Please read this one carefully - it's a bit unconventional!
Basically, my friend's amazing German Shepherd in Ottawa is in need of a caring, loving home to go to for 5 weeks. This is a completely unexpected circumstance that is happening while my friend is in India, hence my involvement.
We're looking for a petsitter based in Ottawa who would be willing to care for this dog until I can pick him up (March 12). All expenses would be paid, but no daily rate is available. Think of it exactly like a pet/housesit, only you're sitting in your house.
He is a dream dog, this I can verify. He is about 12, former guide dog, well-trained, knows all his commands. Requires 2 daily walks (min. 20 minutes at a time) and that's it. Never chews furniture, only barks at the door knocking/ doorbell (to be expected, I believe, from german shepherds). And I will be picking him up March 12.
Thanks for reading this and considering this and please be in touch if you have questions or even other leads/ options!
