As a pet owner, emergencies tend to happen at the worst times, forcing you to leave your pet home alone.  It can be scary knowing that your furry friend is roaming the house all alone, possibly getting into trouble.  Here’s some great tips on how to leave your pets home alone with peace of mind! 

Keep them busy - Leave out several toys as well as food bowl.  Toys and food are great ways to keep your pet occupied.  The more time our furry friends spend doing things, the less time they’ll spend in trouble.

Exercise them before you leave - You and your pet will benefit from some physical activity before you leave for an extended period of time.  This is another factor that will tire them out, leaving them less time for getting into trouble.

Keep dangerous items away - Make sure the house is cleaned of items that may be dangerous to your pet.  Also, safely secure any items that are delicate and can be easily broken.  Pets have a tendency to be clumsy, so pet proof your house to protect you and your pet.

Confine your pet - It’s best to confine your pet to a small portion of the home so that they can’t get into too much trouble.  In that area, leave them an area to sleep, toys to play, and wee wee pads just in case.

Leave without creating a scene - Pets are keen on sensing how you feel, so before you leave try and remain calm.  It’s best to leave without saying much to your pet.  This will help reduce separation anxiety and keep your pet calm throughout your time gone.

Finally, make sure you give your loveable pet some attention when you arrive home.  Everyone knows pets love the undivided attention you give them so they know you’re taking care of them.
