for claims, damages, debts, arising out of or related to such medical care, including, but not limited to, transportation to/from the veterinary clinic and choice of veterinarian and animal hospital.

Kathy Loves Pets LLC reserves the right to immediately change your dog’s type of walking if we believe it is necessary to protect the health and well-being of your dog, other dogs, or our staff.

If your dog causes serious destruction to our leashes/cars/home during walks, transportation or boarding, Kathy Loves Pets LLC reserves the right to obtain reimbursement for the damage.

All dogs must be healthy and current on all vaccinations. We will need a copy of your dog’s updated vaccination records from your vet before you start walking services with us to ensure your dog’s safety as well as that of our existing dogs. If your dog is exhibiting any symptoms that may suggest illness such as sneezing, coughing, wheezing, runny eyes or nose, vomiting, lethargy, or diarrhea, please let us know. Dogs with flea or tick problems are not allowed.

Kathy Loves Pets LLC requires that each of our clients use a key storage lock box at their home. We no longer hold client keys. The use of a lock box gives the client the peace of mind that your key will always be at your home in a secure location. Please provide 2 copies of your key in the lock box so that we have one available as backup for emergency purposes.

The safety of your dog is the utmost concern. If we feel like we can not safely walk your dog with a harness, Gentle Leader or regular collar, we will use a prong collar to maintain control of the walk.

There is a Last Minute Fee for Dog Walking/Pet Sitting.
If we are given less than 3 hours notice for daily dog walking and less than 24 hours notice for pet sitting there will be a $5 - $25 last minute fee.
