Care For Your New Pet
Pet owners are very loyal to their pets and there is nothing a pet owner will do to make sure their pet lives long and is healthy. Instead of buying a more than one puppy it is better to purchase a single puppy this way the puppy will have a better chance bonding with the owner and it will be easier to will bond to its owner better and will be easier to train than having many puppies. Avoid the temptation of buying two or more puppies. Depending on the breed, the best time to purchase a puppy is between 7-9 weeks of age. The puppy should get used to being around people and other dogs. Your puppy should not be allowed to roam the house freely until he is properly housetrained. A common misconception is that healthy dogs and cats must eat every day when in fact they do not. Smaller breeds are an exception, but even then pet owners must take care not to overfeed.
For a little bit of responsibility, time, and money on your part, you and your family will get a lifetime of love and unconditional adoration. The positive effect a dog can have on your family is amazing.
With all animals make sure the water and food bowls are cleaned regularly, the reason for this is to keep them free from germs and bacteria. Place your pets bowl so it is not in the way of walkways or in places where someone could knock into it. Keeping the area sanitized will help keep your pet healthy. Since medicines for pets are not easily distributed, it would help if you would also ask your veterinarian where the drug shops for pet care are.
Many dogs and even cats become very attached to children. Parasites that are internal and external are mainly responsible for illnesses and diseases seen in the large population of dogs. The common dog flea is the number one health problem facing these pets.
Your pet should exercise and it is important for your pet to eat well. Make sure your pet has clean water and a comfortable place to live. Just like people, pets need the proper exercise.
Vegetables and some fruit in your dog’s diet and a small quantity of such can provide many of these active compounds. For any weight loss program, human or animal, diet is the first essential part.
A pet tag is a very affordable way to help keep your pet around for many years to come. Pet name tags can also be chosen from a variety of materials such as stainless steel, aluminum, brass and even plastic. You want to make sure that your pet tag is made durable enough to last many years, and will not fade or rust. You want to make sure that your pet tag is made durable enough to last many years, and will not fade or rust. 90 percent of pets carrying an identification tag will return to their homes. You should always make sure your pet/dog is wearing his/her id collar tag, the contact information on the tag should be up to date just in case your dog is missing. The ID tag should have your pet’s name, destination address, your name and telephone number.

Would you hire a stranger to take care of your pets while you are on vacation?
What if the stranger was a very responsible 15 1/2 year old girl who gets good grades, is respectful, overall a good kid and charged around $7/day for pet-sitting? And I wouldn’t actually STAY in your house to take care of pets, I would drive to your house every few hours to care for pets,water plants and get mail? What if the pet-sitter planned a visit with you first to get to know you and your pet and got care instructions from you?? Would you hire this person?
any references on this sitter?
other than that I would have to say I would trust her

maybeee but one time a friend let someone take care of their dog and the person who took care of the dog ended up liking it so much they never got their dog back i dont really no the hole story but you should cover liek what they should eat and how much exercise the dog should get and stuff liek that
References :
by what you’ve said , yes. do you have someone who can drop in and see how things are really going?
References :
well if the person was just like you then i think people might but i would make sure that i interviewedthe person first
References :
Im not sure, my dog is picky about ppl, if she knew the person good i would say yes

I would take your dog to a boarding facility. Try to get one where you can see where your animal will be staying. I work at a boarding facility and I make sure the animals are being cared for properly. At least then, you would know that everything is okay.

well first your going to need more than 7$ just to make it up in gas,charge about 20$ that is really cheap even though it might not seem like it,trust me if you just charge 7$ they will take advantage of you…
References :
i am a house sitter and got taken advantage of for 2 months and made 130$ out of it…NOT WORTH IT!
I would consider after interviewing. I would want to know if she has pets; what kind, how many. Has she had previous experience pet sitting outside of her home, etc. If I like her and get good responses to my questions and my baby, Miracle likes her, that is a very good start.
