Prior to the pet-sitting assignment, have a thorough discussion with the pet owner about their expectations, the pet's routine, dietary needs, any medical conditions, and emergency contacts. Make sure you have a clear understanding of the pet's behavior, likes, and dislikes.

Pets need more than just the basics; they need companionship and affection. Spend quality time with the pet, play with them, pet them, and show them that they are cared for. This helps reduce any separation anxiety they may be feeling.
