Care in Kraków, step by step

Plan your pet’s day before changing yours

On departure day, you should not have to search for keys or wonder who will walk the dog. An address, schedule, instructions and a meeting beforehand help make the handover clear.

  1. Choose a service and describe your pet

    Give your exact Kraków address, dates and pet’s needs. Explain whether you need a walk during work, cat visits or an overnight stay. Agree on keys or drop-off times with the sitter.

  2. Check that the sitter is a good match

    Availability, experience and the agreed tasks matter. For boarding, also discuss the home, other household members and where your dog will rest.

  3. Meet and agree the details

    Discuss feeding, walks, handing over the keys and emergency contacts before care begins. For longer stays, meeting first lets you see how your dog responds to the new place.

  4. Leave with a plan for updates

    You receive photos and a message after a walk or visit, plus a GPS route after walks. During longer care, reports help you follow your pet’s routine and wellbeing.

Meet your Kraków sitter before care

Only 1 in 20 candidates becomes an Alvis caregiver.

Verification, training and mentored practice prepare sitters for responsible work. Before care, discuss your pet and the arrangements with the sitter. A nearby address cannot replace a good match.

  • Before booking, check the sitter’s experience and how it matches your dog’s or cat’s needs.

  • Use the introductory meeting to discuss routines, feeding, walks and handing over the keys.

  • The district is only part of the choice: choose someone who can provide the care required and agree clear arrangements with you.

A support plan when care does not go as expected

Care in Kraków starts with a clear plan: contact, instructions and what to do if something changes. The terms explain Alvis Protect coverage and assistance conditions.

Help arranging a replacement

Contact the coordinator if your sitter cannot provide the service. The team helps find a solution that fits the dates, address and your pet’s needs.

Emergency veterinary support

Alvis Protect may cover emergency veterinary intervention up to PLN 1,000 gross per booking, subject to the terms. This applies to specified emergencies during an active care service.

Instructions the team can refer to

Care instructions and an emergency contact help clarify a situation quickly. Record up-to-date information before you leave and report changes to your plans as early as possible.

First time booking care in Kraków?

Start with the questions that matter to you.

«I work long hours. Do I need all-day care?»

If your dog rests well alone, a scheduled walk may be enough. A home visit can cover feeding and fresh water. For longer absences, compare boarding with overnight care in your own home.

«My cat dislikes changes and unfamiliar places»

Cat visits take place in your apartment. Your cat keeps their bowls, litter tray and hiding spots, while the sitter follows your instructions and lets the cat set the pace of contact.

«What will I actually see in the report?»

Photos show your pet, while the message explains how they ate, rested and responded to the sitter. Walk reports also include the GPS route. You receive specific details rather than just “everything is fine”.

«My dog needs a calmer approach»

Describe reactions to other dogs, traffic, stairs or being alone when you make the request. This helps match a sitter and agree on walking routes or boarding arrangements before booking.

Kraków

Pet care near your home in Kraków

Share your Kraków address and dates. We will check suitable sitters for your pet. You can request care in these districts and elsewhere in the city:

In Kraków, include the address and care times, not just the district. For walks in Krowodrza, visits in Podgórze or care in Dębniki, explain how to enter the building. For boarding, say which parts of the city are convenient for dropping off and collecting your dog.

  • Stare Miasto
  • Grzegórzki
  • Prądnik Czerwony
  • Prądnik Biały
  • Krowodrza
  • Bronowice
  • Zwierzyniec
  • Dębniki
  • Podgórze
  • Czyżyny
  • Nowa Huta

Availability is confirmed for your address, dates and pet’s needs. Listing a district does not mean a sitter is available there on every date.

Plan the right care for your dog or cat

Good pet care starts with your pet’s daily routine. An overnight stay is not always necessary: a walk or a visit in familiar surroundings may be the better fit.

A walk, a home visit or boarding?

Choose dog walking when you are at work and your dog needs a trip outside. Describe the length, pace and your dog’s reactions to other animals. For a longer absence, compare boarding with care in your own home, considering your pet’s habits and response to unfamiliar surroundings.

For a cat staying at home, you can request visits for agreed tasks such as feeding, fresh water and litter cleaning. Specify visit frequency and your cat’s needs. A short visit does not mean a sitter will remain at home throughout your absence.

What should your request include?

Prepare the dates, address, number of animals and a brief description of their routine. Include feeding times, walks, reactions to unfamiliar people and situations that need attention. Specific information helps assess whether a particular sitter and type of care are suitable.

Before care starts, agree on key handover or pet drop-off, access to food and equipment, and how to contact you while you are away. Discuss health needs and any extra tasks in advance; do not assume that every sitter can take them on.

What affects the price of pet sitting?

Compare like-for-like services: a single walk, a home visit and overnight care cover different needs. The selected option, duration and additional requirements affect the price. The service pages linked above provide pricing options and supplements.

Before booking, check the price for your order and exactly what it includes. For a longer trip, agree on start and end dates, drop-off times and any extra visits. This makes it easier to compare the actual scope of care.

How do you stay in touch?

After a service, you receive a report and photos; walks can also include the GPS route. Updates help you follow your pet’s care without asking about every task. Let the sitter know which details about your pet matter most to you.

If plans change or a problem arises, contact the Alvis coordinator. The team helps clarify the situation and check replacement options. Send your request once your dates are known: the availability of a particular sitter needs confirmation.
