HOME CARE
Home Care
Your home is part of your companions' environment. During scheduled visits, I can help keep it secure, comfortable & looking lived-in while you're away.
Mail & Package Retrieval
Mail & packages can be brought inside and handled according to your instructions, helping keep deliveries secure & making it less obvious that the home is unoccupied.
Plant & Garden Care
Routine watering & basic care for houseplants, containers & small garden areas can be incorporated into scheduled visits.
Waste & Recycling
Garbage, recycling & compost can be managed according to your collection schedule so waste does not accumulate while you're away.

A NOTE ABOUT CUSTOM CARE
Every household is different. Visit length can be adjusted to reflect the number of companions, their routines, mobility, medication, exercise needs & the amount of home care requested. For households with multiple animals, pricing is based primarily on time and complexity—not simply a per-pet fee.
SERVICE POLICIES
Minimum standalone service call: $50.
Meet & Greets are complimentary for new, recurring, & vacation clients.
Rates are starting rates & may vary for travel, holidays, complex care, special handling or extended time.
Clients provide feeding, medication, emergency-contact and veterinary information before vacation bookings begin.
Armour Equine & Animal Care communicates promptly about significant changes in a pet's condition or anything unusual observed in the home.
General housekeeping, deep cleaning, repairs, extensive yard work and other domestic labour are not included unless separately quoted.
