Leaving your pet in someone else’s care can be nerve-wracking. You want to know they’re safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away.
Not all pet carers are created equal. Finding the right one means looking beyond availability and cost. You need someone who truly understands your pet’s needs.
Here’s what to look for in a professional pet sitter and why Lonely Pets Club is the perfect choice for your pet’s care.
What to look for in a professional pet sitter
1. Experience and training
Not everyone who loves animals knows how to care for them properly.
A professional pet carer should have experience handling different breeds, temperaments, and medical needs. They should also be confident in managing unexpected situations, whether that’s a nervous pet, a sudden illness, or an escape attempt.
How Lonely Pets Club delivers: Our pet carers are experienced and trained to handle all kinds of pets, from playful puppies to senior cats with special needs.
We’ve been caring for pets for over 20 years, so we know what we’re doing.
2. Reliability and professionalism
The last thing you want is a pet sitter who forgets visits, cancels last minute, or doesn’t follow instructions.
Reliability is non-negotiable when it comes to your pet’s wellbeing. A professional pet sitter should provide a structured service with clear communication and a proven track record of being dependable.
How Lonely Pets Club delivers: Our pet carers show up when they say they will. We operate with a structured booking system, so you’ll never be left scrambling to find last-minute care. Plus, ir you want it, we keep you updated with visit reports, so you always know how your pet is doing.
3. A pets-first philosophy
A great pet carer puts the animal’s needs first. This means they don’t just show up, fill the food bowl, and leave. They take the time to provide companionship, ensure your pet is comfortable, and keep an eye out for any health or behaviour changes.
How Lonely Pets Club delivers: Our entire service is designed with a ‘Pets First’ approach. We tailor our visits to suit your pet’s routine, whether that means extra playtime, cuddles, or just some quiet companionship for an anxious pet.
4. Flexibility and convenience
Your pet’s needs come first, but your schedule matters too. A good pet sitter should fit in with your plans, whether you need daily check-ins, weekend visits, or extended care.
How Lonely Pets Club delivers: We make pet care easy. Our services are flexible, so whether you’re heading away for a long weekend or working late, we’ve got your pet covered. Our online booking system makes scheduling simple and stress-free.
5. Security and peace of mind
Inviting someone into your home to care for your pet is a big deal. A professional pet sitter should be police-checked, insured, and operate with transparency.
How Lonely Pets Club delivers: All our pet carers are police-checked, fully insured, and operate under a professional code of conduct. Plus, we’re a registered business with a reputation built over two decades. Your pet, and your home, are in safe hands.
