March of the Cats, day 5.
Well today is March 5th. And guess what, your right it snowed again today. Ahhh it has to end sometime. My poor babies are craving the sun as is their momma. Alright as I mentioned I would have questions for you to ask a prospective pet sitter. These come from the Humane Society of the United States.
1. Can the sitter provided written proof of commercial liability insurance. And are they bonded.
2.What training have they completed.
3.Will the sitter record things about your pet while you are gone, likes, dislikes, fears, medical conditions.
4.Is the sitter associated with a vet who can provide emergency medical care.
5.Does the sitter have a qualified backup system in place in case of personal emergencies.
6.Will they provide services such as grooming, walking dogs, and or cats, and playtime.
7.Will they provide a written service contract, that lists services and fees.
8.Does the sitter have phone numbers of clients who will give references.
These are good questions to ask, and if you need more info on hiring a pet sitter talk to your vet. Remember to also pay attention to how they interact with your pets, this is just as important as any question you can ask. Well Miss Sophia is requiring my attention so got to go. Say Good Night Miss Sophia. Needy kitty.
