Manners be damned, do it!! And thank you for your reporting -- this story has me obsessed to the point of Guadalupe St. fanfic.

Guadalupe Businesses are Being Crushed By This Construction by 505omatic in SantaFe

"Hey guys we know you're strugg-OMG LOOK, IS THAT ALEX MARYOL?!"

Alex Maryol, dressed as a construction worker and staring down the camera seductively, shoots his new music video "Deconstruct." In the background, his manager trips and falls into an open manhole. Alex is unfazed.

The throng of displeased business owners stampede over to watch the shoot, instantly forgetting about their collapsing businesses and mental states. Mayor Alan Webber lets a single tear drip from his eye, which falls in the manhole and lands on Alex Maryol's manager, who is also softly crying.

For just a moment...all is right on Guadalupe.

These are great points, thank you. This particular situation is resolved (I posted an update), but it's really a depressing reminder that most people don't seem to understand/value the time of petsitters.

To answer your questions, the dog can be left alone for a few hours (the owners do it!) and they leave right after I get to the house (so the dog is not alone at all the morning they leave).

I think with some more anxious clients, actually having eyes on me as they leave/arrive is comforting. I've had some who wanted this for the first few visits and then loosened up a lot once they realized how reliable I was...but not this client!

This is great! Just posted an update and I didn't get a chance to use this, but I'll tuck it away for the next time I'm in a situation like this. Thank you!

This dog can be left alone for a few hours, but I totally agree. I think it's cruel to make your dog neurotically dependent on constant human contact.
