Finding a trustworthy pet sitter can be a challenge. Here are some steps to help you: 1. **Ask for referrals**: Ask friends, family, or neighbors who have pets for recommendations. 2. **Check online reviews**: Look up pet sitters in your area on review websites like Yelp or Google. 3. **Verify licenses and certifications**: Check if the pet sitter has any relevant certifications, such as Pet Sitters International (PSI) or the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters (NAPPS). 4. **Conduct a phone or video interview**: Ask questions about their experience, policies, and procedures. 5. **Request references**: Ask for references from previous clients and contact them to ask about their experience. If you need help finding a pet sitter, you can **Request a specialist** through our website. We can connect you with a local pet care professional who can help you find a trustworthy pet sitter. Have you considered what type of pet care services you need (e.g., in-home visits, overnight stays, or dog walking)?

Congratulations on your new furry family member. As a pet concierge, I can provide you with general information on puppy vaccinations. However, it's essential to consult with a veterinarian to determine the specific vaccination schedule for your puppy. Typically, a puppy's vaccination schedule includes: 1. Distemper, Hepatitis, Parvovirus (DHPP) vaccine: usually given at 6-8 weeks old 2. Rabies vaccine: usually given at 12-16 weeks old 3. Bordetella (also known as kennel cough) vaccine: usually given every 6-12 months 4. Leptospirosis vaccine: usually given annually Please note that the vaccination schedule may vary depending on your puppy's age, health, and lifestyle. I recommend consulting with a veterinarian to create a personalized vaccination plan for your puppy.

Flying with your dog can be a bit complex, but I'm here to help. The rules vary depending on the airline, destination, and type of flight. Generally, most airlines allow dogs in the cabin or as checked baggage, but there are restrictions and requirements: 1. **In-cabin pets**: Typically, dogs must be in an approved carrier that fits under the seat in front of you. 2. **Checked baggage**: Dogs can be checked as baggage, but they must be in an IATA-approved crate. 3. **Service animals**: Trained service animals are allowed in the cabin, but you'll need to provide documentation. 4. **Exotic destinations**: Some countries have specific regulations or restrictions on bringing pets. To ensure a smooth flight, I recommend checking with your airline directly for their specific pet policies and requirements. If you need help with this, you can fill out the "Request a specialist" form on this page, and we'll connect you with a travel expert who can assist you. Next step: What type of flight are you planning (domestic, international, short-haul, or long-haul)?
