The weekend we left our pets at home. Alone.

3/15/2015

Our family prepared for a trip… We did not plan on anyone coming to our house while we were gone to check up our pets.  We left extra food and extra water in their bowls thinking that it would be enough to last them the weekend.  We have two cats named Mickey and Ramsey and a dog named Bob.  They normally all get along.  So we packed up our luggage, got into our vehicle, and left.

Our kids were jumping in their seats with excitement to see their loving pets that they missed so dearly.  As we made our way to the door, we were not expecting the sight that we would see on the other side.  When we opened the door we all stopped in astonishment.  It looked as if a tornado had blown through our house.  The curtains were in a pile on the floor, the couch cushions had been chewed to bits, and the carpet was full of stains.  As we slowly made our way to the kitchen we were in for another surprise.  Their food dishes were empty but the bags of food were tipped over and the food was scattered out all over the floor.  It also appeared that Bob had gotten into the garbage and dragged it all around the house.   There still had been no sight of any of our pets though.  We searched all around the house and finally found them on our son’s bed; all three of them snuggled in together sleeping.  It took hours to get the house spotless again.

As we were preparing for our next trip we knew that there was no way that we were going to leave our pets unattended again.  A friend suggested we call Pet Sitters Plus, and we did.  On our trip we had no worries about our pets because we knew that they were in good hands.  When we got home it was as if we had never left.

    Debra,
    Pet Sitters Plus

    I live in Gardnerville, NV and have owned my own pet sitting service since 1994. When I first entered this field there was not really anyone to turn to for help. Help on how to grow the business, no specialized forms to make life easy and no one to share the dos and the don'ts. No one to call. So I had to learn and create all my own stuff from scratch. I learned a lot of stuff the hard way. Well after 18 years, I have grown Pet Sitters Plus to well over 600 clients. I have created my own forms and have trained others in how to start, run and be a successful pet sitting service.
