Discussing The Week Long Holiday That Acknowledges And Celebrates Pet Sitters
Being a professional pet sitter is a very gratifying and rewarding occupation. But, it can also be difficult at times and requires a great deal of patience and hard dedication. Thatâs why National Professional Pet Sitters Week was created, to give thanks and respect to all of the hard working pet sitters out there. This article will discuss everything you need to know about National Professional Pet Sitters Week. Additionally, this article will also list some of the many benefits of hiring a professional pet sitter.Â
About The Holiday
National Professional Pet Sitters Week takes place during the first full week of March (March 5th through March 11th, 2023). The holiday itself was created to both acknowledge and celebrate pet sitters for all of the hard work they do. Many people believe pet sitting is an easy job, but this often isnât true. Pets can sometimes be uncooperative, temperamental, and even dangerous. But, professional pet sitters utilize their kindness, patience, and dedication to care for any and all pets.Â
Professional vs Unprofessional
There is a huge difference between hiring a professional pet sitter versus a friend, neighbor, or family relative. A professional pet sitter is usually bonded, insured, certified in pet CPR and first aid, and has a great deal of experience working with pets. Professional pet sitters typically use a pet sitting software to communicate with you and keep you updated on every visit. They inform you of when they visited your pets and how the visits went. Most neighbors, friends, and family canât offer any of these things.
Benefits Of Hiring A Professional Pet Sitter
Hiring a professional pet sitter is exceptionally beneficial to both you and your pets in a variety of ways. Here are just a few of our personal favorite ways hiring a pet sitter can change your life for the better.
Stimulation:
Both dogs and cats need social interaction to maintain a happy and healthy lifestyle. Just like people, pets need to be stimulated. Hiring a pet sitter will keep your pets stimulated every time the sitter comes to visit. Whether itâs playing with toys, going for long walks, or even just some extra scratches behind the ears, professional pet sitters will keep your pets well entertained. To learn more about how physical and mental stimulation affects your dog, check out the Petcetera animal clinic website.Â
Exercise:
Our pets, more specifically dogs, need routine exercise on a daily basis. Exercise is imperative for both a dog’s physical health and their mental health. Without adequate amounts of regular exercise, most dogs will become lethargic, restless, and overweight. A pet sitter always makes sure that your dog will get plenty of exercise during walks and/or visits. A tired dog is a good dog. Â
Happiness:
For dogs, the combination of stimulation and exercise equals fun. Both dogs and cats are very social animals and need more than just food, water, and shelter. Hiring a pet sitter will guarantee that your pets receive the socialization they need to be happy and healthy.Â
Convenience:
Having a professional pet sitter care for your pets is exceptionally convenient. No longer do you have to feel guilty about leaving your pet home alone all day while youâre at work, school, or traveling. A pet sitter will ensure that your fur kids receive the love and care they need even when youâre not around to do so.Â
Dependability:
Here at Top Dog Pet Sitting, we treat pets like family. When it comes to caring for family, you want someone you can rely on. Hiring a professional pet sitter means you’re getting someone dependable that always gives 110% when caring for any pet. Rain, sleet, or shine, a professional pet sitter always shows up when and where theyâre scheduled.Â
Knowing Your Pets Are In Good Hands:
It takes a special kind of person to genuinely love and care for animals. Even more so when it comes to caring for other peopleâs pets. Professional pet sitting isnât just a job, itâs a passion. When you hire a professional pet sitter, you can rest assured knowing that your pets will be happy, well cared for, and loved when youâre not there.Â
