Questions about pet care in West Haven.

Do you cover the newer West Haven subdivisions out on 4700 West?
Yes. Our service area extends through all of West Haven, from the Riverdale Road border west to the 4700 West subdivisions. New construction sometimes confuses GPS apps, so during your meet and greet we'll confirm exact entry instructions and gate codes if needed.
How does the meet and greet work in West Haven?
Same as anywhere, free, in-home, about 30 minutes. We come to you, meet your pets, walk through your home, review feeding and care notes, and pick up a key or note your gate code. No card required, no commitment.
Are you covered if something goes wrong at my home?
Yes. We're a fully bonded and insured Utah pet care company, and our policies cover both your pet and your home in West Haven. We've never had to use it, but it's there. Read more about why insurance matters.
Do you charge extra based on the city I live in?
No. Our pricing is the same across every city we serve. See current pricing or ask during your free meet and greet.
Who covers visits if someone on my care team is out?
We're a team, not a single sitter. Your care team is consistent and trained, and any team member who visits already knows your pet's care plan through Time to Pet before they arrive. You'll always know who's coming and see a photo report after every visit.
Are your sitters all local to the Ogden area?
Yes. Every team member is a W-2 employee who lives in and around Ogden. We're a local team serving the same neighborhoods we live in.
