Why petsitting?

     We all want to feel comfortable knowing our pets will be happy while we are away.  Some of us may worry about them receiving good care and enough attention.   I believe many pets just feel more secure at home.

    I encourage any questions about petsitting, or the services I can offer your family.  I really believe that our pets are as unique as we are, and I will cater my service to best fit your pet's personality and your preferences.

Helpful info for the consultation:

     During our first meeting, there are a few important things I will need to know from you.  Knowing your answers to these beforehand will make sure that you get exactly the care you want for your pets.  Also, there are a couple things that you can do beforehand to make for a smooth transaction.

  • What veterinarian do you use?
  • In an emergency, what course of action would you want your sitter to take?  Some ways of addressing this would be to decide a monetary limit for needed veterinary services, assign an emergency contact to make those decisions in your absence (make sure they can be contacted at all times and that they know they are my emergency contact), or you can leave the discretion to your veterinarian (in other words, whatever is necessary to stabilize your pet).
  • Either have an extra key made, or have a spare available to give to your sitter at the first meeting to avoid having to make an extra trip to bring your sitter the key or leaving your key outside the home, which leaves you vulnerable.
  • It is helpful to make a temporary tag for your pet before your vacation.  This can be as simple as putting a strip of duct tape over the collar that says "petsitter" with my number in permanent marker.  This way, should an outside pet become lost, someone who finds them will call me instead of your number.

 


 

The benefits of petsitting

  •     Your pet develops a personal relationship with the same person each time you are away.
  •     There is no concern about your pet contracting an illness from other pets.
  •     A boarding facility can be stressful, because all the comforts of home are replaced with unfamiliar sights and smells, and often a lot more noise. 
  •    Every pet is unique and petsitting allows you to have your pet's care customized.  This is especially beneficial for senior pets, puppies and kittens, or pets with acute or chronic medical issues, as well as very active dogs who need more playtime.
  •    Your home is checked on while you are away, and the visits can be catered to give your home a more lived-in look.
