What is a holiday surcharge?

Due to the high demand we see around holidays, our sitters have the option to set their own holiday price increase, which you can find on their profiles in the pricing section. If your reservation's dates occur anytime 3 days prior to a federal holiday, on a federal holiday, or 3 days after a federal holiday, you will see a holiday surcharge added on to your reservation.
