Why a Pet Sitter?
Hiring a professional pet sitter is an important decision for you and your pet. When you hire a professional pet sitter, you are hiring someone who has made a life commitment to the care of pets. A professional pet sitter not only invests in the life of your pet, but understands your care and concern as an owner. Hiring a professional guarantees that you are hiring someone who thinks of your pet’s needs before their own.
Professional pet sitters protect you, your pet and even your home. A professional pet sitter should be bonded and insured through a company that provides specialty coverage created specifically for professional pet sitters and agencies. Most professional pet sitters require pet owners to sign a legally binding general contract and a veterinarian notification form. These documents protect your pet and you, and ensure that the utmost care is taken while you are away.
Hiring a professional pet sitter means your pets can stay in the comfort and security of their own home. An added benefit is that they will not be exposed to kennel-related diseases or have to endure additional vaccinations simply in order to be kenneled. For many pets, life at a kennel is extremely stressful. This added stress can actually weaken your pet’s immune system and make them more susceptible to disease. Instead, your pet can stay on its daily food, break and playtime schedule, not to mention that it will receive one-on-one personal care. When you hire a professional pet sitter, that specialized attention is included in their fee, not added a la carte as you find at many kennels. This one-on-one approach provides the focus needed to spot acute illnesses, changes in behavior or diet and can prevent medical emergencies before they occur.
Professional pet sitters form strong bonds with the pets they care for. This bond reduces stress, provides your pet with a sense of protection and security, and prevents fear and confusion caused when multiple people are responsible for your pet’s care.
