   There are many things to consider when you are looking for a pet-sitter. Your pet is a member of your family, so care in choosing the right individual to care for your pet is EXTREMELY important. 

   The first thing to consider, is if the individual you are considering, and your pet, interact well. It is critical that your prospective pet sitter, and your pet have a good relationship.  Also, always interview your prospective pet sitter and ask detailed questions about the care your pet will be recieving. References are always good! Make sure that all rates are discussed beforehand, you don’t want to be surprised when you get home. 

   If your pet has special needs, make sure these are addressed and the sitter is aware of anything that your pet may need beyond the normal scope of care. Finally, make sure your pet will stay in his/her own environment while you are away. Transplanting your pet out of a familiar environment, even for a short time, can be traumatic to your pet. Make sure he/she is comfortable at home while you are away.
