Finding the best pet sitter for your pup!

The Pawesome Pet Sits Guide

As a dog owner, it can be tough to find a reliable and trustworthy

dog sitter. But fear not, because the team at Pawesome Pet Sits is

here to help you sniff out the best dog sitter for your furry friend!

Follow these five pawesome steps and you’ll be wagging your tail

with joy:

1. Do your research. When contacting pet care providers, it’s

important to ask the right questions to be sure that your dog is

in good hands. Don’t be afraid to ask about their experience

with dogs, their availability, and their pet care philosophy. Be

on the lookout for licensing, insurance and awards – without

this, you’re barking up the wrong tree! We at Pawesome Pet

Sits pride ourselves on being a team of fully insured pet-lovers,

providing a safe and professional pet-sitting service as well as

making sure your doggie feels like an A-list celeb.

‘Licensed and insured? I’m all ears!’

2. Have a stalk. Before you let someone watch your precious

pooch, make sure they’re legit. Check out their social media

pages to see what they post about, what other dog parents are

saying, and to get a sense of their overall vibe. At the

Pawesome Pet Sits page, you’ll see live pupdates of what our

doggy best friends are up to, as well as getting to know our

team and having the chance to win goodies (and let’s be honest

– who doesn’t love goodies!)

3. Let them meet your furry friend. It’s impawtent for your dog

and the sitter to meet and get to know each other before the

sitter takes over. This will give your dog a chance to sniff them

out and see if they’re a good fit. It’s like a doggie first date! Any

good pet-sitting company will provide a complimentary meet-

and-greet, both for your peace of mind and the chance for your

pup to meet their new fur-ever friend.

‘Hi, I’m Leo, welcome to my crib!’

4. Go over your dog’s needs. If your dog has any special needs,

make sure your sitter knows everything they need to. Whether

it’s a dietary restriction, medication, or a particular routine, you

can rest assured knowing that your sitter is ready to tailor their

stay to your pup’s needs. Don’t be afraid to give too much

information – knowing your furry pal’s walk routine can be just

as important as making sure 2pm treat time isn’t forgotten!

blanket

5. Do a test run. If it’s the first time you’ve gone without your

pooch, or you want the extra peace of mind, have the sitter

watch your fur baby for a short period of time to make sure

everything runs smoothly. This extra time can help your pup

become besties with the sitter, get some extra cuddles, and

even experience one of our paws-itively perfect off-street

walks.

‘Sunny walks + feeling the wind through my fur = pawfect!’

By following these five steps, you’ll be well on your way to finding

the best dog sitter for your furry friend. Whether you’re looking for a

dog sitter in Milton Keynes, Northampton or the Wirral, we’re here

to help. Get on the dog and bone, or drop us a message on social

media if you’re curious. And remember, if you’re ever in doubt, just

follow your dog’s lead – they always know best!
