]]>Start by going on walks or running errands without your pet. Mix things up and vary your pattern so your pet doesn’t pick up on departure cues like the sound of keys or putting shoes on, and get anxiety from you leaving. Try not to get them all hyped up when you leave or come back.
Have a crate available for your dog so when they get anxious, they have a space they can go to. For cats, they like quiet, dark spaces, that are remote from the busy areas of the home. Cats like areas that they can have all for themselves.
Keep your pets occupied when you’re away with feeding puzzles, special treats, and toys.
If your pet is showing anxiety by barking, engaging in destructive behavior, urinating, or over-grooming, don’t punish them. Instead speak to your vet for recommendations.
