Vacations are exciting but leaving your fur baby behind can be a nerve-wracking experience. I know what it’s like to scramble around the internet googling for reputable sitters in your local area. From my own experience, I know finding a sitter is easy. However, I cannot stress enough about the importance of having a thorough conversation with your pet sitter before you hand over your pup. Truth be told, pet sitters are not mind-readers. They are just normal people who love animals. Therefore, it’s the job of the pet owner to ensure clear communication in order to reduce potential risks. Don’t freak out just yet! The risk of an accident is very low. However, you can use this guideline for your meet and greet to ensure a stress-free holiday.
