Dog Sitting:
Finding a reliable dog sitter can be a difficult task. It is important to carefully consider what qualities to look for and what questions to ask when hiring a dog sitter. First and foremost, it is important to find someone who is experienced and has a genuine love for animals. It is also important to make sure that the sitter is qualified and has the necessary experience for the job. Checking references and qualifications is also essential to ensure that the sitter is up to the task.
In addition, it is important to ensure that the sitter is knowledgeable about the needs of your specific breed of dog. Familiarizing the sitter with your home environment is also important in order to ensure that the sitter is comfortable with the surroundings and will be able to take care of your pet in a safe and secure manner.

What preparations should I make for the dog sitting?
When it comes to pet sitting, being prepared is key. From researching local pet sitters or dog walkers and stocking up on necessary supplies to establishing a routine for the dog’s care and preparing an emergency plan, there are a few essential steps you’ll need to take to ensure your pup is taken care of.
Before you start the dog sitting process, it’s important to do your due diligence and research local pet sitters or dog walkers for references and availability. You’ll also need to create a routine for the pup’s care, including meals, exercise, and grooming.
Additionally, it’s essential to prepare an emergency plan for medical care in the event of an emergency, as well as stock up on necessary supplies such as food, toys, and leashes.
Lastly, familiarizing yourself with the local laws and regulations regarding dog sitting is essential.
How much time will you spend with the dog?
When it comes to pet sitting, it’s important to consider how much time you will be spending with your pup. The amount of time you dedicate to your pet will largely depend on the breed you choose. Generally speaking, 30 minutes to an hour per day of exercise and playtime should suffice for most breeds. However, some active breeds may require more attention and engagement. Age also plays a role in determining the amount of time spent with your pet. Puppies require a significant amount of socialization and attention, while an older dog may be content with shorter and less frequent activities. It is important to keep these factors in mind when considering pet sitting.
What measures do you take if the dog has an accident?
Accidents can happen, especially when it comes to potty training a pup. It is important for pet owners to remain calm when this occurs and not punish the dog for the accident. Cleaning up as soon as possible is key, and using an enzymatic cleaner to remove any odors is an added bonus.
Pet owners should also consider retraining the dog to use the bathroom outside or in the designated area. Praising them when they do can help prevent future accidents and ensure that your pup is well-trained.
Do you provide toys and treats?
When it comes to your pup, you want to provide them with the best possible care. At Sitting Canine, we understand the importance of providing your pup with quality toys and treats.
