Soulful Dogsitting List of Services & Rates
*Base rates listed below are loose estimates and may be subject to change according to your pup's specific routine, times and dates specified, and all details of our sit, which will all be discussed by initial phone call.
From there we will discuss all details, and if all sounds aligning, we schedule our meet n greet ($30-60 *depending on location, to cover travel and approximately 1 hr meeting) so we can all get acquainted, you show me all I need to know so that we can minimize any questions that may arise during our sit. (Required for all new sits prior to booking).
A sample walk (together with you) is also done during our meet n greet.
A meet n greet not only benefits us both, but has your pup feel *much* more comfortable meeting their new best friend rather than feeling like they got left with a stranger; a completely different experience.
Your pup's emotional well-being is incredibly important and is just as important as their physical safety!

Jessica Bella is a certified Personal Wellness Chef (graduate of The Natural Gourmet Institute for Health & Culinary Arts) since 2011. Merging Personal Chef Service with dogsitting will be more affordable than booking this service separately.
This is the perfect package for those going away and would like to come home to a fully stocked fridge of healthy meals for the week/next few days or just dinner for the night of your arrival and breakfast for the next few mornings.
This also works best for clients with dogs who rest alot or who have a 3-4.5 hr time slot on the last day of our sit (or the night before if you arrive early morning). This is when Jessica will prepare your meals so you come home to super fresh, same day cooked meals (and a super clean kitchen!) You leave the ingredients in the fridge, freezer and pantry, and Jessica will get creative and make some meals she gets inspired with the ingredients you have on hand! (You can also specific what specific dishes you'd like as well or have her order the groceries to arrive same day as cook...) The main intention here is to alleviate any of the work or thinking for you so you can just enjoy your travels and come home to some delicious meals to replenish you!
