Hello!

Does anyone have a pet-sitter that they can recommend? I will be away end July/start August for a week or so and am looking for someone to feed, clean and say hi to an adorable little black cat.

Thanks!

I agree with izzybella, it's no-ones fault if a dog is bitten by a snake in it's own garden, it's a tragedy, no-one should be accountable, as long as the sitter did all they could to save the pet (taking him to the vet immediately)... As for losing a pet, again, I am extremely careful with my patients, I assess the safety of a home before I take on a job & I assess the patient... That's the difference between neighbours using me (a qualified vet nurse with 18+ years experience) or using an agency who doesn't know the area, animal behaviour, the breed, veterinary medical knowledge...

I'm sorry but if my dog got bitten by a snake in my own backyard because someone else let them out, I wouldn't want that person to pay. It could have happened to me. I don't check my garden every time I let the mutts out - they're in and out all day. I think in that case the person looking after my dog would probably be just as devastated as I was. All I'd ask for a pet sitter is that they have access to a car and could drive the dog to the nearest vets if there's an emergency. Accidents happen. You have to be pretty heartless to blame someone and then ask them to pay for it.

Not suggesting it would apply to the posters here but supposing the sitter makes off with your valuables..you won't be able to report the theft or claim on your insurance...

I do not have insurance here as it is more of a hobby for me than anything else. I do it for people I know or living locally to me. I do it for the love of the furries than as my 'job'. Insurance only covers things such as needing a locksmith in case of lost keys, damages etc... But TBH as long as your pet sitter is switched on & has a good eye for details & is careful there shouldn't be any need for insurance. Pet health expenses are always covered by the owners... So what if you are pet sitting and the dog escapes and is run over by car? You expect owner to pay for that? Or what about the dog that was let into back yard a few months ago and got bitten by a snake - reported in Gulf News. Things happen. If I was owner and that happened when my pet was being sitted for I would expect the sitter to pay. You might need insurance for those things.

I am a veterinary nurse with 18+years experience in UK & Australia. I was always a pet-sitter for our veterinary clients in central London & although had insurance, never ever needed to use it. I now pet sit for people in Arabian Ranches. I do not have insurance here as it is more of a hobby for me than anything else. I do it for people I know or living locally to me. I do it for the love of the furries than as my 'job'. Insurance only covers things such as needing a locksmith in case of lost keys, damages etc... But TBH as long as your pet sitter is switched on & has a good eye for details & is careful there shouldn't be any need for insurance. Pet health expenses are always covered by the owners... I doubt you'd be able to get insurance for an unlicenced business anyway...
