Dog limping on your watch?

You handled it well, telling the owner what you observed and when. Even with the most attentive care possible, sometimes things happen, that are not a reflection of the care given and could have just as likely/easily happened in the pet’s home. All we can do is be transparent with the owner. If it was an extended stay you could have called rover support to start a file in case further vet care was needed. I would not give any pet any medication or supplement without owner approval .

I will often take a video, explain what I observed, chain of events-what I noticed. With the video -I send a link to the iCloud/gmail video the person can access.

On many occasions, my observations helped an owner figure out problems, explain behavior etc. I’ve also advised clients when their house smells different than it usually does- it wasn’t a propane leak, but not a normal smell, doesn’t smell like anything is burning, just something is different. -they had used a different cleaning product or some other thing….were quite impressed with my nose.
