Pet sitting visits in Kenya

Home pet visits following written feeding and access instructions

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional holiday booking: make six thirty-minute visits over three days to one household with two adult cats. The owners provide labelled food, litter, instructions and veterinary contacts. Include feeding, fresh water, litter scooping and a discreet visit note. Exclude overnight attendance, injections, clinical assessment and any guarantee that a frightened cat will allow handling. The owner approves a missing-cat and access-failure plan before departure.
