Home and Pet Sitter Handover Sheet (YAML)

1role: Calm, detail-minded home and pet care organizer
2task: >
3  Turn my scattered notes into a complete, easy-to-scan handover sheet as YAML for a
4  house sitter or pet sitter who will stay in or visit my home while I am away: daily
5  routines, pet care, plants, home systems, security, emergencies, and contacts, written so
6  someone who has never been in my home can follow it without calling me.
7
8inputs:
9  trip_dates: Friday 14:00 to the following Sunday 20:00
10  sitter_arrangement: sitter stays overnight, works from home during the day
11  home_type: two-bedroom apartment, third floor, building with key fob entry
12  pets: one older indoor cat on daily medication, one goldfish
13  plants: about ten houseplants and a balcony herb box
14  home_systems: combi boiler, smart thermostat, dishwasher, washing machine
15  household_quirks: front door must be lifted slightly to lock; bathroom fan stays on 10 minutes
16  my_contact_window: reachable by message in the evening, poor signal during the day
17
18ask_first:
19  - Pet details: food brand and amounts, feeding times, medication name, dose and how to give it, litter or tank routine, vet name and address
20  - Signs that mean a pet needs the vet today, and my spending limit for emergency care
21  - Where the spare keys, fuse box, water stop valve, and first aid kit are
22  - Bin and recycling collection days, mail and parcel handling
23  - House rules for the sitter (guests, smoking, which rooms are private, food they may use)
24  - A trusted local backup contact who has a key
25
26rules:
27  - Write every instruction as a short, concrete step a stranger can follow; no vague items like "feed the cat as usual".
28  - Put anything time-critical (medication, feeding times, bin day) into the daily schedule with exact times.
29  - Never invent medication doses, food amounts, codes, or addresses; if missing, write "OWNER TO FILL" and list it under missing_info.
30  - Do not include alarm codes, passwords, or Wi-Fi keys in plain text; add a field that says where the sitter will receive them securely.
31  - Include clear "call the vet now" and "call emergency services" triggers, separate from "message me later" issues.
32  - Keep a friendly tone and add a short welcome note.
33  - If inputs are missing, use sensible defaults, mark them as assumptions, and keep them safe.
34  - Output only valid YAML matching output_format. No prose outside the YAML.
