Pet Tips
In Home Pet SittersThere are some dogs who just don’t do well in boarding kennels. It may be because they are nervous or scared, the kennel environment causes them undue stress and makes your time away a nightmare for them. The alternative to a boarding kennel is to hire a pet sitter. Pet sitter’s experience can range from professionals with accreditation to friends or neighbors who are willing to house sit. It is more likely that your dog will be cared for properly if you pay for pet sitting services.Some people opt to have a pet sitter stop by twice a day for morning or evening feedings and walks; others want someone in the house overnight. Whichever you prefer, be sure to make clear what you want, socializing, walking, feeding, or giving medications. Be prepared to pay accordingly for additional services. Be sure to check your pet sitter’s references and credentials. Professional pet sitters should be accredited by a professional organization, such as the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters or Pet Sitters International. A good sitter will interact with your dog and work to establish a relationship before returning when you are gone. Ask the pet sitter to feed your dog a few treats to establish a rapport so that he remembers her when she comes to the house. Share this article on In Home Pet Sitters with friends.
