Just wanted to share with you guys, a good guinea pig version of a pet-sitter checklist.

Daily loving care:
-Check the hay rack, and fill it with high-quality hay
-Check the water bottles and fill them with fresh cool water
-Remove old veggies from the previous day
-Fill their bowls with 1-2 table spoons of pellets for each pig
-Feed them one cup/50g of fresh veggies and fruits
-Cuddle them and give them a good ear scratch (Optional, but recommended)
-Spot clean the cage
-Brush and comb long-haired piggies

"Wheekly" jobs:
-Wash and scrub their bowls and water bottles
-Do a thorough clean of the cage and place down fresh bedding
-Check their weight, for health reasons
-Check the safety of their toys/snugs/cage

Keeping them healthy:
-Brush their coats to keep them glossy and tangle free
-Check the guinea pig's activity
-Clip their nails
-Check their teeth
-Check their poos
-Look for any discharge from their eyes and nose
-Give them a little obstacle course to keep them fit an healthy

Additional information:
-Where is the food stored?
-What is their veterinarian's name?
-Your telephone number
-The vet's telephone number
-What are the pigs not allowed to do?
-What do they dislike?

Okay, that's it. Uhm, of course if you want, you can change these around, and alter information. And yeah, hope you like :D

Great list although I'm not that strict with my sitters. I usually bed them on a more traditional bedding and let them go a week without cleaning :cen:

i dont think they are any the worse for it as a one off! They still fet veggiez and food so they are not bothered!
