Can a Dog Sitter Be Liable for Dog Bites?

Can a Dog Sitter Be Held Liable for a Dog Attack?

In many circumstances, a dog sitter might be held liable for an animal attack. This is especially true if the owner warns them of potential dangers and prompts them on how to disclose this information to others, but they fail to provide adequate warning. Dog sitters may also be liable if they drive or encourage violent behavior from the animal they care for. 

Those who prompt a dog to act violently or approach after an appropriate warning of dangers may not be able to prove the liability of another party within their claims. If you are unsure about who is liable, we encourage you to contact Hollis Law Firm for a case evaluation. 

Who Else Might Be Liable for a Dog Bite Injury?

Depending on the circumstances, many individuals could be liable for a dog bite injury. Most often, the owner or caretaker will be responsible, but there may be cases where others should be held accountable. Before taking legal action, we encourage you to consider all potentially involved parties, including the following: 

• Another pedestrian 
• An irresponsible driver 
• A different dog owner 
• Employer or employee of the premises 
• Owner or renter of the property 
• State or city government 
• Manufacturers of faulty parts, equipment, or vehicles 

There may be instances where more than one party is responsible for your injuries and losses, so we strongly encourage you to contact Hollis Law Firm for aid. We can assist you by analyzing all potential options, narrowing the list of parties, holding individuals accountable for their actions, and much more.
