Holiday Pet and Horse Care

PetzCheckIN Pet Care

Prepare, the Holidays are upon us by PETZcheckIN™

Going on a wonderful trip or meeting with family for the upcoming Holidays? Don’t forget to also make preparations for your pets. Do not wait until the last minute or you may be scrambling to find a pet care person. There are many pet sitting services that you can access online or you can tap your neighbor or nearby young people. The grooming services, or even your vet may have a list of people who care for pets . Frequently the person working the phones or the front desk at the vet office want to make some extra money themselves or know of someone who will do home care. Also if you have a college nearby, there are students who do not go home for the Holidays and may love having a home to spend a few days instead of their usual digs!

Whomever you use just make sure that they come to meet your pet(s) well in advance and that they are not totally inexperienced. Even if the pet care person is an adult, have them come over and meet your pet(s). If you are using a school age child, it would be good to have one of the parents come over also as I can guarantee that the child will want their help at some point. And please write everything down!! A photo with your pet name helps as remembering pet names is not easy.

I must tell you that from experience, the best laid plans can go astray. Last year our neighbor had arranged for someone to come stay at their place to care for their pets. Guess what? We had the blizzard of all blizzards and no one could get anywhere. Fortunately we noticed the horses were not being cared for and took care of it. Another neighbor took in the dog. But what if we had also been gone- the horse waterer was frozen and they had no food and no shelter- you all know what could have happened!!

Yes, there is the option of taking them along but speaking from experience- it is not welcoming to have relatives show up with pets when you do not have a house for indoor pets. If you are taking your pets along, please ask your host prior to showing up at the front door.
Now, to make your trip wonderful and worry-free, there is a service available called PETZcheckIN. This service will make sure your pet care provider will receive a reminder call and when they get to your place, you can have them call an “800” number to make sure they are feeding and caring for your pet(s), you can even have them call when they leave so you know how long they were in attendance. One of the wonderful services provided is a “back-up plan” – you list someone (up to three) who can be called to care for the pets if the care taker fails to arrive. Oh, they even have a service where you put in all your pet information and it is stored, ready for your use when you need it!! The really great thing is that they are offering a FREE TRIAL so there is no risk to you. Go to www.PETZcheckIN.com (our neighbor will be using the service)!

Your pets will be safe and secure and you will know that they are being cared for or that your back-up plan has been activated! HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!
