The hardest part of going on vacations now is leaving the doggo behind. While we are going to have someone stay with him in the house overnight and spend more time with him in the day too, I am still just worried and stressed about him being without us. After last year we have taken an approach of having a sitter in the house rather than housing him, and while expensive still makes us feel better he is in familiar surroundings. However even with this it’s not like sitter spends entire day here. I know he will be fine but our emotional bond with him is now so strong that everything just feels wrong leaving him like this.
