When going out of town or for vacation, you don’t want to worry about how your pet is doing at a kennel. These places can be convenient, but having an in-home pet sitter makes it easier to control how your pet is cared for with someone you can trust. This alternative option comes with many benefits.

Why Should You Have an In-Home Pet Sitter?

1. Surroundings Your Pet Knows

Kennels can be stressful for some pets because they have to interact with other animals, or it’s unfamiliar. If it’s possible to leave them in the environment they live in, your pet will be much happier, even if you aren’t around. 

2. Pet’s Needs Are Catered To

You can choose how many visits your pet receives per day and how much time the sitter spends with them. You can also specify how often they should get daily walks and when your pet receives their medication. You can even schedule the sitter’s visit according to your pet’s eating schedule. How your pet is cared for is entirely up to you. 

3. Your Pets Stay Together

If you have multiple pets, you don’t have to worry about them being separated at a kennel. That’s because some kennels only accept single types of pets, like dogs only. In-home pet sitting services allow all your pets to stay together, even if its cats, dogs, and fish. 

4. Budget-Friendly

Hiring a sitter for your pets is a cheaper alternative to boarding because a pet sitter can tend to multiple animals at once, even at a slight cost increase. On the other hand, boarding facilities charge for each pet individually. If you have multiple pets, it might serve you better to keep them together through the services of an in-home pet sitter.
