I know this is a common question but I'm still hoping for some advice on what to do with Juno for an upcoming 2 week trip. The longest I've been away before is less than a week, and I've taken Juno to my mom's house. But now my mom is traveling with me. I don't have anyone who can take her, or who can reliably stop by every day.
I found a place online that looks decent (larger-sized pods) but I know Juno will hate being away from home, and I'm also worried about her picking up diseases (like ringworm) even if she's kept alone. On the other hand, I'm worried about trusting a stranger I find on Rover (or similar) for that long (and worried they might flake at the last minute too). I will not always have internet while away, so I can't constantly monitor from afar and might be unreachable if something goes wrong.
Anyone have tips on finding a really good sitter? I'm willing to pay what it takes to ensure her safety and comfort. I don't love the idea of someone in my home for that long, but Juno's the most precious thing there, so I'll get over it.
Juno is 2, and with no current health issues (knock wood). But she doesn't like other people so I'm worried about her going off food (though she didn't the one time I had a stranger come feed her for a couple days). Thoughts appreciated.
