Loving and patient sitter needed for our 3 fur babies

Introduction

My family consists of my husband, myself and our 3 dogs. We both work for the state of North Carolina. He works in I.T. and I work with the dept. of disability. We both love to travel but don’t do it as much because it’s difficult and/or expensive to find good pet care. I’m so thankful to have found TrustedHousesitters, now we can do more of what we love and don’t have to worry about the care of our fur babies.

The dogs are usually let out for their first bathroom break around 700am and then they are fed, after eating they can play in the yard for about 20 mins or longer at the sitters discretion. They have another bathroom break about 2-3hrs later. They eat again at 4pm, play for at least 20 min. They are let out for last bathroom break between 9-10pm. They can be given 1 treat per day.

Deborah and Maurice’s house was beautiful. In a quiet neighborhood. The room and bathroom were immaculate. Front and back porch for relaxing. Didn’t do much of that since it was 90+ the whole time I was there. I did give them 5 stars cuz the visit was pretty straightforward for only 2 days BUT do not go into this sit thinking this is a calm sit on the couch with the dogs type of home. These are outside dogs. They are strong and jump all over you. They will step in their own poo then jump all over you. They are very sweet. Just don’t wear any clothes you care about.

I am giving this sit a 4 star because it was more stress than I anticipated due to unforeseen circumstances. Basically, the girls were in heat and the boys were going crazy. One of the girls got sick the day before the sit started. I encourage Deborah to make the guide available because that can answer so many questions. about the temperament of the dogs and some of their go to commands. Their home is beautiful, and they made sure I was comfortable. The dogs are actually quite gentle and playful, but I think my limit is 2-3 and especially not mixed company. The plus is the dogs are in their own special kennel which made feeding and transitioning fairly easy. If you can handle multiple dogs this is the sit for you.

I had a great time taking care of the three dogs. The backyard made for fun playtimes and the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful to walk around. I enjoyed my stay for a long weekend and felt very comfortable.
