How many dogs can you walk at once?Two dogs per walk or hike if they are from the same household.

How long will my dog be walked?Your dog's walk will always be the full amount of time selected; walk time will start after we leash up to start our adventure. Unleashing and making sure your dog is left with a fresh bowl of water or treat will take place after the selected time has been completed. You will receive a text message at the end of service, letting you know that our walk has been completed and your fur babe is back home, happy and safe.
-
What is your snow, extreme heat, and inclement weather policy?For scheduled dog and cat pet sitting visits, every effort will be made to carry on as planned. On days with extreme weather (heat, cold, and rain storms) walk duration may be reduced but every effort will be made to get your pet out, if a walk or hike isn't feasable, playtime indoors will make-up for the remaining walk time. Your dog's safety and health, as well as mine, is always top priority. I will not walk your dog if it is too hot out or if ice/snow is going to cause a potential danger to either of us.
-
What is included in a cat visit?I will come to your home to visit your cat(s) for the scheduled time. During this time, I will serve or replenish your cat's food, refresh their water, administer medications if needed, tend to the litter box, spend time playing, socializing, and making sure they feel PURRfect!

See our Services page for fees

Does Ohana Time provide boarding services in the sitter's home?Ohana TIme does not offer boarding services in the sitter's home as we are not a boarding facility. We offer Overnight Care in the owner's home; OT feels this alleviates any undue stress on your fur babes casued by boarding in an unfamiliar house. Your fur babe gets to relax in thier own home and their routine stays the same while you're away. The only difference is a new face giving them love and attention for a few days. Added Bonus! Your home is looked after while you're away. How awesome is that? Peace of mind for your home and your loved ones!!
