Why would I use Allpet House Sitters ?

Does the house sitter stay every night?
The house sitter is contracted to do so.
Will we meet the house sitter?
You will meet the house sitter a couple of times. The first time is to ensure that you and the sitter feel comfortable with each other and so the pets bond with the sitter. The second time is for the sitter to learn the ‘runnings’ of the house and bond again with the pets.
What if the House Sitter is taken ill during the stay?
Allpets will find a replacement.
How can I be sure that the Sitter will look after my pets and property?
Allpets will do regular check ups and monthly inspections to ensure your property is well looked after.
Do I have to pay the House Sitter?
The house sitter has free rent for performing the requests of the house owner.
If my pet is ill, will the sitter take my pet to the vet?
You will leave the vet details in the manual provided by Allpets, the sitter will take the pet to the vet and you will pay the vet upon your return.
