Leaving your pets behind when you travel can be nerve-wracking, but with the right preparation and a reliable pet sitter, it doesn’t have to be. At Denver Pro Pet Sitting, we’ve created a simple process to ensure your pets are cared for and comfortable. Here are seven key tips to make pet sitting stress-free for both you and your furry friends.

1. Schedule a Meet-and-Greet

A meet-and-greet is the perfect opportunity for your sitter to meet your pets, learn about their personalities, and review your care expectations. This step helps your pets feel more comfortable with a new face and ensures everyone is on the same page. Learn more about how to prepare for a pet sitter visit.

2. Use Our Client Portal

Our user-friendly client portal allows you to:

GPS and Time Tracking: Access GPS and time tracking data from your sitter, providing transparency and peace of mind.

3. Provide Comfort Items

Familiar items can help your pets feel safe and relaxed while you're away. Leave out their favorite toys, bedding, and treats to create a sense of normalcy. If your pet tends to get anxious, consider leaving a small item with your scent, like an old t-shirt, to provide extra reassurance. Stick to their usual feeding and drinking supplies to avoid unnecessary changes. These simple touches go a long way in helping your pets feel at home, even when you’re not there.

4. Keep Emergency Information Up-to-Date

In our client portal, you can update your veterinarian’s contact details and any emergency contacts. This ensures your sitter can act quickly if an unexpected situation arises.

5. Receive Regular Updates

We know how much you love your pets, so we make sure to keep you in the loop. You’ll receive updates and photos during each visit, letting you know your pets are happy, healthy, and well-cared-for.

6. Stick to a Routine
