WHAT TO DO WHEN AT A CLIENTS HOUSE

When  clients are gone, many things have to be done on a daily basis to make certain their pets are safe, secure, comfortable and happy. We go through a checklist every time we visit with their pets.

Cleaning up areas to reduce illness and disease

Turning on and off client security system

Bringing in the newspaper and mail

Watching and signing for packages that might come

Giving the kids clean, fresh water

Giving the kids the proper amount of food

Making sure each kid eats their food

Checking on the welfare of shy or reclusive kids

Restoring the supplies in the proper place

Giving treats (if they are allowed)

Cleaning up any “accidents” or messes that may occur

Watering up to 5 plants (kids are our primary concern)

Having play time with each pet

Cleaning the litter box or Bird cage

Maintaining a comfort level in the home you set

Checking all internal and external doors and windows

Monitoring the condition of the home

Ensuring the house fence perimeter is secure

Changing the lighting arrangement

Making sure kids are in their proper place

Making notes for the owners

Administering medication if needed

Re-locking the house

Taking trash out on trash day and taking litter from home

Watch your attitude, put animals first

Please remember that the hours of operation that you are to be at clients homes is as follows:

Mornings between: 5:00 am and 8:00 am

Midday   between 10:30 am and 2:00 pm

afternoon         about 8 hours after you are there the morning visit

bedtime     between 8:30 pm and 10:30 pm (10:30 is when you should be leaving the last stop or before)

We will not do evenings for clients that are working midnites. If a person wants 9 or 10 pm for while they are at work, we will not do this, without getting approval from Randy

If we are going to an account two times a day, please go at 6 & 6, 7 & 7 or 8 & 8. Do not stretch it out further than 12 hours or shorter than 12 hours unless the client has requested it or if the dogs stay outside.

Make sure to clean the cat boxes each time you go, you never know when a client is going to show up.

Randy or Kristy will call you to let you know that clients are home.

IF YOU ARE EVER SUSPICIOUS WHEN GOING TO A HOUSE, THINGS JUST DOIN’T LOOK RIGHT, CALL RANDY OR KRISTY FIST. WE DON’T WANT ANYONE TO GET HURT, SO PLEASE USE COMMON SENCE.

WATCH FOR LOOSE DOGS, MAKE SURE YOUR CELL PHONE IS PROGRAMED WITH THE EMERGENCY PHONE NUMBER.

YOU ARE ASKED TO CALL OR EMAIL THE OFFICE ONCE A DAY WHEN YOU ARE AT CLIENTS HOUSES. FOR DAILY ACCOUNTS IT IS HELPFUL FOR YOU TO CALL EVERY DAY HOWEVER FOR VACATION ACCOUNTS IT IS A MUST. THINGS HAPPEN AFTER CLIENTS LEAVE, THEY LEAVE NOTES AND TELL YOU SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAN THEY TOLD US OR OTHER THINGS HAPPEN. WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON FOR YOUR SAFETY AND SO THAT THE CLIENTS DON’T TRY THINGS WITH YOU THAT THEY KNOW RANDY OR KRISTY WOULDN’T LET THEM GET AWAY WITH.

DAILY ACCOUNTS CAN PAY WEEKLY, BI WEEKLY OR MONTLY BY CHECK, CASH OR CREDIT CARD

CHECKS NEED TO BE IN THE OFFICE WITHIN TWO DAYS OF RECEIVING THEM FROM A CLIENT. IF YOU CAN’T BRING THEM IN, WE WILL GIVE YOU ENVELOPES AND YOU CAN SEND THEM TO US.

VACATION ACCOUNTS ARE DUE WHEN THEY RETURN HOME, WE DO GIVE THEM A TWO WEEK GRACE PERIOD, HOWEVER IF THEY DECIDE TO PAY ONLINE, THEY MUST PAY WHEN THEY RETURN OTHERWISE THEY WILL BE LATE.

WE DON’T SHARE RESPONSIBILITIES WITH FAMILY, WE DON’T ALLOW PEOPLE TO TAKE PETS AND BRING THEM BACK FOR THEIR CONVENIENCE.

PLEASE THINK OF THE ACCOUNTS THAT YOU HAVE NO PROBLEMS WITH AND THESE SHOULD BE YOUR EXAMPLES, IF A CLIENT TELLS YOU TO DO SOMETHING OR HOW THEY WANT SOMETHING DONE AND IT DOESN’T SOUND LIKE SOMETHING THAT NORMALLY HAPPENS, IT PROBABLY IS SOMETHING THAT YOU NEED TO CONTACT RANDY OR KRISTY ABOUT AND THEY WILL TAKE CARE OF THE CLIENT.
