As I am sitting here typing this, I am listening to the weather. Yet again, another snowstorm is going to blast through North Andover. What to do?
Well, as you are hunkered down in your home, looking out the window at the never ending snow, I recommend PLAN A TRIP... Why not, you deserve it, it has been a very long winter. Have pets? Don't let that stop your plans. There are several reputable pet care services in our community.
I've been working in pet care for over 11yrs and I have tackled hurricanes, snowstorms, power outages and floods. Mother Nature and I have had our differences but in the end we both understand the pets still need to be care for.
If you are looking for a pet care provider here are a couple helpful tips:
1. Insured & Bonded
2. Registered Business with the town
3. CPR certified
4. Accomplishments in the industry and in the community
Common questions to ask:
1. What type of animal experience does the person have? ( holding a leash doesn't count)
2. How many dogs will be walked together at the same time
3. Who will have the key/access to your home
4. Is the business affiliated with any organizations within the pet/business industry
5. References
Pet Sitters International is one of the top business organizations in the pet care industry. They have announced this week is National Pet Sitting Week - a week dedicated to the hardworking and loving people that care for your pets.
