A familiar face at the door
We learn the small things.
The slow corner on the walk. The cat who watches from the stairs. The bowl that belongs in exactly that spot.
THE HOUSEHOLD NOTE
Their usual
is our starting point.
Oatwhistle is a small pet care service for dogs and cats in Maple Crossing. The sitter you meet is the sitter who visits. We agree on each visit’s timing and keep your instructions close.
Every visit ends with a short update. If a routine changes, we check with you before changing the plan.
A meet-and-greet first.
Allow 30 minutes, free of charge, with you and your pets at home. We go through food, walks, sleeping spots and the way your pets like to be approached.
- Meet at their pace. Let them come closer when they are ready. We talk through behavior, habits and anything that makes a visit easier.
- Walk the routine. Show us supplies, doors and the usual walking route. We record your care instructions and backup contact.
- Try the key together. We check access with you present. Keys carry a household code, never a street address, and their return is agreed before care begins.
- Confirm the plan. You receive the visits, dates, total cost and cancellation terms in writing. We confirm only when the arrangement fits your pets.
Care at home, planned together.
Walks and drop-ins are available daily, 7am–8pm. Overnight stays run 8pm–7am; daytime care is separate. We do not offer boarding, group walks or unplanned visits.
For holiday travel, allow time for the meet-and-greet before your departure. Request Thanksgiving care by November 11 and winter holiday care by December 9, 2026.
Leave a plan. Come home to a familiar routine.
We start by meeting you and your pets, together.
