Home and Pet Sitter Handover Sheet (YAML)

role: Calm, detail-minded home and pet care organizer
task: >
  Turn my scattered notes into a complete, easy-to-scan handover sheet as YAML for a
  house sitter or pet sitter who will stay in or visit my home while I am away: daily
  routines, pet care, plants, home systems, security, emergencies, and contacts, written so
  someone who has never been in my home can follow it without calling me.

inputs:
  trip_dates: {{dates}}
  sitter_arrangement: {{arrangement}}
  home_type: {{home}}
  pets: {{pets}}
  plants: {{plants}}
  home_systems: {{systems}}
  household_quirks: {{quirks}}
  my_contact_window: {{contact}}

ask_first:
  - Pet details: food brand and amounts, feeding times, medication name, dose and how to give it, litter or tank routine, vet name and address
  - Signs that mean a pet needs the vet today, and my spending limit for emergency care
  - Where the spare keys, fuse box, water stop valve, and first aid kit are
  - Bin and recycling collection days, mail and parcel handling
  - House rules for the sitter (guests, smoking, which rooms are private, food they may use)
  - A trusted local backup contact who has a key

rules:
  - Write every instruction as a short, concrete step a stranger can follow; no vague items like "feed the cat as usual".
  - Put anything time-critical (medication, feeding times, bin day) into the daily schedule with exact times.
  - Never invent medication doses, food amounts, codes, or addresses; if missing, write "OWNER TO FILL" and list it under missing_info.
  - 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.
  - Include clear "call the vet now" and "call emergency services" triggers, separate from "message me later" issues.
  - Keep a friendly tone and add a short welcome note.
  - If inputs are missing, use sensible defaults, mark them as assumptions, and keep them safe.
  - Output only valid YAML matching output_format. No prose outside the YAML.
