Woof!

The three of us are planning to take a vacation this summer.

The hardest part is leaving the dogs. Oh I know, they’re just dogs…but we love them and I hate the thought of putting them in a kennel for a week. It breaks my heart for them. I mean, you know they don’t why they’re there, why their people ditched them or that we’re coming back. I hate that! They must be so sad!! Geez, I get all bummed just thinking about it!

Someone suggested that I try a pet sitter?

I’ve seen those ads but always dismissed them. Now I’m really considering it. After some research, I discovered;

they don’t cost any more than boarding them somewhere

they’re insured and bonded

they come 4 times a day for 30 minutes a pop

So…they would be alone a lot but at least they would be in comfortable surroundings.

I wish we knew some reliable teen or college kid that would be willing to just hang out at our house for a week. 

I guess the pet sitter thing seems better than a kennel though. but if we board them, at least people are near by the whole time, in case something happened. I'm sooo conflicted!
