Confidence around your pet type
Ask for examples from relevant experience, then confirm the expected standard and routine in your own household.
Helpers by household need
Pet-friendly domestic helpers
Shortlist helpers who are comfortable around your specific animals and understand the household’s feeding, cleaning and safety routines.
Understanding the profile
Match the person—not only the label.
Pet care expectations differ greatly between a small indoor cat, several dogs, birds or animals needing medication. Comfort, allergies and real hands-on experience should be discussed before placement.
Nationality or a care category is a useful starting point, but it should never replace a proper interview, clear job scope and realistic expectations on both sides.
What to assess

Interview prompts
Questions worth asking.
- Which animals have you cared for and what did you do daily?
- How would you respond if a pet stopped eating or behaved unusually?
- Are you comfortable cleaning cages, litter or outdoor areas?
- Do you have allergies or fears involving animals?
Before you decide
Important considerations.
- Introduce the exact pet type, size and temperament during matching.
- Be clear about walking, bathing, cleaning and medication expectations.
- Never assume that liking animals equals safe handling experience.
