Pet Hospital In-Home Feeding Agreement

Introduction to Services

Our pet hospital is committed to providing exceptional care for your beloved companions. Recognizing that pets may require feeding assistance during times of illness or when their owners are unavailable, we offer an in-home feeding service. This agreement outlines the terms and conditions of this service, ensuring that both parties understand their responsibilities and the scope of the care provided.

Scope of Service

Our in-home feeding service includes the delivery of meals tailored to your pet's dietary needs, administration of any prescribed medications, and monitoring of your pet's overall health during feeding times. Our trained staff will ensure that your pet receives the appropriate amount of food and water, maintaining a consistent feeding schedule as per your instructions.

Scheduling and Availability

We understand the importance of timely feedings and strive to accommodate your pet's schedule. Our service is available seven days a week, with specific feeding times to be determined based on your pet's needs and our staff availability. We require a minimum of 24-hour notice for scheduling feeding appointments and request that you provide us with at least two contact numbers to ensure reliable communication.

Nutritional Requirements and Special Instructions

You will be responsible for providing detailed information regarding your pet's dietary requirements, including any special instructions for feeding. This includes, but is not limited to, the type of food, portion sizes, feeding frequency, and any necessary dietary supplements. Our staff will follow these instructions meticulously to ensure your pet's nutritional needs are met.

Medication Administration

If your pet requires medication during feeding times, you must provide clear instructions and the medication itself. Our staff is trained to administer medications as prescribed by a veterinarian. It is your responsibility to inform us of any changes to your pet's medication regimen.

Monitoring and Reporting

Our staff will monitor your pet's condition during each feeding session, looking for any signs of distress or changes in health. We will keep a detailed log of feedings and any observations, which will be made available to you upon request. Should any concerns arise, we will contact you immediately to discuss appropriate actions.

Payment and Cancellation Policy

Payment for the in-home feeding service is due at the time of scheduling. We accept various forms of payment and require a minimum of 24-hour notice for cancellations. Failure to provide sufficient notice may result in a cancellation fee.

Liability and Indemnification

While we take every precaution to ensure the safety and well-being of your pet, you acknowledge that there are inherent risks associated with in-home feeding services. You agree to hold our pet hospital harmless for any injury or illness that may occur during the service. You also agree to indemnify us against any claims or damages arising from the provision of this service.

Confidentiality

We respect your privacy and will maintain the confidentiality of any personal information provided to us. Our staff is bound by confidentiality agreements and will not disclose any information to third parties without your consent.

Termination of Agreement

This agreement may be terminated by either party at any time with written notice. In the event of termination, any outstanding fees for services rendered will be due immediately.

- Keep emergency contact information readily available, including your veterinarian's phone number.

- Ensure your pet is comfortable with our staff by introducing them prior to the start of the service.
