Do pet sitters need to be licensed?

The pet sitting industry is not regulated and unfortunately, does not have any licensing requirements.  Many individuals tout themselves as pet sitters, but not all are qualified for the demands of the job.
Knowing animal welfare standards, local council laws and limits, knowing basic pet emergency procedures, being professional, diligent, organised and reliable is what will set you apart from the competition.  PetCloud's Academy for Pet Professionals will put you leaps and bounds ahead of other Sitters in your area.
