answered a question | I can't tell. Aggressive playing or attacks? I would agree with Shannon and I have experienced the same breeds together before, although different situation. I would definitely bring it up nicely with the owners. I would emphasize that this dog needs training, and if you're not qualified maybe mention local dog training classes you heard about, biting is not good (so maybe a reactive dog training class). I think this is an important timeframe in any dog's development. Training games with the dog help them to learn boundaries and provide a positive leadership role. |

asked a question | What do other sitters do for Tax Deductions? This is my first year as a Rover dog sitter, and it's going well. I dog-sit in my home. I want to know what other sitters do about Tax Deductions. Does it depend on state? Would you include things like treats, toys, beds, and food purchased for client dogs? Would you include replacing the IPAD I use for managing my business if it crashed or was chewed on? Would you include cleaning supplies used, or hiring out carpet and upholstery cleaning? Would you include the cost to replace damaged household items like, chewed pillow, or peed on carpeting? Would you include gas mileage to travel to meet and greets? What about vet bills for your own dog? Would you include the cost of training classes for you and your dog, considering all dogs benefit and I do provide some training to clients dogs when with me (which they love). Any tips on this would be greatly appreciated! Anything I missed? Do you just keep receipts in a shoe box? Thanks in advance! |
