Free pet sitter handbook builder

Going away? Pack your pet's whole routine into one beautiful handbook.

Feeding times, medications, quirks, vet numbers, the never-feed list — SmawPaw turns it all into a print-ready handbook your pet sitter will actually read. Free, in about five minutes.

No account. No uploads — your pet's info never leaves your browser.

Sitter-proof in three steps

You know everything about your pet. Your sitter knows nothing. SmawPaw closes that gap before you reach the airport.

Fill in the friendly form

Feeding, meds, walks, quirks, vet, emergency contacts — with placeholder examples so you never stare at a blank box.

Watch it design itself

A live preview builds the handbook as you type: cover page with photo, emergency quick-reference, tidy medication tables.

Print it or save the PDF

One click, ready for A4 or US Letter. Stick it on the fridge, text the PDF, and leave town with a clear head.

What's inside

More than a pet sitter instructions template

Static printables and Canva templates make you do the layout. SmawPaw designs the pages around whatever you fill in.

🚨

Emergency quick-reference

Your number, a local backup, the vet, the 24/7 ER and poison control — big and bold on one page a panicked sitter can find instantly.

💊

Medication tables

Every med with dose, timing and how to hide it in the cheese — laid out as a table nobody can misread.

✂️

Wallet card cut-out

A credit-card-sized card with your pet's photo, your number and the vet's — for the sitter's wallet on walks.

🔒

Private by design

Everything stays in your browser. No account, no cloud, no database of pets — export a backup file whenever you like.

🐈

Any pet, any routine

Dog sitter checklist, cat sitter notes, bird, rabbit or gecko care sheet — sections adapt to what you fill in and skip what you don't.

🖨️

Actually beautiful in print

Designed for paper first: clean type, clear sections, page breaks where they belong. Fridge-worthy.

Questions, answered

Is the pet sitter handbook really free?

Yes. The full handbook — feeding, medications, routine, vet details, emergency contacts, wallet card — is free with no account and no watermarks. Premium ($7, one-time) adds multi-pet handbooks, extra themes and bonus print pages like sitter report cards.

Where is my pet's information stored?

Only in your own browser. SmawPaw runs entirely on your device: nothing you type is uploaded, and there's no database of pets anywhere. Clearing your browser data clears your handbook, so use Export backup if you want a copy.

How do I get a PDF?

Click Print / Save PDF, then choose “Save as PDF” as the destination in your browser's print dialog. The layout is tuned for both A4 and US Letter.

Is this just a pet sitter instructions template?

It replaces one. A printable pet sitter instructions template makes you fight a PDF or a Canva file; here you answer friendly questions and the pages design themselves — including things templates skip, like a quick-reference emergency page and a wallet card.

Does it work for cats and other pets?

Yes — dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, reptiles, fish, hamsters, you name it. The handbook only prints the sections you fill in, so a cat sitter's notes can be all litter and hiding spots, no walk schedule in sight.

What happens to Premium if I switch devices?

Your license key (from your receipt email) unlocks Premium on any device — paste it into the unlock box in the builder. Your handbook data moves via the backup file.

Your sitter is about to know everything.

Five minutes now saves twelve “quick question!” texts later.
