While pets are not shown to be transmissible carriers of COVID-19, caution should be maintained when caring for pets if a household member or caretaker is positive for COVID-19, and to limit the spread of disease. Safe practices include:

- Having adequate amounts of pet food, medication, and other supplies in store for weeks

- Keep pets from interacting from humans and other animals from outside the household

- Keeping pets indoors or within enclosed areas

- Maintaining social distancing when taking pets on their walks

- Avoid dog parks or other areas with high traffic

- Have a person that is confirmed negative for COVID-19 take care of the pets
