Job Sharing with Other Pet Care Providers
(Friends, Family, Neighbors Included)
For safety and insurance reasons, Rainy Day Pets does not share active pet care responsibilities with other caregivers.
If another individual enters your home during a scheduled visit:
- •• Our responsibility ends immediately
- •• We are not liable for any incidents occurring outside our direct supervision
If you plan to have overlapping care, this must be discussed in advance.
Guests Staying in Your Home or Other Workers Present
If guests, house sitters, cleaners, contractors, or other workers are staying in your home while services are active, this must be disclosed in advance.
Rainy Day Pets may decline or modify services if:
- •• Safety concerns arise
- •• Access becomes inconsistent
- •• Liability becomes unclear
If someone else enters your home during our scheduled service window, our responsibility ends immediately for that period.
Clear communication protects everyone involved.
Weather Policies
We operate in all typical New York and Westchester weather conditions.
However, safety always comes first.
In the event of:
- •Severe storms
- •Flooding
- •Snow or ice hazards
- •Extreme heat or cold
- •Unsafe driving conditions
We may:
- •Adjust visit times
- •Shorten outdoor walks
- •Shift portions of the visit indoors
Your pet will still receive the full visit time whenever safely possible.
If a city or state declares an emergency, services may be canceled for safety. Clients will be notified immediately of any schedule changes.
