Planning a trip is exciting, but making sure your home and pets are taken care of while you’re away is just as important. These free house and pet sitting checklists will help you organize everything your house sitter or pet sitter needs before you leave.
Whether you’re preparing a house sitting checklist, a pet sitting checklist, or both, you’ll have one convenient place to keep important information and instructions.
Knowing everything at home is taken care of allows you to relax and enjoy your trip with confidence.

What Should Be Included in a House and Pet Sitting Checklist?
A good house and pet sitting checklist does more than remind someone to feed your pets. It helps your sitter know where to find important supplies, who to contact in an emergency, and how to care for your home while you’re away.
Every trip is different, so customize your checklist based on your pets, your home, and the length of your vacation. The more detailed your instructions are, the more confident you’ll feel knowing everything is taken care of while you’re gone.
