Why a dog should not have to go to a kennel

Of course, you prefer to take your dog everywhere, but sometimes that's not possible. Fortunately, there is a fine alternative to the classic kennel:
a domestic sitter where your dog stays in a quiet, familiar setting - at the sitter's home or your home.

Why kennel stress is real

A strange, non-domestic environment with many other dogs and new people can be stressful. The regular routine (walking, eating, sleeping) changes,
which can make even stable dogs restless. And let's face it: nobody wants to pick up a stressed dog after a wonderful vacation or hard week of work.

Domestic babysitting: how does it work?

With a domestic sitter, your dog stays in a normal living environment. This can at the babysitter's home Be (with set attention and walking moments)
or pet sitter at home (The sitter stays with you, so your dog stays in his own familiar surroundings). Plan in advance a
meet and greet, discuss routine (food, walks, sleeping place) and ask for updates via app or photos. That way you keep your finger on the pulse,
While your dog can get used to it relaxed.
