I tried to dog sit with Rover. I have an Australian shepherd at home and he gets along with pretty much every dog, so I thought it'd be no big deal. The first few times were fine, but then I had a lab come over for a meet and greet and the lab lunged at my dog and I got bit trying to break them up. I decided to give it up after that. I think he'd be fine with 99% of dogs, but the money wasn't worth the risk of anyone getting hurt.

I’m hoping to steer clear of any scams by posting & I know it’s been posted before but, again, scams. Anyway, I am looking for something that can be done remotely on nights and weekends after I get home from my daily in-office job. My sister passed away & I’m now helping raise her kids. With Christmas coming, I’m nervous and dreading the season not only to not have her but will I make it a happy one for the kids. I need extra income but need to be home with them in the evenings.
