You’d love to take a quick trip, but what about your beloved pet at home…? When pet owners are away, it’s common to ask family or friends to look after their pets, or to board them at a pet hotel. But if your pet is timid and doesn’t do well in new environments, or has an active personality that doesn’t adapt well to life in a cage at a pet hotel, an pet sitter<\/a>‘s in-home care service<\/strong> might be a great new option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is a pet sitter?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A pet sitter<\/a> is someone who provides pet care services at the owner’s home or at the sitter’s own home. This is already a well-established service in Western countries, where it’s common to find and book an available nearby pet sitter through major platforms like Rover<\/a> and PetBacker<\/a>. In Japan, Fluv<\/a>, pet sitter SOS<\/a>, and Orange pet sitters<\/a> are popular pet sitter platforms trusted by many pet owners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

What pet sitters do<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 In-home care: A pet sitter visits the owner’s home to take care of their pet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Services include: preparing and serving meals, cleaning and tidying the living environment, playtime, and reporting back to the owner. Key feature: You can invite the pet sitter to your home ahead of time so they can meet your pet and get familiar with the environment. This is an ideal service for cats that don’t like going out or dogs with limited mobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No matter which service you use, pet sitters always take photos of your pet and send reports to the owner, so even when you’re away from home, you can check on your pet and feel at ease! Whether your pet stays at home or at the sitter’s place, they’ll receive loving, attentive care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I currently live with two dogs (a Shiba Inu and a Poodle) and two cats (a Ragdoll and a Munchkin). I love cats and dogs so much that I obtained my groomer license last year. I’m here to provide reassurance and support by empathizing with pets who may feel anxious when left home alone, so you can feel confident leaving them in my care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
