My "Honey" (cocker spaniel) of 14 years passed in 2006...I think I'm ready to purchase a new baby, but I work fulltime and go to college partime. My boyfriend (we live together) works fulltime and will help when I go to school at night. But I want back up for my baby for those times I can not get home right away to walk or feed him/her. If anyone knows a good website or reference it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I recomend that you try to find a doggy daycare. It is sooo hard for a puppy to be kept in the house all day and only being walked once. At a doggy daycare they get constant stimulation and excersice, which is very very good for a young pup. Try searching yahoo or google for some places near you. Good Luck
i dont know a website however you could check the advertiser or even place an ad yourself either that or the yellow pages there are companys just for that kinda like a babysitting company but for dogs if you really want an internet site though just type in search dogsitters or pet walkers pick a key word you'll be aight
Try the local kennel clubs, vet school, or training clubs -- they usually have lists of people who can dog sit. Also --ask the local veterinarians, look in the Yellow Pages -- under pet sitting, house sitting and dog sitting. Most are bonded and may be licensed
During the summer -- you might be able to find a responsible neighbor kid who would help out for a couple of dollars a day.
Good luck!
I've recently become addicted to Craigslist.org. It's basically online classified ads, but you can find practically ANYTHING here. When you first log on,you'll get the San Fransisco area, so click on Georgia and then on Atlanta. I would try the Pets section first, then maybe the Looking for Employment section.
On the Pets section for my town, there are ALWAYS people advertising their pet walking/sitting services. You can also post to this section asking if anyone offers these services.
Please be aware though that looking for services online can be dangerous. Make sure you are being safe about it, and research the business you are interested in thoroughly.
Hope this helps!
The website for Pet Sitters International is petsit.com. They have a free locator service by zip code for finding pet sitters, dog walkers, and doggy day care.
