[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think depending on the kid, yes, but as a parent of a kid that age, I'll say that between school and activities, my kid is not home enough to provide good dog care. Plus I think it would be lonely and weird for him to sleep in another house--it would be for me, especially if you aren't there during daylight hours.[/quote] Sorry, just saw it's for this summer. I don't know. I think kids, even good ones, tend to push boundaries the summer before college. Also, even a responsible kid likely isn't experienced enough with houses to be a great housesitter. If the dog got sick, or the dishwasher leaked, for example, I'm not sure my kid would know how to handle it. So if something unusual happened, figuring out what to do would fall to the kid's parent, and I personally am not that interested in taking that on, unless we are good friends/neighbors.[/quote]
