Dear diary, today I am planning my escape...

The best care for peace of mind 

We understand how important your pets are you to. The animals you've brought into your life are more than just pets; they're family members. As pet parents ourselves, we understand. That's why the heart of our business is to provide gentle care where your pet feels most comfortable: in their own home. Our visits are based on the belief that pets do best in an environment they're familiar with. 

With The Prefurred Pet Nanny your pets will always be in good hands. Our pet sitting service includes regular care such as feeding, cuddles and time outside to play, walks, cleaning up after your pets, potty breaks, and administering any medication that's needed. 

We can also take your pets on excursions to or to the vet or groomer. Your pets won't have to worry about missing their social activities through our pet taxi service. 

 

We're also prepared for the unexpected. While you might be able to save a few bucks by hiring your neighbor's teenager, will they know how to properly respond if there's an emergency? We will! We are insured and trained to handle emergencies including how to provide pet first aid

How pet owners can choose the right pet sitter

When you look for a pet sitter you're looking for more than just a dog walker or just someone to clean the litter boxes. You'll want to make sure your pet sitter is right for your pet. As you go about your search, you may want to consider the following things:


What type of care does my pet need?

 

Does your pet need someone to keep them company overnight? Or are they independent and just need a drop in visit at the beginning and end of each day? Does your pet have any special medical needs, dietary restrictions, or behavioral issues? Make sure any potential sitters can handle all aspects of your pet's care

I love you meow and fur-ever!

Credentials and experience

 

You'll want to ensure any potential sitter has experience with your type of pet? A potential candidate may be an expert in feline behavior but doesn't have a way with walking large dogs. Certifications in animal behavior, training, and pet first aid are highly recommended. It's also a good idea to see if potential sitters have passed a background check at some point. 

 

Checking the vibe

 

If it's the first time you'll be leaving your pet for an extended stay with a sitter, it's a good idea for your pet to "interview" the sitter. Arrange a meeting where your pet and the sitter can get to know one another and perhaps spend some time playing. Ask about their experience, any ways they've handled emergencies in the past, and their general philosophy on pet care. 

 

Clear expectations

 

Write down any essential expectations as well as communicating them directly with your sitter. Does Bella get anxious when the garbage collectors pass by? Does Sadie need to do her business at 10pm on the dot? Discuss how often you'd like updates and whether or not you'd prefer a report on how your pet did during the sitting period. 

 

Relax and enjoy!

 

Whether you're at work and just need to concentrate on getting that presentation done, or you're off to dig your toes into a sandy beach, relax knowing that you've found the right sitter for your pet.

Mondays can be ruff...
