How I Can Help

Every home is different, and so is the care it needs. From a cat in town to a barn full of animals, I'll tailor everything to your animals, home, and property in Camas, Washougal, and the surrounding areas.

Meet & Greet: $30 ($40 with additional pets)

Farm & Livestock Care

Feeding and fresh water, collecting eggs, mucking stalls and cleaning coops, checking fences, gates, and shelters, and keeping a close eye on everyone's health so nothing gets missed.

Rates:
Farm visit (up to 30 minutes): $40

Meet & Greet: $40
Before your trip, we'll walk your property together so I can meet your animals, learn their routines, and go over your intake paperwork. It takes about 45 minutes. Please schedule it at least two weeks before your trip when possible.

Home & Property Care

Home check-ins starting at $30

No pets? No problem. Whether you're traveling for a weekend or away for the season, I'll keep your home safe, cared for, and looking lived-in, with the eye of an experienced property manager.

What's Included
Bringing in mail and packages, taking trash and recycling to the curb and back, watering houseplants and gardens, rotating lights and blinds so your home looks occupied, and walking through to check for leaks, power outages, or anything out of the ordinary. I'll send photo updates so you know all is well.

Home check-in visit: $30
Daily, every-other-day, or weekly visits available.

Walkthrough: $30
Before you leave, we'll walk through your home together so I can learn where everything is, like your water shutoff, breaker box, and alarm system, and go over your intake paperwork. It takes about 30 minutes. Please schedule it at least two weeks before your trip when possible.

Garden Design & Consulting

Garden services starting at $45 per hour

Whether you've just moved in and don't know where to start, or you're ready to breathe new life into an existing garden, I'll help you plan, plant, and care for a space you love. For the past nine years, I've helped people establish gardens of all kinds, and my time living and working on a 30-acre farm taught me what thrives here, from vegetable beds to flowering borders.

What's Included
Walking your property together to talk through your goals, suggesting plants that suit your soil, sun, and style, designing layouts for garden beds and landscapes, and helping with planting and ongoing care as your garden grows. I can also keep your garden watered and tended while you're away.

Rates:
Garden consulting and design: $55 per hour (one-hour minimum)
Hands-on garden help (planting, weeding, ongoing care): $45 per hour
Larger design plans or projects: custom quote based on size and scope
Garden watering while you're away: included with home check-in visits ($30)

Travel fee: +$10 per visit for homes more than a 20-minute drive from me. Farther than 35 minutes? Reach out for a custom quote. Not sure? Just ask!

Booking & Policies

A few simple policies help me give every client reliable, dedicated care. Please read them before booking.

Payment
Full payment for pet, farm, and home care, including your Meet & Greet or Walkthrough, is due at that first visit. Garden design and consulting work is billed weekly, at the end of each week. I accept cash, check, Zelle, and Venmo.

Travel
Rates include travel to homes within a 20-minute drive of me (the shaded area on the map). Homes 20–35 minutes away have a $10 travel fee per visit, and homes farther than 35 minutes receive a custom quote. I'll always confirm your total before anything is booked.

Cancellations
Booking your dates means I turn away other clients, so I ask for as much notice as possible if your plans change.

14 or more days before your first visit: full refund of visit fees
7 to 13 days before: 50% refund
Less than 7 days before: no refund

Meet & Greet and Walkthrough fees are non-refundable. Visits canceled because of an early return with less than 7 days' notice are not refunded. For garden sessions, please give at least 48 hours' notice to reschedule.

Holidays
Holiday availability is limited. Holiday bookings (Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, and New Year's Day) are non-refundable once confirmed.

I'd love to hear about your home, animals, and garden, and talk about how I can help.
