Nannies - They're Not Just for Children

Let's talk nannies! Dog nannies to be exact. When we lived in D.C. we had friends watch our dogs when we went out of town, but in Portland we had a hard time deciding what the best solution was for us here. We toured a kennel, but honestly it just made me sad. And my ideal situation was the dogs being able to stay in their own house, not a sterile kennel with a bunch of other dogs. 
Then my fellow blogger, Chelsie, told me about Rover. Rover allowed us to find a number of people in Portland who watch and walk dogs full-time. I met with 3 different people and chose to go with our new favorite person, Casey. She treats our dogs like they are her own and they adore her. Literally. They like her more than they like me, I'm not exaggerating.

So we have dubbed Casey our Dog Nanny. Best. Decision. Ever. I'm considering putting her in our Will as their legal guardian if we die. She's that good. She takes them everywhere with her, including the beach, sends us regular updates, and watches our home, all at a VERY reasonable price! So if you are in the Portland area and need someone who will walk your dog while you are at work or stay with them while you are on vacation contact Casey at csquillacote@icloud.com. And if you're not in Portland then check out Rover to 
find your very own dog nanny! (Dog nannies are a real thing.)

Brunch time!

I told you they love her.
