Here’s what we’ll cover during the required Meet and Greet: *Comfort Level: Ensure you and your pet feels safe and at ease with me and the environment. *Routine Details: Discuss feeding, exercise, medications, and other care requirements. *Behavioral Insights: Share any quirks, likes, dislikes, or triggers I should know about. *Home Tour: If your pet will stay with me, I’ll show you the spaces they’ll use, including the fenced yard and areas for rest and play. *Clarify Emergency Protocols: Review contact information and vet preferences in case of an emergency. The Meet and Greet is a great opportunity to ask questions, address concerns, and ensure we’re a perfect match for your pet’s care. My priority is creating a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for your furry family member. Feeding Guidelines: *Follow Your Instructions: I’ll stick to the exact feeding schedule and portion sizes you provide to maintain consistency and prevent any digestive issues. *Special Diets and Restrictions: If your pet has dietary restrictions, food allergies, or is on a special diet, please share specific details and instructions. *Medication with Meals: If your pet requires medication with their food, I’ll administer it as directed. Please provide clear instructions and ensure all medications are labeled. *Feeding Times: Let me know your pet’s usual feeding times so I can stick to their routine. *Treats: If you’d like me to give your pet treats, please let me know how many and what type are allowed. *Food Storage: Provide enough food for the entire stay, along with any necessary items like bowls, measuring cups, or storage containers. *Access to fresh water all 24/7 If your pet has any quirky eating habits, such as needing encouragement or preferring a certain spot to eat, I’m happy to accommodate to make them as comfortable as possible! Flee & Ticks: Your pet should be free of flees and ticks prior to their stay. My Home: Your pet’s health and comfort are my top priorities, and I maintain a clean and safe environment for their stay. Here’s how I ensure sanitation and cleanliness in my home: *Daily Cleaning: Food and water bowls are washed after every use to prevent bacteria buildup. Floors are swept and mopped regularly to keep the space clean and free of debris. *Waste Management: All pet waste is promptly cleaned up from the yard and disposed of properly to maintain a hygienic environment. *Sanitized Sleeping Areas: If your pet uses a crate or bed you provide, I’ll ensure it stays clean and comfortable throughout their stay. If accidents occur, I’ll clean and sanitize promptly. *Fresh Water: Water bowls are kept clean and refilled with fresh water throughout the day. *Clean Toys: Any toys provided will be cleaned as needed, especially after outdoor play. *Safe Environment: My home is pet-proofed to avoid hazards like choking risks, sharp objects, or accessible harmful substances. Your pet has supervised toy time to avoid choking or swallowing of toys. If your pet has specific cleaning or maintenance needs for their crate, bed, or belongings, let me know, and I’ll happily follow your instructions. A clean, comfortable space helps ensure a happy and healthy stay for your pet!
