What to do when dog gets aggressive after pet sitting starts?
Hi everyone, I just started a house-sitting gig for three dogs. I've met the family twice and got along well with the dogs. I showed up today and the biggest dog started showing signs of aggression. He started barking with tail slowly wagging while very close to me and staring at my eyes, and his whole body was alert and seemed ready to spring. His ears were back as well. I didn't feel particularly safe around the dog as I think he saw me as an intruder.
I am not sure what to do. The family just left this morning and are hours away by flight. Has anyone experienced this kind of situation before?
Update? You OK?
