[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I board my small dogs at a sitter's home when I travel, and I am also a sitter for small dogs myself. I have also fostered dozens of dogs over 10 years. To answer your questions:

"So my questions are: does anyone have an opinion on sleeping in crates vs out, expecting pictures or updates via text or Facebook, or being with other dogs all day (supervised, in theory)."

--I don't crate my dogs or my clients' dogs. However, if a client wanted their dog crated because that is what the dog is used to and the client brought their own crate, I would use it. I do whatever is best for the dog.

--I text several photos a day to my clients. I don't think it's reasonable to expect that every day when the sitter has a full house (of dogs) over the holidays.

--Most dogs do fine with other dogs all day. If they don't, they can hang out behind gates in another room. I can tell you, though, that a 10-month old puppy is going to be a handful for the sitter and will annoy some of the other dogs, especially older ones. [/quote]

Hi - thanks for the feedback! So my pup may be the biggest problem (although she will have other puppies there) Do you have any other suggestions? She does only take small/medium dogs. which I know doesn't change much.[/quote]

Other suggestions for what? For a sitter? [/quote]
