Gentle Pet Protectors Family- extremely hot temperatures are predicted for our area this week. We will not be doing dog walks, unless they are early morning, to prevent burned foot pads and overheating of your pups. Backyard time, indoor play and cuddles will be given instead of walks until the weather improves. 🐕 😃

It's National Small Business Week, and we want to send a big THANK YOU to professional pet-sitting and dog-walking business owners who provide such a valuable service and are vital parts of our communities.

While using an app to find a pet sitter or dog walker may seem like a quick, convenient way to secure pet care, Pet Sitters International encourages pet parents to seek out the services of a ⭐local, professional pet-sitting or dog-walking business.⭐

Not only does working directly with a local pet-care business help you avoid the “middleman” and put more money into your local economy (apps/third-party sites typically take a portion of your pet-care fee), you are also able to ensure you are working with a pet-care professional that has insurance customized for the care they offer and has taken advantage of continuing education to ensure they are offering quality care.

Looking for a professional pet sitter or dog walker?

Some questions to ask include:

✔Does your business have the proper business license or permit, if required by your state/city/province?
✔Do you have pet-sitter liability insurance that covers the services you provide?
✔Are you able to show proof of a recent background check?
✔Do you use a pet-sitting services agreement that will detail the services we agree to?
✔Are you a Certified Professional Pet Sitter® and/or have you taken advantage of pet-care training such as pet first aid or classes on animal behavior and safety?

Members of Pet Sitters International have access to ongoing resources and training to ensure they stay up to date on the latest pet care and business best practices.

👉Pet parents may download a free Pet-Sitter Interview Checklist at www.petsit.com/finding-the-right-pet-sitter.

To all the wonderful vets, vet techs, shelter workers, animal rescuers and pet care people, Happy Veterinary Professionals Week! ❤️

“Animal care professionals are some of the most pain-saturated people I have ever worked with. The very thing that makes them great at their work, their empathy and dedication and love for animals, makes them vulnerable.”

- Psychotherapist J. Eric Gentry
