Summary
Do a test run.
Don’t forget to check out part two (episode 15) where I talk all about pet sitters.
Dog Care Questionnaire
To help you through this process I have provide you with a questionnaire you can use as a starting point to ask lots of questions and figure out which facility is going to be the best for you and your dog.
The questions are designed to give you a head start. They center around getting a clear picture of what is happening inside a facility once you drop your dog off. Use these questions exactly or modify and add questions depending on your priorities and needs.
