The prompt · ChatGPT

Help me write clear notes for our pet-sitter or house-sitter.

Pets: [names, food and amounts, walks, medicines as the vet told us]
Vet: [practice name and number]
House: [keys, alarm (I'll share the code separately), bins day, stopcock, fuse box, heating]
Emergency contacts: [names and numbers]
Dates away: [from and to]

Ask me up to 3 short questions first if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. An emergency section at the top: vet, our numbers, a local contact, and 999 for emergencies.
2. A pets section with feeding, walks and medicines exactly as I've written them.
3. A house section: bins, heating, post, plants.
4. A daily tick-box list, one line per job, ready to turn into checkboxes.
5. Anything important I haven't covered, as questions.

Leave out alarm codes and door codes; I'll share those another way. Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent facts. UK English.

Stay in this ChatGPT chat. Do not turn on apps or connectors, and do not use memory from another chat.

A short example

Fill the blanks, then paste. names, food and amounts, walks, medicines as the vet told us: a short note you already have. practice name and number: a short note you already have. Leave the rest of the prompt as written.

2

The assistant asks about the things people usually forget: vet, emergencies, bins, alarms.

You get one tidy note with sections, a daily tick-box list and an emergency section at the top.
