If your pet goes missing

  1. Call me straight away.
  2. Search nearby calmly, calling their name and shaking treats. Don't chase.
  3. Ring the vet and local rescue centres, and tell the council's dog warden.
  4. Make a poster at pet-tag.app/lost-pet-poster and share it in local lost and found groups.

What to put on a pet sitter sheet

  • How to reach you, and an emergency contact who's staying in the UK.
  • Your vet's name, phone number and address, and the microchip number.
  • Food: what, how much and when, and whether treats are allowed.
  • Medication, with the doses and times written down.
  • Their routine, habits and fears, like fireworks or the doorbell.
  • What to do if your pet goes missing. The sheet adds the steps for you.

Leave the sheet somewhere obvious, like the fridge door, and send your sitter a photo of it too. Our holiday pet care checklist covers choosing a sitter or kennels, and checking your pet's microchip details before you go.

Questions

What should I leave for a pet sitter?+

How to reach you, an emergency contact, your vet's details, the microchip number, food and medication instructions, their routine, and what to do if your pet goes missing. The sheet puts all of that on one page.

Is the pet sitter sheet free?+

Yes. There's nothing to pay and no account needed. Print as many as you like, or save it as a PDF to send to your sitter.

Is anything I type uploaded?+

No. The sheet is made in your browser, and your details and photo stay on your device.

Should I give my sitter my alarm code or door code?+

Tell them in person or by message rather than writing it on the sheet, in case the sheet goes missing.
