Reddit Settles Couple's Nerves About Argument With Awful Dog Walker

If you're out of the house all of the time, chances are your pets are going to get lonely. Plus, if you have a dog, and he can't come with you to travel or work, then you're going to need to find a dog walker to take care of them. And, unfortunately, not all dog walkers were created equal. So, make sure you find a good one if you're planning on turning your pets over to them. You wouldn't want to get stuck in the situation you're about to see down below.

This family apparently had a dog walker in their new neighborhood that they were really fond of. And, when an old neighbor and their very, very friendly dog needed a favor, the family was happy to help. Here's where the issues started popping up. The family wasn't expecting their dog walker to completely take on the old friend's dog as well. They just asked her to let the dog out into the backyard when she came to pick up their dog. But, she started getting a little squirrely on them. She tried to set up a meetup to get comfortable with the new dog, and then bailed. Then, she asked the family to crate the dog. And then, she showed up to pick up the dogs, and didn't even uncrate the poor baby! The dog was sitting in the house for close to 11 hours without being able to go outside and use the bathroom. And, because this dog was so sweet, she held it in the whole time. Really, how could someone be so cruel in a profession where you're supposed to care for these animals? Anyway, the family came to Reddit to see if their response was justified. And, we'll let you decide what you think after you read the rest down below.

Awww Puppy Friends

So here's the setup for what should've been an amazing day for both families, and both dogs. If this dog walker was as amazing as the family claims, they probably wouldn't have run into this issue. But, she must be pretending about something, because you're not going to believe what happens throughout the rest of this story.

This Just Keeps Getting Weirder

There's a major red flag in the middle of this paragraph that we hope all of you are catching onto. This woman set up a meeting for Monday night and then completely blew off her hosts. That is showing absolutely zero respect for the other person's time. And, she's showing zero care for the well being of the dog to boot when she asks for them to be crated.
