dogsitters not so anonymous

anyone know of a dog sitting service in playa? for example, i will leave on a short vacation soon. it would be nice to have someone stay at my apartment, feed and walk and pet my dog in her own place. a local would stay or a tourist would get a bargain bargain rate in a nice place with a pool! it's a biz idea, a good idea and an urgent request.

the dogsitter would require some screening and maybe an introduction.

anyone who would like to talk with me about this idea, please reply here and ALSO to my email address gary@playacitizen.com....pronto!

When are you needing a pet sitter? I have a friend house/pet sitting for me that would be available when I get back from vacation.

You want someone to stay and watch your dog and you want to make them pay to stay?

a vacation renter who comes to playa would rent at a super low rate with the condition of caring for the pet in the home...nothing long term, only very short term. a local would, of course, stay free plus receive some compensation. this is a brainstorm, not an existing plan nor business enterprise.

Gotcha! I was thinking, "That might work with a tourist, but not with someone that already lives here!"

I appreciate an introduction to the sitter when you arrive. I have a real estate company and can help organize-centralize this sort of help.

Gary, you pay Jeff and my airfare from MN to CUN and we'll watch your pup. Or maybe you could set us up again at DOCA?

Fingers crossed for next year by the way. Had an absolute amazing time and we still talk about highlights weekly.

Good luck in your search.
