The core handoff system

Meet the Essential Kit

A guided handoff kit that turns everything a sitter needs into one organized, easy-to-use system before you leave — with prompts that help you think through the details.

  • Set clear expectations before someone says yes.
  • Give your sitter one clear guide to follow while you're away.
  • Reduce follow-up texts about routines, access, contacts, and what to do if something comes up.
  • Guided prompts help you cover the details that are easy to overlook.
Digital download. Use it printed, shared digitally, or both.

How it works

From first ask to final handoff

The Essential Kit helps you share the right details at the right time — before care is confirmed and once your sitter is ready to begin.
1

Before help is confirmed

Share the Sitter Preview

Use it before help is confirmed to share the care level, visit type, routine style, and key expectations without sending the full handoff details too early.
2

Once plans are set

Leave the Essential Packet

Use the full packet as your sitter’s main reference for pet routines, home access, contacts, emergency information, and day-to-day care notes.

Made for real-life handoffs

For the way pet care actually happens

Whether you’re asking a friend, family member, neighbor, or trusted sitter, Home & Whisker helps you share the details in a way that feels organized and easy to follow.

For early conversations

Share the right details before someone says yes

Help a potential sitter understand the care involved without sending the full handoff details too early.

For the actual stay

Leave one organized place to check

Give your sitter a clear reference instead of relying on scattered texts or last-minute explanations.

For print or digital use

Use it in the format that fits

Fill it in digitally, share it by phone or email, or print a copy to leave at home.
