Free owner checklist

Prepare your home and pet-care instructions without last-minute stress.

Before in-home pet care, organize access instructions, everyday routines, food and supplies, medication details, emergency contacts, behavior disclosures, and home-specific safety information. A clear written plan helps the sitter follow the pet’s familiar routine and identify questions before the owner leaves.

Information reviewed

Home and access

  • Confirm the full care address and how entry will work.
  • Test keys, codes, gates, locks, and alarm instructions before the booking.
  • Identify rooms or outdoor areas that are off-limits.
  • Explain trash, thermostat, lighting, and other home details only when they affect care.

Pet routine and supplies

  • Write down feeding amounts and normal meal, walk, potty, play, and sleep times.
  • Set out enough labeled food, medication, litter, waste bags, and cleaning supplies.
  • List hiding places, triggers, escape risks, handling limits, and calming routines.
  • Provide owner, emergency-contact, and veterinary information that is current.
