How it Works - What is required of you?
Pet Boarding
You look after client’s pet(s) in your home. The client provides all food and bedding and any toys etc. Your duty is to love, walk, feed, water and groom the pet just as you would your own. You maintain the pet(s) routine in the owner's absence.

You stay in other people’s homes and look after their pet(s) and possessions whilst they are away on holiday. You live in their home and love, walk, feed, water and groom their pets. Water house plants etc. Facilities such as swimming pools, Jacuzzis may only be used with the owner’s permission. You should ensure you do not leave the pet(s) any longer than 3 hours at any one time.
Pet Visiting
You look after pet(s) in their homes. Pawprints UK companions are expected to undertake one hour visits to water, feed and walk dogs or feed and water cats or small animals. You provide companionship during their owner’s absence. Often these are clients that commute to work and require us to care for their pet(s) daily.
Additional duties may require you to take in the mail, draw curtains, switch lights on or off etc.
What is required by Pawprints UK?
- We expect all our Pawprints UK Companions to be an existing or previous pet owner and to have a minimum of 3 years experience.
- You need to be in good health and reasonably fit.
