Pet Care Instructions & Feeding Routine Form

A pet care instructions template — feeding, medication and daily routine set out precisely, so your pet’s care is exactly right while you’re away.

Description

Pets thrive on routine, and a sitter who follows yours to the letter keeps them calm and content. This form captures the detail that makes that possible: what and how much to feed and when, any medication, the walks and the quirks — so nothing is left to guesswork while you’re away. It gets specific where it counts: feeding amounts and times, medication doses and timing, where things are kept, likes and dislikes, house rules (on the sofa or not, which rooms), and the little comforts that settle your pet. The more precise it is, the more your pet’s days feel normal. Fill it in once and keep it on file for every booking. Free, brandable, and it means your sitter cares for your pet exactly as you would — not a close approximation.

Template FAQs

Common questions about the Pet Care Instructions & Feeding Routine Form — what it captures, when to use it, and how to make it your own.

What should pet care instructions include?

Feeding amounts and times, any medication and how to give it, the daily routine and walks, where food and supplies are kept, likes and dislikes, house rules, and the little things that keep your pet settled.

Why be so precise about feeding?

Because over- or under-feeding, the wrong food, or meals at odd times can upset a pet’s stomach and routine. Exact amounts and timings mean your pet eats exactly as it does with you.

How do you handle medication?

The form records each medication, the dose, the timing and how it’s given, so there’s no ambiguity. For anything complex, your sitter will confirm it with you before you leave.

What are house rules for?

So your sitter keeps your pet to the same boundaries you do — allowed on the sofa or not, which rooms, crate at night. Consistency keeps a pet relaxed and avoids confusion.

Can I keep these instructions for future bookings?

Yes — once completed, they’re saved and easy to reuse or update, so you don’t start from scratch each time you go away.

Is the instructions form free?

Yes — free with a Fun Forms account, fully customisable, and ready to share as a link or embed on your site.
