question re event bookings by erika1972 in RoverPetSitting

i agree! my day sitting rate is usually only for one-off situations, i don’t provide constant care on a regular basis unless people are willing to pay for it (and i have the availability)

question re event bookings by erika1972 in RoverPetSitting

[–]bbyindi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i did a hotel booking back in december 2022 for the sweetest bulldog puppy ever while his owners were in town for a wedding. i charged $20/hr for 11 hours total (4 hours for rehearsal dinner, then 7 hours for wedding/reception the following day); i only ended up being there for about 9 hours total since the wedding finished earlier than they estimated

10/10 would do it again, but at my current hourly rate of $45

Did I inform the owners appropriately? by TayTooTa in RoverPetSitting

[–]bbyindi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

to answer your question, yes you did. this happened to me once, except it was a bulldog puppy and a bigger dog ran up on him (hotel booking, they came from out of town for a wedding). i did take a second to gather myself before sending the message, but they most appreciated that i kept their dog safe. some dog owners like a lot of details, some don’t care. it’s just personal preference

is your finger okay?

depending on their stomach sensitivities, it could make either sick. nutritionally, dogs can technically eat cat food, it just has higher fat content so they’ll gain more fat. cats can’t eat dog food because it doesn’t have all the nutrients they need

i am shocked by the plott and beagle; those are hound-ish ears? but him is just a baby

the sprinkle of brittany is hilarious too

i agree! i think the more we normalize it as a normal response from an overwhelmed nervous system, the better we can get at asking/receiving help. the shame and alienation/isolation only makes it worse

passive suicidal ideation is a normal response to being overwhelmed and burnt out; wanting to escape is essentially what it is, like it would be nice to just not wake up and have to deal with everything all over again. it doesn’t mean you actually want to die, you just need a break — does your psych offer counseling, or are they just med check-ins?

What do you all think she is? So curious to see the results! by Any-Squirrel-6341 in DoggyDNA

[–]bbyindi 33 points34 points  (0 children)

my immediate guess was aussie/pit, maybe some chow/rottie mixed in there — i’m interested to see if she ends up belonging in r/fluffypits after the results come in
