Pet sitter help!

[modpixie.livejournal.com]

I work as a pet sitter. One of my clients has asked me to take care of her dog during a time she'll be out of town (24-26 March). Since I will be unavailable on those days, I need someone who can cover for me. She lives close to Tufts (on the Medford side) and needs her dog walked twice a day.

Who would you folks recommend?

Stinky's Kittens & Doggies Too, in Ball Square, comes to mind. I've never used them, per se, but I have had people who now work for them sit for our pets in the past.

I believe Stinky's mostly does cats? The woman who runs Stinky's has rec'd me to a few dog-owners, so...

I have a regular dog walking job in that area. I walk my friend's dog M-F and she's right off of College Ave on Kidder.
Depending on details it might be quite easy for me to fill in for you on those days. email me. kaz at chaosreigns dot com

An old friend of mine runs a pet-care service called Pupperiffic (http://www.pupperiffic.com/). She's great with dogs and I hear she gets good reviews (I've had her take care of my cats while I'm away but that's not the same, and she freely admits she prefers dogs).

I petsit in the area and am always willing to take on new clients or help out other sitters. I have lots of experience with healthy pets as well as those who need special medical attention. I also work part-time for a vet clinic. Feel free to e-mail me at pierce.ke at gmail dot com.
