I have a lady who is unable to keep her elderly dog with her in her current home, she found me on craigslist when I was searching for a roommate, but instead she asked if she could pay the roommate rent, but I could care for her dog. I agreed since I already do so much with animals. However, if you expect to get your dog back, or be able to frequently visit him, you should pay for his expenses such as food, any medical expenses, extras such as treats, toys, beds, and also a little something for the person caring for your pet. You basically are paying for someone to keep your dog for you, I call it permanent boarding, or long term boarding. He's been with us a year now, the lady even has a copy of the house key so she can come by any time she wants. Just put up an ad on craigslist or a similar site, or even message someone on rover if they would consider something like that. Of course you wouldn't be paying their regular rate, that would cost way too much. You may find someone who is willing to do it for free or cheap, which would be cool, but remember, its a stranger taking care of your dog which you love and probably want back soon, so just make sure its someone you can trust. I hope this reply doesn't sound bad... I just wouldn't want to care for someone else's pet for free. Good luck.
Hi Jennifer! I foster for a local rescue here in OKC and I would suggest that you contact local rescues to see if one of their foster parents can foster your Chevy or they may know how to find a good foster. Try to avoid Craigslist and make sure you make out a "contract" with the foster.
Is there any connection to the cincinnati area?
