What to Look for in a Professional Pet Sitter

What to Look for in a Professional Pet Sitter

Posted on February 15th, 2025

Leaving your pets in someone else’s care is a big decision — and not all pet sitters are created equal. Whether you’re booking for the first time or looking to upgrade your current care, here’s what to look for when choosing a professional pet sitter in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.

1. Insurance, Bonding, and Certifications

At Playtime Adventures, I’m insured, bonded, and certified in:

  • Pet CPR and first aid
  • Dog walking and pet sitting
  • Pet psychology and enrichment care

This means your pets — and your home — are protected.

2. Customized, Enrichment-Based Care

I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all care. From scent work to slow feeding mats, our visits are customized to your pet’s needs, age, energy level, and personality.

3. Transparent Communication

A professional sitter should provide daily updates, photos, and clear communication — which I do through our easy-to-use app, Time To Pet.

4. No Double-Booking or Overcrowding

I never overbook. I prioritize safety, routine, and trust above all else.

5. Compassion, Reliability, and Respect

Above all else, you should feel comfortable with your sitter. My clients stay with me because we treat every pet like family, and every home with care and respect.
