Is it fair to charge a cleaning fee if the owner did not notify me of their dogs incontinence?
The owner never shared that her dog had incontinence issues.
I do not limit puppies or seniors, but I ask that owners of puppies, that are not yet potty trained, and older senior, who have accidents, to bring their own puppy pads and bed.
This helps reduce the amount of cleaning necessary during their stay.
Except the owner never even mentioned it, and now my bedroom rug has urine stains and my whole bedroom smells of dog urine.
We have taken her out multiple times throughout the night, and it did not seem to help.
The rug will cost a few hundred dollars to have cleaned, and the visit won't even bring in a hundred dollars.
What would you say to the owner and how much would you charge for such damage due to the owner's lack of respect and honesty.
Did they have "house-trained" ticked off on their dogs profile? Being potty trained is one thing but incontinence is a level below that. It would be a big lie to tick that off in the first place. I would ask for compensation.
