Title:- Tips to Have a Contented Experience as Pet Sitter Dogs are one of the best companions to be around but when you decide to start pet sitter business, but it goes beyond just playing with the dog and taking him out on a walk. Of course, you will need to ensure you have the legal requirements in a place like pet sitting business insurance, licenses, and a CRB check to begin with, but you will have to follow some practices to maintain your relationship with your clients. As a professional dog walker, you would be responsible for the well being of the dog and you would be expected by the dog owners to follow agreed and safe methods while taking care of their pet. So, how would you ensure that the owner as well as the dog are completely happy with your services and reward you with the best recommendations and reviews? After all, you need to keep your dog walking business running and for that, you need to maintain the finest record with your clients.

Here are the top 3 tips that would help you set things right with your client and pets: Tip #1: Meet Before You Begin Make sure that you have an introductory session with the owner before you care for the dog. It is a good idea to take the dog for a walk with the owner too so you can get used to their behavior and make sure you are both comfortable with the dog. Tip #2: Plan Ahead Get details about the habits and medical requirements of the pet from the owner and ask them if there is anything in particular about the dog that you should be aware of. Subsequently plan your time with the dog keeping his health, behavior, and age in mind. Tip #3: Get the Permissions Ensure you have the correct paperwork in place. For example, if the owner insists letting the dog off of a lead, make sure they sign the off lead disclaimer form so that they take responsibility. Also, ensure you have permission to walk the dog with other dogs if they are ok with this. Begin with Preparation A pet sitting business will require you to register for some legal formalities like dog walking insurance and a criminal record check if you are holding keys. Ensure you are prepared before you start taking dogs by looking at how you plan to operate and getting proper systems in place for things like hot weather, walking more than one dog at a time or what


you will do in an emergency to cover yourself against any damages that might occur on the job. If all this seem like a lot of tasks for you then just register with NarpsUK and enjoy the benefits that come along to provide you a base for the start-up.
