Frequently asked questions.
Here are a few things families often want to know before inviting a sitter into their home.
Will you be the only person in my home?
Yes. I'm the only person who enters on behalf of Misty's during your stay. No rotating team or substitute sitter. Any exception would require your explicit agreement.
Do you need a guest room or bedding?
No. I can bring my own Japanese futon and bedding if preferred. We can discuss the most suitable sleeping area during the meet-and-greet.
Do you stay overnight?
Yes, overnight stays are my specialty. Arrival, departure, and daytime coverage are arranged in advance.
How long can pets be left alone?
It depends on your pet and package. I operate my own business and may adjust my daytime schedule, but we agree to specific coverage and maximum absences before I accept a stay.
Do you care for cats, birds, and fish?
Yes, I have personal care experience with dogs, cats, birds, and fish. We'll review individual routines and needs beforehand.
What about medications or special needs?
Please disclose requirements in advance. I review each situation individually and will only accept care I'm comfortable and capable of providing.
Do you handle pet emergencies?
I haven't personally handled a pet emergency while sitting. We'll document your veterinarian, emergency contact, and care authorization before a stay.
Is the meet-and-greet complimentary?
Yes. After reviewing your request, I'll invite suitable households to a free meet-and-greet.
What areas do you cover?
The Phoenix metro area, including Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Tempe, Scottsdale, Queen Creek and nearby communities, depending on scheduling and travel.
How do I request dates?
Use the care request button to contact me. The public Google Form will be connected once its responder link is available; submitting a request does not reserve dates.
Tell me about your furry family member.
I'd love to know their name, their quirks, and what makes them feel at home.
