You might be excited about your plans, but your pet doesn\u2019t understand why you\u2019ve suddenly disappeared and that can lead to stress, anxiety, or changes in their behaviour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news is, there are simple, caring steps you can take to help your pet stay calm, relaxed, and happy while you\u2019re away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-keep-their-routine-as-normal-as-possible-0\">1. Keep Their Routine as Normal as Possible<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Pets thrive on routine. They feel most secure when life follows a predictable rhythm \u2014 same feeding times, walks, and play sessions. When that changes suddenly, it can make them anxious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re going away, make sure whoever is caring for your pet knows their exact schedule. At <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/comfypaws.com.au\/index.php\/2025\/10\/09\/importance-of-fresh-food-and-clean-water-for-pets\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"19\">Comfy Paws<\/a><\/strong>, we always ask about mealtimes, favourite walking routes, and even bedtime rituals to make sure everything feels familiar for your pet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-choose-in-home-pet-care-over-boarding\">2. Choose In-Home Pet Care Over Boarding<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the biggest causes of stress for pets is being moved to a new environment. The smells, sounds, and other animals in boarding kennels can be overwhelming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s why <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/comfypaws.com.au\/index.php\/2025\/10\/07\/importance-of-walking-your-dog-every-day\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"25\">in-home pet care<\/a><\/strong> is often the best option. Your pet stays right where they\u2019re most comfortable at home surrounded by familiar scents, toys, and sleeping spots. This helps reduce <a href=\"https:\/\/comfypaws.com.au\/index.php\/2025\/10\/05\/i-have-to-go-away-but-i-have-a-pet\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"38\">separation anxiety<\/a> and keeps their stress levels low.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-leave-comfort-items-around-the-house\">3. Leave Comfort Items Around the House<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A little familiarity goes a long way. Before you leave, make sure your pet\u2019s favourite blanket, bed, and toys are accessible. Some owners even leave an unwashed shirt or jumper that smells like them  it can provide a surprising amount of comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For dogs, background noise such as soft music or a TV can also help them relax and feel less alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-give-them-plenty-of-exercise-before-you-leave\">4. Give Them Plenty of Exercise Before You Leave<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A tired <a href=\"https:\/\/comfypaws.com.au\/index.php\/2025\/09\/20\/why-services-like-comfy-paws-are-so-important\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"66\">pet is a calm<\/a> pet. Try to give them an extra walk, play session, or cuddle before you go. Burning off energy helps reduce restlessness and can make the first day of your absence easier for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your pet sitter can also help maintain this by continuing their regular walks or playtime while you\u2019re away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-stay-in-touch-with-your-pet-sitter\">5. Stay in Touch with Your Pet Sitter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Communication helps both you and your pet feel at ease. When you use <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/comfypaws.com.au\/index.php\/2025\/09\/28\/why-pets-are-happier-staying-at-home\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"54\">Comfy Paws<\/a><\/strong>, you\u2019ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages about how your pet is doing. Knowing they\u2019re eating, playing, and resting as usual will make it easier for you to relax too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-don-t-make-a-big-scene-when-you-leave\">6. Don\u2019t Make a Big Scene When You Leave<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s natural to want to say a long goodbye, but dramatic departures can make pets more anxious. Try to keep your goodbye calm and casual  just like you would if you were popping out for errands. This helps them learn that you\u2019ll always come back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-reward-calm-behaviour-when-you-return\">7. Reward Calm Behaviour When You Return<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When you come <a href=\"https:\/\/comfypaws.com.au\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"68\">home<\/a>, your pet may be excited, but try not to overwhelm them with too much energy. Greet them warmly but calmly, and give them a treat or a favourite toy once they\u2019ve settled. This reinforces the idea that calm behaviour leads to good things  and that you returning is nothing to worry about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-calm-pet-means-a-happy-pet\">A Calm Pet Means a Happy Pet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/comfypaws.com.au\/index.php\/2025\/10\/02\/book-pet-sitting-around-your-pets-needs\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"43\">Separation anxiety<\/a> can be tough, but with a bit of planning and the right care, your pet can stay happy, confident, and relaxed while you\u2019re away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re planning a trip soon, consider <a href=\"https:\/\/comfypaws.com.au\/index.php\/2025\/10\/10\/photos-and-videos-of-my-pet-when-im-away\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"3\">Comfy Paws for professional in-home pet sitting<\/a> across Brisbane.
