I went last year. Definitely worth it.
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
I used Aussie Housesitters once and it worked out really well. Our dog at the time was elderly and a bit arthritic and wouldn’t have coped well in a kennel, was better for him to have the comfort of his own home. Look for sitters with good reviews, and you can ask a potential house sitter for a video call before hand to see if you click. I think if I was to do again I’d offer the house sitter a payment or go through a paid service, because I was so grateful that our dog was well looked after.

Yeah Melbcat isn’t eating her biscuits. She’s actually reminding me when it’s time for wet meals and getting fussed if they’re late (not usual), wanting much larger portions, asking for extra meals, and the fresh biscuits are untouched. She’s going back to the vet soon to check her teeth.
I thought it was her tummy but maybe not. I hope this brand’s factory hasn’t started making the kibbles rock hard to the point of being impossible to eat. So many issues with that is why we switched from the last one and there’s not many she can tolerate.
Does she need to eat biscuits? Some cats will only ever like wet food and get their cronch from dry treats.
Normally she adores her biscuits and likes having a little snack. I free feed because I want her to keep her weight up.
It also takes the pressure off me if I’m a bit late with wet meals or am sick and risk missing one. It’s insurance
