❄️🐶 With the approaching, some families are going on well-deserved . We can’t always take our dogs and some of us may hire pet sitters or ask friends to watch them while we’re gone.
👇Here are some tips when leaving your dogs with a pet-sitter:
1️⃣ Get referrals and references.
2️⃣ Ask them to meet your dog several times before you leave.
3️⃣ Don't allow the pet sitter to have them off-leash. They will not act the same with a stranger as they will with you.
4️⃣ Have them double-leash your dogs: a leash attached to a well-fitted martingale (non-slip) collar with another leash attached to a well-fitted harness or a slip lead.
5️⃣ If they have a fenced-in yard, check the fence to make sure there are no gaps.
🚫NEVER allow the dog outside (even in a fenced-in area) unattended.
Please, take care of your dogs and don’t just hire anyone. Your dog is counting on you! ❤️🐶
