Ever wondered what really happens during a professional dog sitting session? At TEEF Pet Services, we know that leaving your dog at home can be stressful. That’s why we believe in complete transparency. In this post, we’ll take you behind the scenes of a dog sitting session in Dubai so you know exactly how we keep your pup safe, happy, and cared for.
The Meet & Greet: Building Trust First
Every great dog sitting experience begins with a meet and greet. This session allows us to understand your dog’s unique personality, preferences, and daily routine.
During this step, we learn about:
- Feeding and medication schedules
- Favorite toys and playtime activities
- Any special needs or health concerns
This introduction ensures your dog feels comfortable and familiar with us from the very first visit.
Step 1: Arrival & Warm Welcome
Once the booking starts, we arrive at your home and greet your dog with calm, positive energy. Dogs are creatures of routine, and many already recognize us from the meet and greet—meaning tails start wagging as soon as we step through the door.
What happens next:
- A calm, friendly greeting
- Fresh water check
- Quick safety scan of the home (doors, windows, and environment)
Step 2: Playtime & Walks
Dogs need both physical exercise and mental stimulation. Depending on your booking, a session can include:
- 30-minute visits → Focused on quick walks and a burst of play.
- 60 to 120-minute visits → A balance of walks, fetch, tug-of-war, puzzle toys, and extra cuddle time.

Step 3: Feeding & Hydration
If mealtime falls during our visit, we carefully follow your instructions—whether your dog eats kibble, fresh food, or a specialised diet.
We always ensure:
- Water bowls are refilled with fresh water
- Feeding amounts are precise and consistent
- Treats are given only as instructed
Step 4: Comfort & Companionship
Dog sitting isn’t just about food and walks—it’s about companionship. Many dogs simply want cuddles, belly rubs, or a quiet presence nearby.
We pay close attention to:
- Body language (playful, relaxed, or anxious)
- Comfort during hot Dubai days—making sure they’re cool and hydrated
- Reducing separation anxiety through calm interaction

Step 5: Updates for Pet Parents
Before leaving, we tidy up toys, refresh water bowls, and send you real-time updates with photos and notes. You’ll know:
- How your dog behaved
- What activities they enjoyed
- Any important observations about mood or health
This way, you never feel disconnected while away.
Why Behind the Scenes Matters
A dog sitting session is more than just supervision—it’s peace of mind for you and a happy day for your dog. Every visit is personalised to your pet’s needs, ensuring they feel loved and secure even when you’re not home.

People Also Ask
What’s the difference between dog sitting and dog boarding?

How do I prepare my home for a sitter?
- Leave clear instructions for food, medications, and routines.
- Make sure leashes, collars, and favorite toys are easy to find.
- Provide emergency contacts, including your vet’s details.
