Printable Pet Sitting Checklist
Free printable pet sitting checklist at exact scale — leave clear care instructions for your pet sitter with feeding, walks, medication and emergency contacts, plus a tick box for each day.
Going away is a lot less stressful when your pet sitter knows exactly what to do. This checklist puts everything on one page: your pet's name and your contact details, the vet or emergency number, feeding amounts and times, and a numbered list of care tasks — water, feeding, walks, litter, medication and clean-up — each with a box to tick for every day or visit.
Pick a preset for a dog, cat, small animal or fish/reptile, or type your own tasks. Add day columns so the sitter can tick each visit, and leave the notes box for them to write anything you'll want to know when you're back. Print a fresh copy for each trip, or laminate one and reuse it with a dry-erase marker.
Printing at exact scale
Every sheet is drawn in real millimetres and prints at exact physical scale. For accurate output, set Scale = 100% (Actual size) and Margins = None in your browser's print dialog. Not sure your printer is honest? Run the printer ruler test first to confirm 50 mm really measures 50 mm.
Frequently asked questions
What should I put on a pet sitting checklist?
The essentials: feeding amounts and times, fresh water, exercise or walks, litter or enclosure cleaning, any medication, plus your phone number and your vet's or an emergency contact. This sheet has a field for each so nothing gets missed.
Can I use it for any kind of pet?
Yes — choose the dog, cat, small-animal or fish/reptile preset, or select “Custom” and type your own tasks one per line for anything else.
How do the day columns work?
Set the number of days or visits and the sitter gets a tick box per task per day, so you can see at a glance what's been done each visit. Set it to 0 for a single tick column.
Is it really free?
Yes. Every template on printsheet.io is completely free, with no sign-up, no account and no watermark. Generate as many sheets as you like.
How do I get an exact-scale print?
Choose your paper size, then in the print dialog set Scale to 100% or “Actual size” and Margins to None. The sheet is defined in real millimetres, so it prints at true size. Use the calibration ruler page to verify.
Which paper sizes are supported?
A4, A5, A3, A6, US Letter, Legal and Tabloid, in portrait or landscape. Pick the size that matches the paper loaded in your printer.
Can I save it as a PDF instead of printing?
Yes — choose “Save as PDF” as the printer in your browser's print dialog. The PDF keeps the exact millimetre dimensions.
