FAQ
1) What does a pet sitter do?
Caring pet owners know that most pets adjust better to their owner’s absence and
experience less anxiety and stress when they can remain their home environments.
Pet sitters make this possible with daily visits to your home. In addition to meals,
exercise, playtime and cleaning litter boxes or cages, professional pet sitters may
also administer medications, walk dogs and perform other pet-care duties. That’s
why in-home pet care is the choice of pet owners and the “pet-preferred” method of
vacation and travel care.
Pet sitters may also provide vital home-care services while you are away, including
mail or newspaper pick up, plant care and watering, placing trash outside for pickup
or rotating the lights and opening or closing the blinds to make your house look lived
in. A professional pet sitter provides peace of mind for everyone.
2) What are the advantages for my pet?
Reduced Stress. Your pet stays in its own familiar secure environment where all the
sights, smells and sounds say “Home!” Diet and Exercise. Customary diet and
exercise routines are followed, with no interruption to upset your pet. No “Travel
Trauma.” Travel in a vehicle to a boarding facility or kennel may upset your pet.
Clean environment. With a pet sitter, there is minimal exposure to the illnesses of
other animals. TLC. Most importantly, your pet receives love and personal attention
while you are away.
3) What are the advantages for me?
No “Travel Trauma.” You won’t be inconvenienced or upset by transporting your pet.
No Imposition. You don’t have to impose on a friend, neighbor or relative to care for
your pet, but instead rely on a pet care professional who will put you pet’s needs first.
Security. Your home is made more secure by the crime deterrent services provided by
pet-sitting services. Peace of Mind. While you’re away, you can feel confident your pet
is in capable, caring hands. Special Services. Pet sitters can provide additional home
services while caring for your pet, such as watering plants and bringing in the mail.
4) How do I prepare my home and pets for a pet sitting service?
Preparation can make a big difference in how smoothly things go for your pet when
the pet sitter comes to visit. Here are some tips:
1) Make sure the pet sitter has a phone number where you can be reached.
2) If inside services are requested, provide the pet sitter with a house key in
addition to garage door
openers. If you have new keys made, try them out to make sure they work.
3) Clean food and water dishes before leaving town.
4) Provide extra food, litter and other supplies just in case you’re not able to return
when planned.
5) Clean out the refrigerator to avoid smelly food spoilage and wash the dishes in the
sink to prevent ants, flies or other pests.
6) Adjust the thermostat to keep the house comfortable for the pet during your
absence. In warm weather, a closed-up house can get dangerously hot in a short
time.
7) Leave a list of phone numbers in case the pet sitter needs to contact service or
maintenance companies while you are away; i.e, plumber, electrician, cleaning
service, yard maintenance, pool service, etc.
8) Tell the pet sitter of any household areas that are off-limits to your pets or to the pet
sitter. Secure access to those areas before leaving home.
5) What can I do to help my pet sitter take the best care of my pets?
You can help your pet sitter be a better friend to your pet by helping to make sure there
are no problems while you are away. Planning and preparation in the following areas
will smooth the way:
1) Tell the pet sitter about all health problems your pet may have—major or minor.
2) Provide written verification that your pet is up to date on its vaccinations.
3) Make sure your dog’s collar fits—Otherwise he may slip out of a too-large collar
while being walked.
4) If your dog is not accustomed to walking on a leash, practice with him before you
leave.
5) Make a list of your pet’s favorite hiding places. This will prevent the pet sitter from
worrying if your pet is not where expected—the sitter will know where to look.
6) If you own both dogs and cats, do not ask the sitter to “just ignore the cats;” i.e, not
charge, during pet-sitting visits. A sitter’s professionalism, ethic responsibility and
conscience would not allow the oversight of a cat in need of food, medical care or
human attention.
7) If your dog growls or snaps at a pet sitter during a "get-acquainted visit,”
understand that the pet sitter may ask that you make other arrangements for your dog’
s care during your absence.
6) Other tips:
1) Make pet sitting reservations as early as possible. This will allow ample time to
schedule a "get-acquainted visit” if you are a new client. And booking early is
essential if you are leaving during a holiday season or popular vacation time (such as
August).
2) Call if you plan on returning early or late.
