In the event that any of my pets or large animals appears to be ill, injured, or at significant risk of experiencing a medical problem at the start of service or while in the care of Doggy’s Big Day, I give permission to Doggy’s Big Day to seek veterinary service from a veterinarian or a veterinary clinic. My preferred veterinary services are listed above.  Other veterinarians or emergency care clinics chosen by the pet sitter are acceptable.  

 

I understand that efforts will be made to contact me regarding any treatments, illness, injury, or potential problems as soon as the condition is deemed not life threatening and/or contact is possible.   I understand that Doggy’s Big Day care providers work hard to prevent accidents and injuries, and that such problems may occur no matter how well a pet is cared for.  I agree to allow Doggy’s Big Day care providers to use their best judgment in handling these situations, and I understand that Doggy’s Big Day and its staff assume no responsibility for the actions and decisions of the veterinary staff, the health, or death of my pet(s). If an injury or accident occurs while Doggy's Big Day is caring for my pet, I understand that Doggy's Big Day does carry insurance that may or may not cover the costs of the accident or injury and will be determined by the insurance provider. 

 

If Doggy's Big Day insurance does not cover the accident or injury, I will assume full responsibility for the payment and/or reimbursement for any and all veterinary services rendered, including but not limited to diagnosis, treatment, grooming, medical supplies, and boarding.  Such payments will be made within 14 days of the initial incident.  I also agree to be responsible for all Special Service fees assessed by Doggy’s Big Day for emergency transportation, care, supervision, or hiring of emergency caregivers, and will pay such fees within 14 days of each incident.

 

I further authorize Doggy’s Big Day and my primary veterinarian(s) to share all of the medical records of all of my animals with veterinary clinics in an emergency in the interest of providing the best care for my ill or injured animal(s).

Every dog, cat, and horse at the site of service will be current (per my veterinarians recommendations) on its rabies vaccinations prior to the arrival of any caregiver.  I will also make arrangements to guarantee that each animal will remain current on its rabies vaccinations throughout each service visit period.

 

I agree to notify Doggy’s Big Day of any signs of injury or possible illness before any visit as soon as the condition appears.  Doggy’s Big Day reserves the right to cancel service at any location where a pet with a potentially infectious condition exists.  Doggy’s Big Day strives to provide clean, safe service to each of our clients.  In doing so, Doggy’s Big Day strongly recommends that each pet and large animal be vaccinated, dewormed, and protected from harmful insects according to veterinarian recommended standards.

 

This agreement is valid from the date this form was submitted and grants permission for future veterinary care without the need for additional authorization each time Doggy’s Big Day cares for one or more of my pets.  I understand that this agreement applies to all of the pets and large animals within Doggy’s Big Day care.  In signing this contract, I agree that I have the sole authority to make health, medical, and financial decisions regarding the animals that will be scheduled to receive service.
