Reddit Calms Couple Down After Arguing With Inhumane Dog Walker Leaving Dog In Crate For Over 11 Hours

It's likely that your dogs will become lonely if you frequently leave the house. Additionally, if you have a dog and he is unable to travel or work with you, you will need to locate a dog walker to look after them. However, not all dog walkers are made equal, which is a sad fact. Therefore, if you intend to give your pets to them, be sure to choose a good one. You wouldn't want to find yourself in the circumstance you will shortly understand below.
The family of the account u/phover7bitch had a dog walker they truly liked in their new neighborhood. On that Sunday, their elderly neighbor asked for a favor for their incredibly nice dog during their impromptu trip, and they were also willing to assist him. The problems first appeared at this point.
The family informed the dog walker that another dog would be staying at the house on Tuesday morning. But she didn't have to walk her; simply letting her out into the backyard to relieve herself would be fine. They did ask her to come over Monday night to meet the dog because she expressed discomfort about not having yet met the dog. She agreed but didn't follow through.

Because she wasn't sure if the neighbor's dog would accept her, she texted them Monday night and asked them to keep the animal in a crate. They agreed to do that and advised her that the dogs would probably become stressed out since they would want to be together.
The dog walker usually arrives about lunchtime. They texted her at 2 because we hadn't heard anything. But she didn't reply until 4:45 and sent a lengthy note expressing how anxious and barking both dogs were and how dangerous we had made the situation for her. We began to worry because our drive was long, and the neighbor's dog had been crated all day. It took her another hour to respond when we questioned whether she had let the neighbor's dog out. They rushed home, but the poor dog did not get out to pee for around 11 hours, even though she was a sweet dog, so she held the whole thing in. They got so angry about that.

The comparison from the Reddit community has helped calm them down. Most of them understood her anger for the irresponsibility of their dog walker when leaving the little dog in the crate for almost half of the day. It had been better if the dog walker could have texted them as soon as she had the problem so they could get home and rescue the dog sooner.
