We get asked to “just let the dogs out in the backyard” all the time. This is not an issue with a secure, well-maintained fence. The problem is if the potential client or client does NOT have a secure fence or an electric fence. We have heard to many horror stories of dogs running through an electric fence. We will simply NOT take the chance on your pets running out of your yard and into a potentially dangerous situation. We will not take that risk.
Folks then say “they listen really well and will just come when you call them”. Well, guess what? This is not always the case when the babysitter is there! The pets listen best to “their” people. We would never want to be the reason or a factor in your pet getting lost.
I am writing my blog today to let you know that if you have an electric fence and you hire Love and Kisses Pet Sitting, we will not let your dog out to go potty without having a leash on. WHY? Because I have seen too many times that dogs can just run through the electric fences. What happens if the battery runs low while you are away on vacation and we have no control over the dog because he/she runs through it? We will not take that chance at all.
Instead, if you do have an electric fence we will take your dog for a long walk to to make sure he/she does their business. We hope you understand our reasons for doing this. We would not want to have to call you and say “Sorry your dog ran away”.
