Panda Pet Services Terms & Conditions
Introduction
All pets & owners will be interviewed by Panda Pet Services for suitability. At this stage, the owners can ask any questions at length with no obligation.
Dog Walking
Daily dog walking consists of a 30/60 minute walk depending on the dog's requirements. In the case of extreme weather conditions, e.g. heavy rain or snow, or pet injury/ illness, or on owner request, the dog will be given a shorter walk or time in the garden/outside to relieve him/herself
The owner must ensure that the dog is up-to-date with their vaccinations, flea and tick treatments and de-wormer treatments.
All male dogs over the age of 9 months must be neutered.
No female dogs who come into season for the duration (2 – 3 weeks) will be walked.
Written consent is required if the owner would like the dog to be walked off the lead.
Panda Pet Services incorporates training into the dog walks for safety and general obedience and reserves the right to use training aids at their discretion.
The owner is to make full disclosure of any quality or characteristic problems which might make the dog not suitable; including behavioural or health problems, antisocial behaviour; including any form of aggression, excessive loud barking or whining. Failure on the part of the owner to disclose any matter which might render the dog unsuitable, will be deemed a material omission amounting to a fundamental breach of our agreement.
We make every effort to contact the owner in the event of an emergency. We recommend owners provide us with a contact number of a trusted third party should we be unable to make contact. However, we reserve the right to make decisions regarding the dog’s health provided it is at all times acting in the best interests of the dog and on the advice of a veterinary surgeon. If veterinary assistance is required, we will take your pet to your nominated vet. The owner is responsible for payment of any veterinary fees incurred.
Please contact us and try to provide 24 hours notice for any cancellations or changes.
