FAQ
1 / Do I get to meet my Pet Care Specialist?
One of the benefits of hiring Pawsitivity Pet Services is that we work as a team. Our team of sitters are always ready to go in case your primary sitter is unavailable.
After your meet and greet with Kaitlyn, the owner, we will decide which Pet Care Specialist is best for you and your pets needs and assign the perfect sitter.
​
If it is imperative that you meet your Pet Care Specialist, we will offer a meet and greet for $25. While assign a primary sitter, we are human. Our team is entitled to days off, we get sick, and unforeseen circumstances arise. There may be occasions where we need to have a secondary sitter step in. Our team is hand selected and carefully trained to provide the best care for your pet.
2 / What is Pawsitivity's Cancellation Policy?
