After a really good first impression and a seemingly problem-free pickup, our dog awoke the day following her stay very sick, listless, fevered, shaking, vomiting lots of grass, incontinent and pooping bloody diarrhea. After a $325+ emergency vet visit, including 2 x-rays and 2 medications to be administered for 2 weeks, she is slowly recovering. I specifically chose my sitter, Celeste, because on her profile she wrote: “When Celeste watches your dog…They won’t be allowed to eat whatever there is outside.” We gave this sitter very specific feeding and care instructions which we discussed and agreed upon. The sitter was not supposed to take the dog off leash, nor to a dog park, but against our instructions, she had her run off-leash at the dog park, albeit without other dogs there… This is probably when she had the opportunity to eat grass perhaps without being seen by the sitter. Otherwise, the sitter is not being truthful and she did let her eat the grass or some green plant/vegetation at her home terrace, which would mean our dog was unsupervised. We expected her to be very responsible especially in this area. It was most likely accidental, but the consequences are still significant. Prior to our pet waking up very sick I had written a very positive review and had the intention of returning to this sitter. However I feel the need to be honest and revise my review for the sake of other dogs’ well-being. A small or delicate dog with special dietary needs would not be suited to this home; however a robust easy-care dog may do well here as Celeste was overall good, friendly/loving and very active with the dog. We are very sorry that a seemingly good experience went sour.
