@CAadventurer it is not a complete no-no if someone asks if they can bring along their own dog. I ALWAYS ask if I can bring my own dog because I have no- one to look after him. Plus he comes everywhere with me.
I can understand how smoking, or small children would be a put -off, but as long as you ask first, then you needn’t necessarily go to the bottom of the pile of possibilities.
A week or so ago there were several people on here ( sitters) who suggested to THS that it would be a very good idea if HO had the facility to declare whether they would accept one’s own dog on a sit and I personally would strongly endorse this. It would save me from at least one rejection per day.
