Pet Sitters

If your pet gets anxious when you’re away, a good pet sitter could be your saving grace. Your precious pooch or feisty feline remains in the comfort of their own home and continues on with their regular schedule, while receiving lots of love from their sitter! Pet sitters can also check on the rest of your home, like watering any plants that are getting a little droopy. Before your sitter arrives, make sure your pet is okay welcoming people into their home, prepare your house for their stay, and write down any specific care instructions for your pet. Now, rest assured that your pets are in loving hands and enjoy your vacation!

Boarding Kennels

Rather than getting a sitter while you’re gone, you can also take your pet to a boarding kennel, a sort of “hotel” for animals. These facilities provide opportunities for your pet to socialize with other animals and people, while also being a comfortable spot for them to eat, sleep, and play. Since your pet will be around other animals, make sure they are updated on any vaccinations or treatments and let the boarding facility know of any behavioral issues that could arise. You can also leave an unwashed item of clothing with your pet so they can be comforted by your scent while you’re gone.
