I am gonna need a yorkiesitter!

[Judy in Waco]

Hey! Just now saw this. Where have I been?? We would LOVE to have Tina and T-bone visit us over Christmas. We're not going anywhere, Gizmo is fixed, gets along well with your babies, AND I will be home during that time since I'm a teacher. So, two adults home full time. Seems ideal and it would be a great way to give Gizmo some more socialization time with other yorkies.

Sending you a pm now. I hope you are planning to come through Waco though, because it will be tough for us to get to you around that time.

Yay Judy how nice of you to do that....I would definitely open my home to any YTer that needed furbaby sitting if we were around at the time needed. Izzy too would love the company.

I think it will be a hoot! Lauren will get back to me sometime this weekend when she confirms her travel plans. We're really hoping this all works out. Gizmo will LOVE it.

Yorkiesitter found! Judy, you don't know what you're getting into! I am telling you, I'd LOVE a house full of yorkies for Christmas! And you know what's even better? I know you will take tons of pictures to share! And you know how much YT loves pictures!

At my parents's house, dogs have to stay outside. Two yorkies, outside, in December, in KS, for 4 days... yeah right. So we need to leave them here. But my dogs HATE to be boarded, because they don't like to be around big dogs. Well, it isn't all big dogs, but a whole group of them really upsets my pups. I know that many kennels keep them separate, but our dogs act like they have been abandoned when they come home from the kennel. I'd much rather they stay in someone's home. But, I don't know anyone in the area, literally, I know my brother, that's about it (and of course he will be going to KS then as well). I did find a middle school aged girl in a town nearby that will watch dogs in her own home, so that is my option right now, but I just thought I'd see if any YT members were interested in watching Tina and Tbone instead. I would totally love to watch other people's yorkies ANY TIME, so that's why I thought I'd ask. Tbone is potty pad trained, and is very good about it. Tina will go outside, but I keep her in diapers when on the carpet just in case. So anyway, just putting the offer out there. Anyone want some extra holiday guests, starting Christmas Eve or Christmas day? We aren't leaving for KS until Christmas day, and will most likely be back on the 28th or 29th. No pressure, I've got somewhere to take them if no one else can, just testing the waters! Thanks all!

I AM in the Hill Country! I live just north of Austin. Judy in Waco is going to watch them for me, but you should join us for some of our meetups! I have met a few YT'ers in the area and we have such a great time getting our dogs together!

The last meetup in Austin was a blast, and we would love to have you join us. We have lots of fun!

Can't wait to see Tbone, Tina, and Lauren later today.

I hope you can find the sitter you need.

I live in Austin, and I've used Home Away from Home for a couple of years. The owner is Meg, and she does day/boarding care in her home. You can reach her at http://www.hafh.biz/contact.html. Reasonable rates, plus it's ONLY for small breeds (under 20 pounds). She and her husband have a big yard and the dogs play all day and have full run of the house - they only get crated to eat. I left her a review on Dogster as well: http://www.dogster.com/local/reviews.php

Good luck!

Wow that is really cool! Maybe we will use that for other trips we make, so Judy isn't so overloaded with my pups. I know they can be a handful I just want someone to give them the attention that we do, instead of just putting them in a pin all day.
