[quote=Anonymous]I would be nervous. It feels like 10 dogs is too many for one person to manage. Do you have a neighborhood listserv? Someone home from college who would be thrilled to have their own space and earn some $$ over the holiday? When I have walkers stay at my house, they are also responsible for exercising the dogs with walks / dog park runs.

I used a similar "home boarding" set-up a few years ago, and made it very clear my dogs should not be crated. One is a rescue and kind of neurotic, so she needs to be close to my other dog all the time. I spoke to the host and she agreed, and I also put instructions in writing and printed it out for her. Guess what? A circumstance came up with multiple dogs in the house. My dog wasn't involved but she stuck my neurotic dog in a crate without the other. And my dog freaked out and shredded the crate.

I still feel bad about the stress that caused my dog. I know this is a very unlikely scenario, but just wanted to share, because stuff comes up with multiple dogs in a house.  [/quote]
