Hey all

Me was finking on offering my services as a snake sitter (and maybe a lizard for a small fee, I was wondering if i needed a liscense or anything like that, i'd only have one or possibly two at a time.

Thx

in my defence it was mums idea :P

Plus what if you get asked to look after a 12 foot Burmese or somat. Would you be confident enough to do that? I know I wouldn't be.

I'd be scared of the animal dying on me. The amount of times people have look after my pets when on holiday and I get a phone call saying they have died XD

ooh, never thought of that stapey x

You may also find that people ask you too look after their pet, they bring it round and you never see the people again as they have dumped a reptile that needs a lot of medical attention and costly vet bills that they don't want anymore.

If you do you will more than likely need to take out insurance incase of any issues arising.



Sound advice, dismiss at your peril

dont think you require a licence. athough insurance is definatly a good idea, there are specific policies avalible for petsitting you could have a look at the narps (national association of pet sitters) web site or gb petsitters to give you an idea about insurance and rates ect

a bit of public liability insurance would probably cover you for any unfortunates and better safe then sorry
