Considerations When Choosing Pet Care Webinar
2024-03-11 19:00 - 20:00 | Zoom, VA, United States
Just in time for your summer vacation planning, join us for an informative webinar on things you should consider when choosing a dog walker/pet sitter, especially when your pup has some behavior concerns. Join Susan Aceti, owner of Challenging Dogs, as she helps you take some of the guesswork out of choosing a sitter who can meet your dog’s needs.
Finding a pet sitter (or walker) who you can trust to take care of your dog can be very difficult. “I love dogs” isn’t always enough of a qualification for a skilled, reliable sitter or walker. This webinar covers how to select a good sitter based on what your dog needs, how to consider the fear and anxiety your dog may feel in new situations, and issues that may be important to you, including good communication, reliability, and safety. If your dog has behavior challenges, understanding what your dog needs and what a potential sitter needs to know how to do, is even more important.
Susan Aceti is the owner of Challenging Dogs Pet Care – a company providing sitting, boarding, daycare and walking for dogs with behavior challenges. She founded Challenging Dogs in 2021 and before that provided boarding, daycare and walking services via Rover to many fearful and anxious dogs. She had her own anxious dog for 15 years who presented a very big challenge to any potential sitter or walker.
