How does the sitter get into my home when I&#8217;m away?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through a pre-visit, the sitter comes to your home in advance to meet your pet for the first time, check the location of care supplies, food bowls, litter boxes, and cleaning items, and get to know your pet&#8217;s personality. During this visit, you can discuss key handover arrangements with the sitter. Typically, owners hand over keys through their building&#8217;s concierge or management office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. How are pet sitters selected? Is it safe to trust a stranger?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fluv&#8217;s pet sitters are animal lovers with pet care or volunteer experience who undergo identity verification and training before registering as sitters. Owners can check sitter ratings and reviews through Fluv&#8217;s review system, making it easy to choose a sitter you can trust with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. My pet is very shy around strangers \u2014 is it okay to use a pet sitter?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your pet is shy and takes time to warm up, the pre-visit allows your pet and the sitter to meet for the first time and build trust. If you&#8217;re still concerned, you and the sitter can discuss together whether this type of care is the right fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your pet is aggressive, a pet sitter service may not be suitable. This is not only to protect the sitter, but also to prevent accidents caused by your pet becoming overly stressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. My pet needs medication or wound care \u2014 can a pet sitter help with that?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have special needs, you can book a pet sitter with medical care skills.
