Need of help, advice or recommendation! I have a 5 month old golden retriever. She is a doll and full of love. My retired father has been taking care of her for me on my work days (taking her for a walk, potty, etc). Recently my father was diagnosed with lung cancer and needed emergency surgery. I was able to use a friend to let my pup out for me while I was at the hospital with my Dad. As of the end of this week, they are no longer able to help. It will take some time for my dad to recover before he can baby sit again. I am looking for 2/3 days per week for care for my pup at least till the end of January maybe a week or two in February. I called a few local Doggie day cares in the area and because it is not a weekly commitment (only for a few weeks) and she is not spade (she is to little she has it scheduled for February) no one will take her. I am in a serious bind and have missed so much work already. Does anyone know of any doggy day cares that will make an exception? Has anyone had experience with in home service? I am not entirely comfortable letting a stranger in my home. I'm desperate and appreciate any information!!!!
