Our Petsitting Ethos
At Pentland Petsitting we believe that going away should be a stress-free experience for both you and your pets without the need for arranging kennels or catteries. Most pets do not like being away from home especially in unfamiliar surroundings. Many pets suffer some degree of anxiety in boarding situations which no owner wants for their four-legged friends. With our service you can relax in the knowledge that your pets will be happy and your home will be safe and secure.
How does it work?
At Pentland Petsitting your animals will be expertly cared for by a professional carer. Your pets stay in the comfort of their own home and myself or another sitter visit them as and when required to feed, play and generally care for them just as you would. Before an assignment begins we come out to visit you for a free consultation and also to meet the animals and work out what you require. During the consultation we go over all aspects of the services needed and get you to complete a petsitting agreement form. This ensures we have all the essential details to care for your pet. We also take a set of keys for access. On every visit we check the house is secure and move any mail from doorways. We can also look after your plants and put the bins out. We can care for any type of animal no matter how large, small or numerous! As well as the usual small furries we are able to care for reptiles, birds and a variety of other more unusual pets.
Animals cared for:
Dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, mice, hamsters, gerbils, chinchillas, chipmunks, ferrets, budgies, cockatiels, lovebirds, parrots, finches, tortoises, terrapins, iguanas, geckos, frogs, lizards, snakes, spiders, stick insects, scorpions, sheep, goats, pigs, cows, horses, donkeys and even kangaroo's and penguins!
