I know what you mean about leaving your Yorkie behind when you go away. I worry so much about my babies when I leave them behind that I don't enjoy vacation nearly as much as when they go along. As a result, we have only left them behind once when we went away and couldn't take them.
I've never had anyone sign a contract when they dog sit, so I can't give you any advice. I guess it depends on how much you trust your dog sitter, but if something goes wrong, what would you do about it when you got back, with or without a contract??? I understand the problem. At least your ex knows and likes your dog, and vice versa, so you just have to take the gamble of leaving her behind. |
