Welcome to K9 Cardio Fitness LLC (also referred to as “K9CF,” “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of our services, website, and communication systems. By booking an appointment, submitting payment, or otherwise engaging with K9CF, you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms.
1. Services Offered
1.1 Treadmill (Slatmill) Sessions
K9CF offers mobile treadmill sessions for dogs at the client’s residence, at a designated park, or in designated business parking areas. We provide both single and double-dog runs. Each dog must complete an individual consultation prior to full participation.
1.2 Consultations
All dogs must complete a consultation session prior to booking full treadmill services. This applies to all dogs, including those from the same household.
1.3 Pet Sitting and Enrichment
Pet sitting visits may include leashed walks around nearby neighborhoods, trails, or parks; supervised play in secure fenced yards; indoor rest periods; and enrichment activities such as trick training and basic command reinforcement.
2. Packages and Subscriptions
2.1 Eligibility
Packages and subscriptions may be used by any dog within the same household, provided each dog has completed a consultation.
2.2 Validity
Sessions do not expire. Subscription plans are managed through Wix Plans and renew automatically unless paused or canceled by the client prior to renewal. Subscription pauses may be done via your Wix client portal without losing credits.
2.3 Refunds and Transfers
Once a session has been used from any package or subscription, the plan is non-refundable. Sessions may not be transferred to anyone outside the household. No partial refunds are provided for early cancellation after renewal.
3. Booking, Payments, and Cancellations
3.1 Booking Methods and Confirmation
Appointments may be scheduled through our website, by phone, or through direct social messaging. Appointments are auto-confirmed using Wix Bookings. However, K9CF reviews each booking for service area eligibility. If your location is outside our service area, your appointment will be manually canceled and fully refunded with no fees. Clients are responsible for maintaining accurate contact details and checking for confirmation emails or texts.
3.2 Payment Terms
We accept credit and debit cards and cash. Payment may be made at the time of booking or at the time of service unless other arrangements are made.
3.3 Cancellation Policy
Appointments must be canceled at least three (3) hours in advance to avoid a cancellation fee. Late cancellations or no-shows are subject to a $15 fee or deduction of one session from a package or subscription.
3.4 Missed Appointments
Missed appointments without notice are not eligible for rescheduling or refund and will result in the forfeiture of that session.
3.5 Pet Sitting Payment
Pet sitting visits must be paid in advance unless otherwise agreed upon in writing.

4.1 Health Conditions
Clients must disclose any known injuries, medical conditions, or behavior concerns before any session is provided.
