Dog Walking, Pet Sitting, and more!
Daily Dog Walking provides your dog an opportunity to get exercise, personal attention, affection and play while you are at work or busy with other errands. Research shows that dogs who have enough exercise feel less stress, exhibit fewer signs of separation anxiety, and have a healthier social temperament. In simple terms: a walked dog is a happy dog. When you hire WunderPetz® Dog Walking and Pet Sitting, we’ll tailor a dog walking program that is customized to meet your dog’s specific exercise needs with one-on-one attention.
Available 7 days a week from 7am–10pm and can be scheduled on a daily, weekly, monthly, or as-needed basis. All rates include one or two dogs. There is an extra pet fee for additional dogs.
From short potty breaks to hour-long sessions.
With our Solo Adventures service, your pup(s) will benefit from a one-on-one dedicated hike and outdoor exploration with one of their favorite human friends. They’ll spend up to 90-minutes exploring new sights, smells and sounds on one of our local trails and get an extra dose of on-leash positive reinforcement training. This service is great for dogs who love hikes or pups who need more focused exercise than a walk in the neighborhood. The service includes pick-up/drop-off services so it’s even easier than daycare!
What Solo Adventures include:
New puppy? No pup-roblem! WunderPetz® offers special services designed to support the process of potty training, early learning, and basic skill development for young dogs with the consistent schedule that proper housebreaking necessitates. As your puppy’s developmental needs evolve over the first nine months of their life, WunderPetz® Dog Walkers will ensure that your new bundle of puppy love gets all the necessary potty training support and bladder relief he or she needs so that you don’t have to worry about rushing home on your lunch break to avoid an accident. We can also provide extra feedings, consistent engagement, and basic training reinforcement – and many cuddles and pets, of course! If you’re crate training, you probably know that crate trained puppies need a break every 3-4 hours for proper training and socialization – consistency is key for new pups and we are here to help!
Potty breaks can be brief walks, yard time, and/or play time, with or without feeding – whatever you prefer or is needed at your puppy’s stage of development, we are here for you!
All puppy visits are scheduled within a one hour arrival window. Contact the office to schedule.
Drop-in pet sitting visits are great for pets that need care while you’re out of town, but not necessarily an overnight snuggle buddy. (Many cat owners choose this option for their, ahem, independent furry roommates.) Each visit can be scheduled in 15 minute increments (as long as you’d like, and as often as you need), and include the following:
When we first hopped out of our kennel back in 2016, providing overnight, in-home, pet sitting set WunderPetz® apart. WunderPetz® offers professional Overnight Pet / House Sitting for those pets who prefer to have a frequent human presence (and a person to cuddle with them at night!). Let’s face it: pets are happiest when they’re in their own home. With our Overnight Pet Sitting Service, your pets can stay in their own environment even when you can’t be there. You can feel secure knowing that your home has the added measure of security that Overnight Pet Sitting provides; your home is taken care of, in addition to your pet. Consider this option the closest thing to being home yourself.
PLEASE NOTE– Overnights are reserved for our established clients who also book other services with us.
Overnight Options
Overnight services has limited availability and are not included in our availability guarantee. During Holidays and other peak demand periods we may not be able to customize your pet care.
We’ll pick up your pet and drive them to wherever they need to go and back: a vet appointment, a grooming appointment, a playdate at the park…wherever it is they’re going, we’ll get them there and back home safely.
Visiting our beautiful city of Vancouver WA sometime soon?
Sometimes when you’re traveling for fun or business, the family pets get to come along, too! When you want to enjoy area attractions like shopping, gallery hopping, touring wine country, seeing live music or theater, or having a leisurely dinner at one of Vancouver’s fantastic restaurants, our pet sitters will provide one-on-one pet care in the comfort of your hotel room. Just like a regular Pet Sitting visit, your pet will enjoy walks and playtime, we’ll provide regular feedings and administer any necessary medication, and make sure your pets get plenty of love and attention so you can have a great time time out on the town.
Additional Pets: The reality is that providing care for more than 2 pets or walking more than 2 dogs at a time does require more time and more skill. Providing care for additional pets, who often have different needs, consistently requires extra time and attention to details by a skilled pet care professional. For this reason we add a fee for additional pets.
Access: For security, we work with clients to find the best on-site entry solution for their home. Here are a few examples:
If we need to schedule a key collection / drop-off AFTER the initial consultation or independent of any scheduled services, there is a $16.00 fee per drop-off / pick-up to compensate your sitter for their time.
Urgent Care: A $20.00 fee may be applied when pet sitting service is requested within 36 hours of start time for new clients to accommodate urgent meeting scheduling and expedited administrative processing time. A $5 fee will be added to any services scheduled after 7PM for next-day (or same-day) service.
Standard of Care: Please note our standard of care for dogs is a minimum of two 30 minute visits every 24 hours, not more than 12-14 hours apart.
For cats and other small animals we require at least one 30 minute visit every 24 hours.
Late Evening visits: $5 charge for visits scheduled after 7pm.
Client Meetings: Every client gets one complimentary meeting when they first sign up. Meetings with additional staff can be scheduled by request at $25 per staff person.
Weekend Fees: Visits booked on the weekends will be charged a $5 fee per visit.
Parking Fees: When our staff is required to pay for parking during the time of your service a parking surcharge will be added to your service rates to compensate for that expense. Currently rates can range from $.70 to $1.50 per 30 minutes depending on location. This information will be confirmed after your new client meeting and on boarding process has been completed. If there are free parking alternatives these fees can be waived.
Excessive Wait Times: If circumstances beyond WunderPetz®’s control necessitate that a team member wait more than 10 minutes’ time to access your building (no response at call box, concierge absence, etc.), your services may be rescheduled or additional charges may apply to compensate for our staff’s time and/or for return visits.
Please inquire with the office for additional information on fees, or for tips on avoiding excessive waits.
Holidays: $10.00 additional fee per household per visit.
Holidays Include: Memorial Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, and New Year’s Day.
Billing: Invoices are emailed through your online portal or app after services are completed at which time they are auto-deducted. In order to schedule services, you will need to have a viable credit card on file. A deposit may be required for some pet sitting services when more than a week in duration, or during holidays and during times of peak demand.
Deposits & Other Fees: we reserve the right to require a deposit for any service during high volume times such as holidays, other peak booking periods and for special one time services such as hotel pet sits.
Please inquire with the office for additional information on fees, or for tips on avoiding excessive waits.
Because sometimes you need a little extra help, too.
Home Security and House Sitting Visits: If you’re away and your pets are with you, we’ll stop by the house to make sure every thing is A-OK, water plants, bring in the mail, rotate your blinds and lights, and anything else that makes your household seem bustling and happily inhabited as usual.
Pet Goods Delivery: We’ll go to the pet store for you and bring the food/supplies on our next scheduled visit.
Attendant Service: We’ll wait for the cable person, piano tuner, movers, furniture delivery person, or plumber, so you don’t have to.
