| Overnight Pet Sitter Question I am planning a trip to Disney next fall and I can't take my babies. My pet walker quoted me $65.00 a day for staying over. Is that a reasonable price? I live in NYC. I looked on rover.com and saw ads for $20-40 a night. I would prefer my dog walker as Boomer and Thumper already have a relationship with her and her company is insured in case anything happens to them. Also, she takes really cute pics of them when I am away. Also, how is the fee typically calculated does it go by nights or days need? For instance I will need her to come in the evening the first night and I return in the afternoon/early evening the last night.

| I work for a company that charges $85 a night; that includes 4 walks/let-outs throughout the day. I am actually not sure what she does if you don't need her until evening on the first night. She likely gives a discounted price. I'll have to ask her.

| Thanks for the feedback. I heard back from my walker and its one evening and one morning walk, feeding, and staying overnight. Not sure if she will stay during the day as she has other clients and works another job. I am ok with that because I trust her more than if I hired someone from rover.com. I feel the price is high for just two walks compared to others but she is worth it and my babies love her.
