We all love our pets (sometimes a little too much)! Which reminds me…I heard on the radio there is a dog hotel that has WiFi, so you can Skype with your dog, too cute! Oh I’m getting off track….
Basically, TBC just wants to know beforehand if you have a pet or not. Sometimes and unfortunately we have allergies to pets, and we must notify our sitters if there will be a pet at the location of babysitting. It’s purely for safety reasons!
As a babysitter, if you are going to someone’s house that has a pet they will give you the 411 with what to do and what not do with the pet. You may need to just open the back door and let the dog out, the cat can’t go near the baby, the fish needs to be fed but the kids like to do it, and so on. They know if their pet is aggressive and should have him locked up if necessary.
Now, if you are going to a park, or leaving the location of babysitting you can never let a child pet or touch other people’s pets. This is a rule of The Babysitting Company’s, and again, it is for safety reasons!
If there is a true emergency, first and foremost call 911. Click Here for animal safety tips!
