Pets can often struggle when their human is away from home. They rely on us for comfort and security, but they’re also emotionally attached to us. This means that they can become distressed when we leave and they don’t understand why. A good pet sitter will know how to calm and soothe pets in their own home, but you can take some preparations before your departure. For example, leaving them alone for an hour or two a day and gradually increasing your time away for a week or so before you go is a good idea. If your pet is used to you being away during the day but at home at night, you could also ask friends or family to stay with them overnight or take them to their home overnight so they become more used to spending the night without you. If you have serious concerns about your pet, however, book a virtual vet appointment with Vetster to get a veterinarian’s advice.
