Frequently Asked Questions
Are pet sitters on TX24H background checked?
Yes, all pet sitters listed on TX24H in Texas undergo a thorough background check. This ensures the safety and security of your pets and home. We prioritize connecting you with trustworthy and reliable professionals who have a proven track record of providing excellent pet care. We also encourage you to review sitter profiles and read testimonials from other Texas pet owners.
What should I discuss with a pet sitter before booking?
Before booking a pet sitter in Texas, discuss your pet's specific needs, including feeding schedules, medication requirements, exercise routines, and any behavioral quirks. It's also important to discuss emergency contacts, vet information, and house rules. A meet-and-greet is highly recommended to ensure compatibility between your pet and the sitter, and to allow you to assess the sitter's experience and comfort level.
What happens if there's an emergency while the pet sitter is caring for my pet?
All pet sitters on TX24H are required to have a plan in place for handling emergencies. This includes having your vet's contact information readily available, as well as knowing the location of the nearest 24-hour animal hospital in your area of Texas. They should also have your emergency contact information and be prepared to transport your pet to receive veterinary care if needed. We advise discussing emergency protocols during the initial consultation.
How far in advance should I book a pet sitter in Texas?
It's recommended to book your pet sitter as far in advance as possible, especially during peak travel seasons and holidays in Texas. Popular pet sitters can get booked up quickly, so booking several weeks or even months ahead of time is advisable. For shorter trips or less popular times, booking at least a week in advance should be sufficient, but earlier booking always increases your chances of finding the perfect sitter.
Are pet sitters insured in case of accidents or incidents?
While not all pet sitters carry their own insurance, many professional pet sitters in Texas do have pet sitter insurance to cover accidents or incidents that may occur while caring for your pet. It's always a good idea to ask potential sitters about their insurance coverage and to verify their credentials before booking. Some sitters may be bonded as well, providing an additional layer of financial protection.
What if my pet sitter cancels at the last minute?
TX24H has policies in place to help you find a replacement pet sitter in Texas if your original sitter cancels unexpectedly. We will work quickly to connect you with other available sitters in your area who meet your pet's needs. In some cases, we may be able to offer a refund or credit towards future bookings. It is best to communicate clearly with your sitter about cancellation policies before booking.
