Pets! When your Notary Visits

Hey there, fellow pet lovers! As a notary, I’ve had my fair share of interesting encounters with furry friends while on the job. And while I am an animal lover, it can make things a little more challenging when it comes to getting important documents signed.

Here are my top tips for managing your pets when you have a notary coming to your home:

  1. Whether it’s a favorite toy or a treat, make sure your pets have something to keep them busy while the notary is working. This will help prevent them from potentially interrupting the signing process.
  2. If your pet is particularly energetic, consider putting them in another room while documents are being signed. This will not only make things easier for the notary, but also ensure that your pet is safe and secure.
  3. Use a leash or carrier if the pet will be too stressed out being put in another room. They may be more comfortable if they are kept securely in a place near you.
  4. If you have a particularly feisty or protective pet, it’s always a good idea to let the notary know in advance. This will allow them to prepare accordingly and ensure that everyone stays safe and happy.
  5. If your pet is having a particularly difficult day or is too anxious around strangers, consider having someone else take care of your pet during the signing. This way, the pet can be kept safe and happy while the signing is taking place, and you won’t have to worry about any distractions.

Remember, while pets can certainly add a little extra excitement to the notary process, it’s important to prioritize safety and efficiency. Follow these tips and your signing is sure to be a success – for both you and your furry friend!

Once the documents are signed, I am happy to give your furry friend some scratches and maybe even a little treat!
