What to know first
Be cautious if someone refuses basic questions about experience or supervision.
Write down your expectations and ask the professional to explain any details that are unclear.
What to check
Avoid arrangements with no agreed price, emergency process or written details.
A short introductory conversation can reveal whether the arrangements suit your pet and your schedule.
Before you decide
Do not assume a platform listing alone proves qualifications or insurance.
Compare the complete service, not just its headline price. Keep a copy of what you both agree.
