01
Make comfort visible
Record mobility, hearing, vision, sleep, toileting, appetite and medication details. Explain how your dog shows discomfort or asks for help.
Shorter walks and a quieter setting may be more valuable than a busy schedule.
- Medication instructions
- Mobility support
- Sleeping preferences
- Veterinary contacts
- Changes to appetite or behaviour
02
Choose the environment
At-home sitting may suit a dog who finds change difficult, while carefully matched home boarding can work well for others.
Discuss flooring, stairs, garden access and companion dogs during the consultation.
