I have a smaller rescue dog (18 lbs). I also like cats: I'm happy to house sit or visit yours at your home. I do not board cats because more people are allergic to them and so it would cause more conflict with my Airbnb house guests. I am best available overnight or weekends; during the week, I work a flexible schedule, but I do work. If your dogs stay with me, or vice versa, I would be more the type to take them out and about on car rides and to explore places. I allow my dog on the furniture, but if you are training yours to not do so, I will reinforce your protocols and not undermine them with activity in my house. I have no fixed idea of what needs to occur; I am more doing this as a pleasure than a job. Even if your dog is staying with me, I will not be at home every minute of the day. I have a crate which is comfortable for dogs probably up to 40 lbs. When at home, the dog would have free range of the house. I live near a big park and have another property a couple of blocks away which has a large yard. I'm the type of owner who feeds my dog Acana paleo food, but I am not going to take your dog running....walking, but not running. FINE PRINT: Please note that due to Rover's category limitations, you should check with me about pricing. Boarding is an overnight for up to 12 hours. Daycare is day/evening for up to 12 hours. If you are looking to have someone keep your buddy both during the day and overnight, that is both daycare and boarding, which Rover does not calculate properly. I typically offer a package deal on that which is cheaper than just adding the two, and this is even more applicable if you have 2 dogs. Please check with me to confirm the duration and final pricing. Also, I have indicated potty breaks at 4-8 hours rather than 2-4, but the probability is that 4 hrs would be certain increments. As we know, smaller dogs have to go more often.
