This post is all about the simple pet sitter instructions that you need to leave behind, so your fur-baby can get the best care while you are away. Here are our 4 tips for a first-time pet sitter, professional sitter or for anyone who needs a pet sitter for their dog.
1. Share Information and Supplies for Pet Care.
Don't send your sitter out to look for pet supplies. Put everything your sitter needs in one central location. This includes food and treats, extra food and consumable supplies in an emergency. It also includes medications (clear written instructions), a leash and collar or harness, paper towels and cleaning supplies. And a broom/dustpan or vacuum cleaner, plastic bags for waste disposal, litter and a scooper. Any specific directions you want your pet sitter to follow should be written out clearly and reviewed.
2. Guidelines for Feeding Your Pet.
How frequently do you feed your pet each day? How much is given to them consistently? Do they have access to treats? If so, are they consistently given to them at a specific time, such as right after a walk? Your dog's sitter will likely follow your dog's daily schedule if you spell out everything in detail.
Additionally, it ensure's that your dog won't be overfed or underfed. Additionally, let your pet sitter know if there is something that they absolutely cannot give your pet. There is food aggression in dogs that your dog sitter must be aware of. Since some pets have allergies, you must list them all. Give your pet sitter all the information they need in writing.
3.Walking Instructions Your pet sitter needs to know where your dog’s leash and collar are and when they need to be walked.
Make sure to mention any issues like aggression towards other dogs, jumping, pulling, etc. Include anything the person needs to know to make sure there are no surprises or problems.
4. Emergency Phone #’s
Provide your email and phone number though they should already have it. Consider including the phone number of the place you are staying.
Ask a friend or neighbor if they could help if there is a problem and include their contact information. Also, include your vet’s phone # and address.
