I'm wondering if you found a dog to rescue yet?

As far as pet sitters go, obviously they must love animals.
For me, the number one quality is reliability.
I would hate to leave town depending on someone to visit and later find out that they couldn't make it.
That is why I would only use someone that has an established backup plan if they become ill or have a personal emergency.

And I would only use a pet sitter that had been recommended to me by someone I trust.
