Pet Care
Keeping your pet is often a primary reason people choose to stay in their own home longer. Caregivers can help with the daily chores associated with pet ownership.- Feeding
- Walking
- Light grooming
- Making pet appointments
- Pet transportation
- Giving pre-dosed, regularly scheduled medications except injections
- Cutting pet nails
- Handling or disposing of animal feces
- Handling of aggressive animals
Allergies to animals are not uncommon.
Ensure that the service provider is aware of any animals in the home and has a system to filter out the caregivers who are not a match.
Pro-tip: If a pet owner is in the hospital, caregivers can provide pet care at home while they are away and bring the pets for a visit if the individual can come outside.
