Pet Parent Responsibilities
To comply with our workplace pet policy, pet parents who want to bring their pets to work must agree to:
- Be 100% responsible for their pet’s behaviour, well-being, hygiene and happiness the entire time he or she is visiting.
- Be respectful of other employees, and their pets, to ensure everyone can be as successful and productive as possible at work.
- Leashed in shared spaces.
- Manage their workspace to ensure it is “pet-proofed” and safe for their visiting pet.
- Keep their pet with them and controlled throughout the day. Or, make arrangements with a colleague to do so if they need to step away.
- Ensure that their pet’s behaviour does not interfere with other employees’ comfort or ability to do their work.
- Provide their own pet items to ensure pet safety, such as leashes, crates or gates to keep the pet securely in the employee’s work area.
- Provide their own pet wellness items, such as waste bags, toys, food and water bowls.
- Provide adequate bathroom breaks, access to water and food, and exercise throughout the day.
- Clean up after their pet immediately if any accidents occur.
- Maintain homeowners/renters insurance that covers dog bites.
