I only do kitty sitting. Can I be sued by a client if their cat becomes ill, injured or dies while I am kitty sitting? I live in the state of Florida.

I was pet sitting this weekend and the cat may have eaten the dog's medication that I briefly left on the counter. It is also possible that the dog ate it. It was 75mg Carprofen. The owner said to not take the cat to the vet, so I gave her 3% hydrogen peroxide to induce vomiting. When the cat did not vomit, I took her to the vet. The cat was forced to vomit and had elevated kidney levels. Now the owner wants me to pay ongoing medical bills for a 16-year-old cat. I feel horrible for the cat, but future medical bills can run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Am I liable for all bills? They could admit the cat to the vet for months at $2,000 a night. What do I do?

I have lost my dog due to the negligence of a dog groomer. Groomer stated my dog collapsed while being dried. The incident based on court records occurred at 11:30am. I was not notified until 12:30pm and demanded that the groomer take my dog to a vet 3 minutes away from her store. When I arrived to inquire about what happened I saw that the groomer did not take my pet anywhere. I picked him up off the floor and raced to the nearby vet…the Vet detected a pulse and tried to save him…but she couldn’t. My question is, does the Groomer owe me a duty of care for my pet? I don’t know if it makes a difference, but she is an LLC. Thank you.

What should I do? I live in a rented townhome. The fence is very dilapidated and allows my dog to get out. Property management is aware and hasn't fixed the problem so my dog can get next door. I've gotten to know my neighbor and when my dog would get through the fence, she would allow him into her home with her 4 other dogs. At least one of Wernick has attacked her friend's dog. I did not know that that had happened. Not until my dog was attacked in her home while I was at work. I received a text that my dog was in a fight with her dog and to come home. I saw the text an hour later and came home immediately. He was seriously injured, and we both went to the vet with him. After learning I couldn't afford surgery, she covered that bill after I paid 430 dollars. When he was released, she offered her vet for after care. He needed another surgery and ultimately died. She's not paying for it, and I can't get his ashes till it's paid. Her friend told me about the previous attack after the event. How do I get help to pay for treatment? Also how do I get the proper attention to her vicious dogs?

Hello, Can someone cat sitting be sued by the owner if they cannot locate the pet/if the cat wanders outside by mistake? In this situation, the owner has not chipped the cat nor has him wear a collar. And if so, about how much money could it be for if this cat sitting is free for a few days time? Thank you.
