By using our website or working with our team, you accept the practices described in this policy.

We use the information we collect to respond to inquiries, schedule services, manage appointments, process payments, communicate with clients, and maintain service records.

We also use pet care information to tailor visits and follow instructions accurately. 

That helps us provide safer walks, more consistent pet sitting visits, and better support for pets with specific routines or sensitivities.

We may use contact information to send appointment confirmations, service updates, billing notices, scheduling reminders, and direct responses to questions. 

We may also send limited business communications related to our services. We do not use personal information carelessly or for unrelated purposes.

We use website activity data to improve site performance, review visitor patterns, and make the site easier to use.

We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information you share with us. 

We limit access to information to team members and service providers who need it to perform their roles. 

We store information only as long as needed for business operations, service quality, legal obligations, and recordkeeping.

While no method of storage or transmission offers perfect security, we use practical safeguards to reduce risk and protect client information.

When we share informationWe do not sell personal information. We do not rent it. 

We do not pass it to outside parties for unrelated advertising.

We may share information only when that sharing supports the services you requested or when the law requires it. 

That may include working with payment processors, scheduling tools, software platforms, or staff members who need access to complete a service or manage your account.

We may also share limited information when necessary to protect a client, a pet, our staff, or our business. 

That may happen during an emergency, a medical concern involving a pet, or a legal request that requires us to respond.

During services, we may send notes, photos, or GPS-based walk updates to document the visit and keep you informed. 

Those updates form part of the client experience and help clarify service details.

If we ever choose to use a pet photo, review, or testimonial for promotional purposes, we should first have permission. 

We respect client privacy and understand that many pet owners prefer a private service relationship.
