asked a question Dog over lap?

Hi.

I'm having a hard time with the dogs overlapping each other for stays.

For example: If I get a booking Monday to Friday with a dog that isn't good with other dogs - then I get a second request for another booking Thursday to Wednesday, so the two dogs would be together for the Thursday and Friday until one got picked up.

I hate having to turn down an entire week of boarding with the second dog because of the first booking.

Maybe I'm too kind, but what are other people doing? Are you just popping a dog in a bedroom until the other dog is picked up? Do you tell the owners their dog may have to be in a bedroom for a night?

None of the dogs I board ever get along with each other - it's really frustrating! They all get along with my dog - just not other people's.

answered a question Should I charge more to sit dogs that are not good with other dogs?

I'm having that problem too! I've reduced the number of dogs I take down to 2 and actually prefer to only do 1 client at a time because I'm having a hard time with matching outside dogs together. It's quite stressful. I think if the owners knew they could be honest and say - my dog isn't good with other dogs - I'd like to pay extra for you to sit him/her it might make things easier?
