 Cozy Comforts Pets & More – Veterinary Release Agreement                      
 

In the event that any of my pets or large animals appears to be ill, injured, or at significant risk of experiencing a medical problem at the start of service or while in the care of Cozy Comforts, I give permission to Cozy Comforts to seek veterinary service from a veterinarian or a veterinary clinic. My preferred veterinary services are listed on each individual Pet Information Disclosure. Other veterinarians or emergency care clinics chosen by the pet sitter are acceptable.  

I ask Cozy Comforts to inform the attending clinic or veterinarian of my requested total diagnosis and treatment limit of $_____________  per pet / all pets (most common values are $200, $1000, or unlimited). I understand that efforts will be made to contact me regarding any treatments, illness, injury, or potential problems as soon as the condition is deemed not life threatening and/or contact is possible. I understand that Cozy Comforts care providers work hard to prevent accidents and injuries, and that such problems may occur no matter how well a pet is cared for. I agree to allow Cozy Comforts care providers to use their best judgment in handling these situations, and I understand that Cozy Comforts and its staff assume no responsibility for the actions and decisions of the veterinary staff, the health, or death of my pet(s).

I will assume full responsibility for the payment and/or reimbursement for any and all veterinary services rendered, including but not limited to diagnosis, treatment, grooming, medical supplies, and boarding.  Such payments will be made within 7 days of the initial incident. I also agree to be responsible for all Special Service fees assessed by Cozy Comforts for emergency transportation, care, supervision, or hiring of emergency caregivers, and will pay such fees within 7 days of each incident.

I further authorize Cozy Comforts and my primary veterinarian(s) to share all of the medical records of all of my animals with veterinary clinics in an emergency in the interest of providing the best care for my ill or injured animal(s).

Every dog, cat,  horse, or pet at the site of service will be current (per my veterinarians recommendations) on its rabies vaccinations prior to the arrival of any caregiver. I will also make arrangements to guarantee that each animal will remain current on its rabies vaccinations throughout each service visit period.

I agree to notify Cozy Comforts of any signs of injury or possible illness before any visit as soon as the condition appears.  Cozy Comforts reserves the right to cancel service at any location where a pet with a potentially infectious condition exists. Cozy Comforts strives to provide clean, safe service to each of our clients.  In doing so, Cozy Comforts strongly recommends that each pet and large animal be vaccinated, de-wormed, and protected from harmful insects according to veterinarian recommended standards.

This agreement is valid from the date below and grants permission for future veterinary care without the need for additional authorization each time Cozy Comforts cares for one or more of my pets.  I understand that this agreement applies to all of the pets and large animals within Cozy Comforts care.  In signing this contract, I agree that I have the sole authority to make health, medical, and financial decisions regarding the animals that will be scheduled to receive service.
