Why is Doggie Daycare so important? You could always just leave them alone in the house right? Tied up somewhere in the backyard? With a friend?

These are all good (cheap) solutions, but what's easy might not be what's best for your pet. Daycare is important for the same reasons children's daycare is. It teaches your pet important social skills, which is especially important during early years. Plus, your pet's individual needs can be better met by professionals. Hyper dogs will have an outlet to let out all their energy, instead of having it all pent up only to be released when they see you at the end of your long work day.

Find a Pet Sitter In Your Local Area through Planet-Pets Services Directory!

http://www.planet-pets.com/petsits.htm is a great way to find local pet-sitters fast.

Once you find a pet sitter in your area, the Humane Society suggests you ask the following:

• Can the pet sitter provide written proof that she has commercial liability insurance (to cover accidents and negligence) and is bonded (to protect against theft by a pet sitter or her employees)?
• What training has the pet sitter received?
• Will the pet sitter record notes about your pet, such as his likes, dislikes, fears, habits, medical conditions, medications, and routines?
• Is the pet sitter associated with a veterinarian who can provide emergency services?
• What will happen if the pet sitter experiences car trouble or becomes ill? Does she have a backup?
• Will the pet sitter provide related services such as in-home grooming, dog walking, dog training, and play time?
• Will the pet sitter provide a written service contract spelling out services and fees?
• If the pet sitter provides live-in services, what are the specific times she agrees to be with your pet? Is this detailed in the contract?
• How does your pet sitter make sure that you have returned home?
• Will the pet sitter provide you with the phone numbers of other clients who have agreed to serve as references?

Remember, you wouldn't trust your kids to just anyone, and you should do the same for your pets.
