Never let your clients wonder if pets, keys are safe
Last year a pet sitter in Georgia heisted $400,000 in jewels from a client. Early in 2012 a pet sitter in Arizona was arrested after several complaints of neglect and one incident that finally ended in the brutal death of two dogs. A Washington pet sitter is serving 13 years in prison for multiple counts of theft. A pet sitter in Florida was charged in June with felony aggravated assault and felony battery after attacking her client and landing him in the hospital. Worse yet are the recent headlines regarding a convicted animal sexual abuser who was arrested for advertising his pet-sitting service with a popular registry while on probation.
Though most pet sitters, like you, are compassionate, trust-worthy folks, there are bad apples in every profession. With the advent of immediate and far-reaching media like Facebook and smartphone apps, news travels fast, especially bad news!
