Has anyone got any dog sitter/boarding kennel recommendations or horror stories they wanna share?
I wanna go with my partner to their home country for a max of 2 weeks next early year, but we have a dog and no friends/family who would be able to take him or stay at our house with him.
I'm hesitant because he's a tiny bit screwed up due to a couple occasions where off-leash dogs attacked him, but sometimes he's really good with other dogs - it just depends. He absolutely loves people though.... Unfortunately I'll probably end up just not going for the trip but we'll see
There's also apps like Pawshake that could be worth checking out.
I just took a look through Pawshake, i had only heard of Mad Paws but I suppose there's alot of similarities and overlap. My main concern with these apps are whether people will even wanna walk the little shit haha he can be a little bit of a pain (absolutely working on it but its taking time) And since he's an active dog he'd definitely need to be walked at some point over the one-two week period haha
