Before watching pets, it’s important to know key details that will help keep them safe, happy, and comfortable. I like to ask about their daily routine, such as feeding times, walking schedules, and any special habits they have. It’s also helpful to know about their health, including allergies, medications, or conditions I should watch for. Understanding their temperament is just as important, whether they’re shy, energetic, or need extra patience around other pets or people. I also like to ask about their favorite toys, treats, or activities so I can make them feel at home, as well as any rules the owner prefers, like furniture boundaries or training cues. Having this information ahead of time helps me give the best care possible while making sure their pets feel loved and secure.

When I watch pets, I love to keep them active, happy, and comfortable by engaging in fun activities that match their personalities. For dogs, I enjoy going on walks, playing fetch, and spending time outdoors to let them burn off energy, while also mixing in cuddle time and relaxation if that’s what they prefer. No matter the pet, I always make sure to follow their routine, provide plenty of attention, and add little touches of fun, whether through play, training games, or simply sitting with them so they feel loved and cared for while their owners are away.
