Anyone have pets? I’m talking cats and dogs, not snakes, emus or porcupines! My wife and I have two fantastic cats. When we lived in Arizona and left town for a while we had neighbors that would come over while we were away and take care of the cats. They would clean the litter bin, feed them and pet them (they are friendly). And when they would go on vacation, we would do the same for their cats. Dogs might be a little different. They don’t like being alone and they might start chewing on things and going to the bathroom everywhere. But we have known people that would take in their neighbors dogs and return them when they returned.

If you have a cat or dog and would like to connect with others to do this kind of reciprocal pet care, please leave a comment or go to the contact us page and send us a note with your name, address and phone number and we will contact you. Hopefully, we’ll make a little pod of pet watching people!
