These things include but aren't limited to the following:

* Visits that are guaranteed to be more than 25 min each day (I almost always stay longer, but there is a fee for it to be a guarantee)

*Any sort of daily extensive cleaning that extends beyond basic litter scooping, sweeping, occasional accident clean up, simple/light box or newspaper changes (i.e., rabbits/birds), etc. (fee may applly to multiple trips up and down stairs -- especially carrying things)

* Garden or Plant care that exceeds 5-10 min/is daily/requires multiple trips for water, unwieldy garden hoses, etc (please note that my thumb is a bit more yellow/chartreuse than green but I do my best!)

* More than half an hour of play a day, (if dogs: in addition to walks)
