When Should I Hire a Moorestown Pet Sitter?

Hiring a Moorestown pet sitter is ideal anytime your plans take you away from home, whether you’re planning ahead or dealing with an unexpected schedule change, here are some ideal times and situations to consider hiring a pet sitter: 

• Vacations or Business Trips: When you’re out of town for an extended period.
• Long Workdays: If your work schedule keeps you out of the house for most of the day.
• Medical Needs: When your pet needs special care or medications that require specific attention.
• Special Diet: Pets with unique dietary requirements need consistent, careful feeding schedules that can be difficult to manage away from home.
• Last-Minute Plans or Travel: If unexpected travel comes up, our professional sitters can provide immediate assistance.
• Senior Pets: Older pets often prefer to stay in familiar surroundings rather than adjust to new environments.
• Anxiety: Pets dealing with separation, social, or rescue anxiety benefit greatly from staying in a safe, familiar space where their routine remains unchanged.

Is In-Home Pet Sitting Right for Me?

In-home pet sitting is perfect for pets who prefer the security of their own surroundings. If your pet gets anxious around other animals, doesn’t do well in kennels, or simply loves their cozy home environment, then an in-home sitter is a great fit. 

If any of the following sound like your pet, an in-home sitter could be an ideal fit:

• Anxious Around Other Animals: Pets who don’t do well in kennels or around many animals.
• Reactivity: Pets that react strongly to other animals, people, or certain environments often feel more secure staying at home where their triggers can be minimized.
• Routine Lovers: Pets that need specific feeding times, medication schedules, or other habits.
• Homebodies: Those who simply love their own cozy home environment.

Our pet sitters work around your pet’s routine, ensuring they get custom care that’s all about their unique needs and preferences.

What Kind of Pets Will My Pet Sitter Care For?

Our Moorestown in-home pet sitters are experienced with a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, small mammals, and even some exotic pets. Whether it’s taking your dog for a midday walk, playing with your cat, or caring for your rabbit, we’ve got it covered. Each pet, regardless of size or species, gets the individual attention they need to stay content and comfortable while you’re away.

Here is a list of pets we care for:

In-Home Pet Sitting vs. Pet Hotels and Boarding

The biggest advantage of in-home pet sitting over pet hotels and boarding is comfort and continuity. In-home pet sitting allows your pet to remain in a familiar setting—no strange places, no new odors, no unfamiliar sounds. This familiarity reduces stress and makes the experience smoother for both pets and owners. Unlike pet hotels, where attention is divided among many animals, your pet will receive undivided, personal care from a professional sitter.

Safety Protocols for Our Pet Services

Sileo Pet Services knows how important it is to keep both your pets and your home secure. That’s why our sitters follow established safety protocols:

• Meet n Greet: Before starting any services, we schedule a Meet n Greet to understand your pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, allergies, and other important details. During this meeting, we also establish entry and exit methods and introduce you to your dedicated pet sitter.
• Arrival and Departure Updates: Our sitters always send a quick text message when they arrive and when they leave, so you’re never left wondering about your pet’s well-being or your home’s security.
• Secure Entry: Your home’s security is just as important as your pet’s happiness. We ensure that your home is always properly locked upon each visit, and we adhere to all special instructions you provide regarding safety and access.
• Insured, Bonded, and Vetted Sitters: All of our pet sitters are insured and bonded, offering an extra layer of protection for your pets and your property. We conduct extensive background checks and reference checks on all contractors before they begin working with us. Rest assured, no one will ever come into your home whom you haven’t met personally—your dedicated sitter from the Meet n Greet will be the only one providing care to your pet.

What Sets Us Apart from Family, Friends, Neighbors, or Students on Break?

While family, friends, neighbors, or even students on break might seem like convenient options, their help often comes with risks. Life commitments, inexperience with pets, or last-minute cancellations can leave your pet in a vulnerable spot. With Sileo Pet Services, our professional sitters are reliable, trained, and insured—meaning no last-minute surprises and dedicated, qualified care every time.

FAQs About Moorestown In-Home Pet Sitters

How far in advance should I book a Moorestown pet sitter?

It’s recommended to book as soon as your travel plans are finalized, especially during peak holiday times when our sitters are in high demand.

Can my pet sitter give medications to my pet?

Yes, a few of our dedicated sitters are experienced with medication administration, ensuring your pet gets the medical care they need.

Will I receive updates about my pet?

Definitely! We understand how important it is to stay connected. You’ll receive arrival and departure texts and photos throughout the service about your pet’s activities and well-being.

What happens during the Meet n Greet?

During the Meet n Greet, our sitter will learn about your pet’s daily routine, specific needs, and favorite activities. It’s also a great opportunity for your pet to meet the sitter and get comfortable before any dog walking, drop in visit, extended sitting, overnight sitting, 24-hour sitting, and private dog training services are provided.

Can Sileo Pet Services care for reactive pets?

Yes, Sileo Pet Services is experienced in caring for reactive pets. We understand that reactivity often stems from anxiety, overstimulation, or specific triggers, and we take a patient, compassionate approach to ensure these pets feel safe and comfortable. Our sitters are trained to follow strategies that minimize stress and help your pet maintain their routine.

However, it’s important to note that we do not handle pets with a history of aggressive behavior that may pose a safety risk to themselves or others. During our initial Meet n Greet, we evaluate your pet’s needs and behaviors to determine if our services are a good fit. If you have a reactive but non-aggressive pet, we’d be happy to discuss a care plan tailored to their specific triggers and comfort zones.
