More information on pet sitters

Pet sitters come to your home to care for your dog or cat in its own environment. This is a good choice for pets that are nervous or get stressed easily by changes in routine. Some sitters drop by your home throughout the day and take your dog for a walk. Others may stay at your home for the duration of your trip, even staying the night.


What to ask before you book a pet sitter

Before your trip, ask your veterinarian and friends who own pets for pet sitting recommendations. Once you have a few reputable pet care options to choose from, meet potential sitters in person and introduce them to your cat or dog. Pay attention to how they interact.

When you find a pet sitting service that seems perfect for your cat or dog, give them a dry run. Let them care for your pet overnight or for a weekend.

The following questions will help you decide whether or not to book their services:

  • How long have you been in business as a professional pet sitter?
  • Are you a licensed and insured for pet sitting?
  • Do you have references from previous clients can contact?
  • What is the cost of your pet sitting and dog walking services?
  • How far in advance should I book your services?
  • Will you sleep in my house or visit during the day?
  • How many times per day will my pet be fed, played with, and exercised?
  • Will my pet be around other animals? If so, will their interactions be supervised?
  • What are your requirements for vaccinations?
  • Are you qualified to handle special needs pets?
  • What happens in case of emergency?
  • What are your cancellation policies?


Dog and cat sitter red flags

There are a few tell-tale signs that your cat or dog sitter doesn’t offer the best service. Keep an eye out for the following red flags. If you notice any, look elsewhere for pet care.

  • They can’t provide you with any references.
  • They don’t get along well with your pet.
  • They aren’t comfortable administering medication to your cat or dog
  • They are vague about when they will be at home with your pet.
  • They don’t have the licenses and insurance that is required in your area.
