FAQ
(the fine print)

What days and times are you available to meet me?

 

My schedule is fairly flexible, which allows me to meet any day of the week. 

As for timing,  I prefer to meet between 10am and 11pm.   

Overnights and multi-day dates always extend past this, and I always love to accomodate requests. However I prefer to fall asleep around midnight & always need at least 8-9 hours of privacy to rest and return to you in the morning with fresh breath and a newfound enthusiasm for intimacy.

If you would like me to reserve the room then I'm happy to take care of it for you, and I'll add that to the deposit.

Are you able to meet on short notice?

 

I'm usually not available on short notice. Unless it's a very tempting offer. You're welcome to ask but please be thoughtful about it..

Do you require deposits?

 

Yes I ask for a 30% deposit to secure all bookings. Occasionally I do ask for a larger deposit or the rate up front if it is a last minute request. 

 

I prefer that the remainder of my consideration be given in cash.

 

If you'd like to pay the remaining balance in full electronically it must be done at least 3 days prior to our date.

 

Deposits are non-refundable, except in the extremely rare case that I am unable to make our meeting and we are unable to find a suitable time to reschedule within three months. 

 

If I have to cancel for any unforeseen reason I always make things right.

 

What forms of payment do you accept?

I offer a few discreet payment options.  I'm happy to work with you to figure out which method will be best. I find that most clients like to pay via electronic payment, card in person, or cash.  I prefer cash. For the first appointment you must pay the remaining 50% in cash. After which I can figure out an arrangement if you prefer not to.

Please inquire at least three business days in advance of our meeting if you wish to pay more than my deposit electronically.

 

How should I present your fee to you upon meeting?

 

I ask that you present the rate in cash in an unsealed envelope at the very beginning of our date.

 

 If we meet in a public space, kindly hand me the envelope inside of a greeting card or gift bag.

 

If I am hosting you at a private space, please leave the envelope in plain sight, and excuse yourself to the bathroom so that I may take care of it. If I’m visiting you at yours, then please leave it on the bathroom counter in plain sight.

I will excuse myself to take care of it & then we'll begin our date.

 

What is your cancellation policy?

 

My time is extremely valuable to me, just as yours is to you. 

If we’ve made plans to meet, that means I have declined any number of other offers to prioritize our time together, and have already paid for travel & accommodations.  Please keep this in mind and respect the time, preparation, and expense that I put into our dates.  I appreciate as much notice as possible should you need to reschedule or cancel, though I do always try to make things work.

Cancellation & Rescheduling Policy

If you request to reschedule with more than 48 hours notice, in most cases, I will be happy to apply your original deposit toward our newly rescheduled date of the same duration or longer, within three months of your original booking date. 

For all cancellations, and for rescheduling with less than 48 hours notice, your original deposit is forfeit as an inconvenience fee. This covers my time and travel, as well as accommodations, and any number of other considerations.

For 24 - 48 hours notice, an inconvenience fee equivalent to 25% of the original booking total is required.

For 8 - 24 hours notice, an inconvenience fee equivalent to 50% of the original booking total is required.

Within 8 hours or less of our date, including no-showing, the full rate will be due. 

The remaining fee will be invoiced and charged via discreet online payment and must be paid within 48 hours of our scheduled booking. 

If you are running late for our meeting, please understand that I will likely still have to end our tryst at the time we originally planned, though I always do my best to be accommodating if I am able to do so.

Thank you for understanding! 

Do you accept reviews?

No, I do not.  However, there is no shortage of companions who do not mind reviews at all.  If you absolutely must write a review, then please book someone else. To some it's no big deal, but to me it is a violation of privacy.

 

The time that we share is private and intimate.  I respect that, so I also ask that you do the same.  

I kindly ask that you don’t share details of our time together with others, including anywhere online. 

I am extremely firm about this - please expect to be blacklisted if you violate this policy. 

If you are absolutely delighted by your experience with me and feel so inclined as to write a positive testimonial for my website, I would love that. Please use respectful language and email it to me. On the other hand, if you dislike anything very strongly during our time together I do expect you to be an adult and to tell me directly. I prefer direct communication.

Will you act as a reference for me after we meet?

I am always happy to provide an honest reference on your behalf. However, I prefer to only provide references for established clients (those who I have seen already for at least 2-3 times)  I am simply not able to be a reference if you’ve seen me only one time.

When you want to list me as a reference for another companion, please contact me first to let me know you'll be doing so and which companion I can expect to hear from, as this protects everyone's privacy.
