The Benefits of a Pet Sitter

Whilst most of our business is based around Home Boarding, we have recently added a new service for dog sitting.

 

This is where someone stays in your home and looks after your dog in their own environment.  We have found this can be a great option, for lots of reasons!

 

  • Not all dogs are suited to home boarding. They may be more nervous or unsure of new environments, so having their home comforts really helps when they’re owners are away.

 

  • It may also be that you have multiple dogs, or dogs we don’t have a suitable Holiday Home for. Dog sitting can ensure they are kept together and dogs we can’t find a Holiday Home for can always find a match in our sitters!

 

  • Other pets can be looked after at the same time too. Rather than need a separate option for your cat, chicken, rabbits etc our sitters can look after them too!

 

  • Having someone stay at your home can also provide some home security and can mean plants are kept watered too!

 

  • Your dogs are treated like the sitter’s own dog and are given all the love and attention they need, with sittings spending lots of time at your home with them playing, cuddling up with them on the sofa with them and taking them for lovely walks.

 

  • It can be a big thing, opening your home to someone. But you can meet your sitter beforehand to make sure you are happy and comfortable with them and we can even arrange for them to take your dog on a walk or too so they get to know them as well.
