The idea of forming a pet sitting "ring" is an excellent one !!! Many of us are hesitant about leaving town and finding someone to care for our babies that understand our breed. If you are willing to pet sit, please post your name and city and state here. If one of us has a need, come here first and PM someone who lives close ! :thumb:
Barb - I would be willing to sit !

I am so glad. We seem to be on to something here. Since I first posted my concerns of leaving Dixie I found a "daycare/boarding" that boards without cages but it still seems like they really don't "get" doxies.
I hope this works out - thanks to everyone who responded.
and Thanks for getting this started.

This is so cool! Just give me a few more months, and I will be able to do this in my home, too.
Bakersfield, CA - about 100 miles north of Los Angeles and about 250 miles south of San Francisco/Sacramento, and I'm east of Mark and Sandi in San Luis Obispo - I think it's around 100 or so miles.
Terri Sanders , Clearwater Florida. A lot of people visit Florida for the attractions..Disney, Universal, Sea World. I don't think they allow pets. I'm about an hour and a half from there but would be willing to watch your babies if you can't find a closer alternative! WooHoo....Play Dates!
Auntie Karen Hening-Speedone - Bawlamer, Maryland. Lemme know if any of yous wanna go danny ocean. :2funny:
Oohh! Mama said this could be fun! We can share our fenced yard, big bed, tweats!
North East, MD is about 60 miles north of Baltimore and 60 miles south of Philadephia. And we are located about 5 miles from I-95 exit 100!
Looks like we have the greater Baltimore Washington area covered. Let me know if you need a sitter.
I don't post here much (if ever!), but I'm a dedicated lurker. I would be willing to pupper sit for dachsies in the Tacoma, Washington area :thumb:
If your grandbabies are dachsies, I'd be happy to :2funny:
Solly says he is willing to help me. So add us to the list. We live in Knoxville, TN. As of 12/23/11 we now live in Grandville, MI.

I'm looking for someone in Tulsa/OK to dog sit our two Wieners from time to time. I'm willing to return the favor. My dogs don't board well at the kennel. One almost died because he got so upset last time that he refused to eat. Any suggestions to make wieners more comfortable in kennels? Is there such a thing as a good kennel?
Any suggestions help.
Thanks,
Tanja :thumb:
Sorry it has been so long before I replied, but I just saw this post for the 1st time. I am also in Tulsa and I have a niece here that has a Pet-sitting business. She is very good, highly recommended and is insured. I pet-sit for some clients from time to time, but I can't do over-night sits very often, as I have 2 of my own. She does them, though. Her rates are very reasonable. If you are interested, let me know and I will give you her information. I know she has a web-site, also. I will get that info together for you if you would like. Maybe we could meet up for a doxie-day-out sometime! LOL! :apls:

PS (I have tried to upload a pic, but haven't be able to do that yet!)
Also, you never know. May be at a time that I could pet sit here at home and of course the fee is only tweats all around! LOL! Keep me on the list and I will do what I can!

....I mean we need a Madderoo Sitter. We are going on vacation the week of Sept 22. We live in San Luis Obispo, CA and are headed SOUTH first. We are doing kind of a CA roadtrip with our first stop in the Santa Paula/Ojai area. Prefer something as close to SLO as possible because after going South, we will be headed North for Pacific Grove, Monterey, Pescadero and Half Moon Bay. In HMB we will be staying in a LIGHTHOUSE! :grin: I don't think there are many of you around us, but just in case, I'm putting the call out. Give me a holler if you'd like to watch the Roo.
I also could use a sitter for Merlin and Beau.
I am thinking of going camping on Monday, September 22 or Tuesday, September 23 until Sunday, September 28 at Outer Banks with the D.C. Surfrider Foundation.
I could take Guinness and Ima - they both come when I call and are much easier to handle - but I'd like to see if I can get someone to babysit the two boys. I live in Bawlmer, er, BalTImore, ahem Maryland.
Any help would be appreciated.

:verdict: Wish I still lived in the DC area! Been away from there for over a year now. Would have loved to pup-sit! Good luck in your hunt. Hey, I noticed that one of the contestants in the Greatest American Dog contest was from Fairfax, VA, which was where I lived! I really didn't care for her, though! (On the show, that is! Didn't know her in person!)

We live in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. If you are going on a beach vacation or cruise out of the Port of Fort Lauderdale, we would be a great alternative to boarding your babies in a kennel while you're gone. We are currently owned by 4 dachshunds and they would love to have some extra playmates!

Love seeing doxies meet new doxies! I have become a regular pet-sitter of a client at the Vet Clinic I work at. Go Figure---he is a red mini dachshund named Rascal who is crippled in the rear end and has a wheel chair. He is 14 years old and is AWESOME. His daddy is a Human Doctor and the kids grew up with him. They are an awesome family. He had a slipped disc, had surgery, accupuncture, etc., but never would walk again. His doc, Mom and Dad all agree that he just loves the attention and wheels too much. He wags his tail and will go outside to poo, very active and playful, but won't walk! I am his second Mom and love watching him. He pushes his ears against my hand to rub them and LOVES, LOVES, LOVES my attention. Has my number when he gives me the "LOOK"! anyway. Just my happiness to share extra love with a Dachshund!
