I ususally take my 2, if not, I leave them with family. However, I have also used a pet sitting service several times before. We have a dog door and had the pet sitter come over to play and check on them a couple of times a day. She was great!!!! She left notes on how they interacted with her, what games they played, how much they ate. She also picked up the mail, put trash out, and rotated turning the lights on and off.
I was a bad mommy and NEVER have crated my two boys, so they FREAK OUT when they are in a crate (at the vet, groomers....) I just know they wouldn't do well in a kennel. Not the Kennel's fault, it's mine. So I couldn't put them in one AND leave for days on end... a pet sitting service has been the best option for us!!! |
