Dog-sitter help urgently needed!

[tigers_eye]

Wouldn't normally post something like this here but am getting slightly worried by lack of time! All my dog-sitting options have fallen through for the week from this friday to next, short of driving him to some friends in dorset - a long way! Can any of you help? He's a small elderly (but with extremely good bladder, copes fine with being left 8.30 to 5.30!) dog (without appendages), thinks exercise is a dirty word, not great with cats (if they run he'll chase), barks if someone knocks but otherwise very quiet.

Desperate I know, just hoping someone might have a brainwave!

If i had my own house id take him in, but Mum wouldnt appreciate it... plus as i love animals so much id probably want to keep him!
He sounds just like my old girl!
good luck im sure someone will help!

He'd be welcome here (although would have to clear it with OH first), if he is ok with other dogs, but I don't suppose it would be any easier getting him to Shropshire than to Devon! Does he not cope in kennels? I assume you're on hols for that week?

Thanks guys - but as you say shropshire is no easier really! Something will come up..... fingers crossed!

Have you had a look on www.dogsit.com they have a register of all registered dog sitters.
