Should You Board Your dog or Cat or Hire a Professional Pet Sitter For Your Vacation?
So you are thinking of going on vacation and have to think about what to do with dog or dogs. You call a kennel and get a price and book your dates. All done right? Well did you really think this all through? The price of a kennel could actually cost you more in the long run when you add up all the little extras you have to pay for.
I checked out a few kennels in the Indian Trial area and here is what I found out… They charge for PLAY TIME AND TREATS!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you don’t PAY for it then you don’t get it!!! Your dog will be locked up ALL day.
Professional Pet Sitter
THIS IS WHAT I FOUND OUT FROM A LOCAL KENNEL IN UNION COUNTY. I AM SURE THEY ARE ALL THE SAME OR SIMILAR………
