ABOUT MY SERVICES - DAILY VISITS

Going away and just need someone to check up on your pets 1-2 times a day?

It sounds like daily visits are the service for you!

Daily visits are a 30 minute checkup on your pets 1-2 times a day. This is the perfect service for pets that are comfortable being on their own and just need that visit to get their meals and check on their wellbeing.

I spend 30 minutes with your pets during each visit. During visits your pets are fed, I clean up their areas and top up and refresh water, and we have a play!

I currently do not offer walks for daily visits but I do hope to be able to introduce them to visits upon request in the future.

Please keep in mind that I do not offer petsitting in my own home for the health and safety of my own pets.

2025 BOOKS OPEN

As 2024 is quickly coming to an end, I thought I’d post a calendar update.

I’m changing up how I’m going to be posting updates for 2025 to make it easier for new and existing clients to see exactly what my availability is like.

🟥 = FULLY BOOKED for ALL SERVICES.

My books are open for new and existing clients! I take bookings via Facebook messages as well as if you contact me via the phone number linked to my page!

It is always easier to contact me via a message than it is a call as I do work full time Mon-Fri but I will always do my best to get back to you as soon as I can.

Keep an eye on my page over the next few weeks for updated posts about the services I offer!

ABOUT MY SERVICES - OVERNIGHT STAYS

Does your pet prefer that bit of extra company during the night?

Will having someone stay with your pets through the night help ease your mind whilst you’re away?

It sounds like overnight stays are the service for you!

When booking overnight stays, please keep in mind that I do work full time Monday to Friday so I unfortunately am not able to be with your pets all day every day, but I will be with them throughout the night and on weekends.

Please keep in mind that I do not offer overnight stays in my own home for the health and safety of my own pets.

In November 2023 I had the honour of taking this handsome boy to his pawrents wedding!

Before and after the ceremony, George enjoyed some time mingling with all of his pawrents friends and family!

Congratulations to the happy couple! Thank you for allowing me to help make George’s wedding appearance possible!

Here’s some signs/symptoms that your dog may display if they’ve got heatstroke.

Post by Morpeth Veterinary Hospital

We are expecting extreme heat conditions for the next few days ☀️ If you need to walk your dog, we recommend you do this very early morning. If you are unable to hold your hand flat on the road for longer than 3 seconds, it is too hot for their paws. Please keep them cool and safe for the next few days!

How can you keep your pets cool during hot weather?

• Make sure that your pets have access to multiple sources of water around your house and yard. Don’t give your dogs ice water. Offer single ice cubes instead.

• Make sure your pets have access to shade at all times of day. Gardens, kennels, shade cloths, umbrellas, outdoor tables, sheds, ect.

• Walk your dogs early in the morning or late in the afternoon. Try to take routes on your walk that have shade along it.

• Wet your pets paws. The water on their feet will help keep them cool.

• Apply pet safe sunscreen to your pets ears and nose to protect them from the sun. You can find pet sunscreen at most pet supply stores.

Don’t forget to look for signs of heat stroke. If you notice any signs or symptoms, contact your vet and keep your dog cool.

DON’T FORCE ME TO BE SOCIAL!
We expect that dogs should naturally like all other dogs and want to be friends, after all they’re the same species! Many owners have the expectation of their dog happily interacting and befriending other dogs at parks or when out walking, thoroughly enjoying the chance to engage with the same species, but the reality is often very different, leaving owners feeling frustrated and irritated and wondering what’s wrong with their dog.
Dogs are not that different from us when it comes to social preferences. As people, do we like every person we meet? Do we want to be friends with everyone with meet? Are we all social beings who love to be surrounded by people? The answer is no, but somehow, we assume that our dogs should be.
The sociability scale of dogs is influenced by early socialization and experiences, genetics, environmental factors, what they have learned through life experience and their own individual circumstances. Certain breeds are naturally more reserved than others.
Early socialization, habituation and positive experiences are vitally important and should not just stop after puppy hood, but ideally continue throughout life. A dog’s social tolerance can be improved or may even change through careful behaviour modification and management, but sometimes, we just need to accept that our dog is just not that into other dogs and that’s ok. Every dog is an individual and once we have done all we can to improve their social abilities we need to just accept and love them for who they are and never force them to be something that they’re not.

Calendar update 🗓

I am FULLY BOOKED for ALL SERVICES until 2023.

Thank you for the continuous support!

When people book with Morgan’s Maitland Petsitting, I like to know as much about your pet(s) as possible. I organise a meet and greet with new clients to not only give you and your pet(s) a chance to meet me before a booking, but to allow you to see how your pet(s) and I interact with each other.

I bring a “Get to Know Me” sheet for you to fill out before the booking with any information that I may need during the booking. This includes sections for you to write information about your pet, details about feeding, behaviours, and anything else that you feel I need to know.

Here’s a little rundown of the information you can put on your ”Get to Know Me” sheet.
