Cat Lover/Pet Lover Extraordinaire: At Your Service

Right now I am feeling pretty guilty. I am going out of town for the rest of the day, and my beloved little ones will be left to fend for themselves for several hours–likely into the evening. What an insane little thing to worry about, I know–at least that would be the sentiments of those who were not fortunate or blessed enough to have fur-children in the home. It’s not that I have to worry about them burning themselves on the stove, drowning in the tub, or anything that would worry me were it kids that I was dealing with.

Short post today, because like I said I AM going out of town. But I feel guilty. Leaving them here all by themselves. No companionship. No me. I care way more than they do, but I know plenty of people who hire sitters. Unfortunately I am not so monetarily capable, so I must leave them alone. It’s easier now, but I must say I always wonder what type of chaos or mayhem I will come home to once they just get fed up of being left alone…

What do you guys do when you have to leave for extended periods of time? I work at home so my pets are hardly ever left alone for too long. I know people who hire a sitter. I myself rely more on pet porters and baby gates (mainly for the dogs). What do you do?
