Although there’s no place like home, everyone needs to get away sometimes. But many things in our house still need our attention even while we’re away, from bringing in the mail every day to caring for pets. You can use short term pet hotels, for example, but it isn’t always the best choice. Getting a house sitter could actually solve a lot of your problems and leave you with peace of mind while you’re gone.

Fluffy and Fido’s Comfort
Even if they don’t have the verbal language to tell you so, pets are still more comfortable at home, too. No matter how nice a pet hotel might be, most pets still experience some anxiety about being in an unfamiliar environment, far away from the family who cares for them. Obviously, you need to make sure that someone is available to care for your pets while you’re gone, and taking with you is usually not realistic. Choosing to get a house sitter to take care of your pets while you’re gone can make most pets a lot more comfortable.

Home Security
Love animals. Home burglaries are unfortunately more common while you’re out of town. However, when you choose to keep your pets at home while you’re gone and to have a house sitter come over daily to feed and walk your pets, bring in mail and turn on a few lights, it can be a powerful signal to would-be robbers to keep on walking. Hiring a house sitter serves an important double duty: they can both care for your pets and make your home more secure in your absence.

Emergency Prevention
Having a pet is a big responsibility, one that most people take very seriously. You can’t help but worry about whether or not your pet will be safe while you’re away, and you want to make sure they will have enough one-on-one attention to notice potential emergencies right away. In a pet hotel, particularly a larger one, you might rightfully wonder if there would be enough staff keeping an eye on your furry friend. A trained, watchful house sitter could be able to notice sooner if something were to go wrong.

A lot of people think that a pet sitter is a luxury that’s out of reach for the average person, but that’s not true at all! Call Crunch Care today and you’ll see that it’s a surprisingly affordable option. 877-553-4231
