The advantages of Pet-sitting at home: 1. Professional pet sitters ensure that the pets' specific needs are met, whether it's a particular feeding schedule, playtime, or medication.
2. Maintaining Routine: Pets thrive on routine, and any disruption to their daily schedule can lead to stress and behavioral issues. Pet sitters can maintain the pet's regular routines, such as feeding times, bathroom breaks, and exercise schedules.
3. Separation anxiety is common for pets when their owners are away. Leaving pets in boarding can worsen anxiety due to unfamiliar surroundings and a lack of personal attention. With in-home pet sitting, pets have the comfort of their home and a trusted caretaker, reducing anxiety significantly
4. No Transportation Hassles: Taking pets to a boarding facility often involves a stressful car ride, which many pets despise. 5. Security and Peace of Mind: Knowing that pets are in the hands of a professional pet sitter who can also look after their home's security offers peace of mind. Boarding facilities cannot provide the same level of security for their home, leaving it unattended during their absence.
“Our cats simply hated going to boarding facilities, even the best ones with large private accommodation. They were extremely stressed - hissed and growled at us and each other, and never settled down, even for longer stays,” said Mic, owner of Mic’s Pet Sitting Duo.
Boarding may be a better option if there are limited Home Options: In situations where a pet owner's home environment may not be conducive to pet sitting, a reputable boarding facility can provide a temporary solution.
Ultimately, the decision to choose boarding or pet sitting should be based on what's best for the specific pet's needs and the owner's peace of mind. In most cases drop-in home pet sitting offers numerous clear advantages, there are some unusual situations where boarding may be the better choice to meet the pet's unique requirements.
