Owning a dog means that whenever you go on a trip, whether it's for a weekend or a few weeks, you're responsible for making sure your dog is cared for during that time. Dogs, and pets in general, cannot be left alone in your home to fend for themselves when you aren't there — they need to be looked after. And, of course, you don't want to leave your dog with just anyone — this is your fur baby we're talking about. You want to make sure your dog is being taken care of by a good dog sitter — someone who will treat them right and make them happy.
