When a HO warns you her pets are pregnant and will give birth while you sit in her house…
.Thats classed as overtime lol
I must be honest : I never faced such a situation, but I found this picture on FB, thought it could be fun.
What a gorgeous photo. Thank you for sharing an “aaaah” moment.
Hear hear. Our most difficult one involved 2 large, heavy maintenance dogs and a parrot who bullied and brow-beat us for a week. Changed the type of pet sits we’ll take in the future.
Such a precious photo.
Welcome Twinkie1952 to this forum where many points of views are shared. We don’t always agree…
(I’m not sure I understood “brow-beat us”, the dogs you sat opened your brows, biting you ??)

One of my hardest sits was a month in Phuket in Thailand - Beautiful villa, pool, open plan living area with a great kitchen. 5 minutes walk to a lovely quiet beach.
Sounds great? One of the most difficult animals I have ever looked after…Biting all the time, kept escaping, hiding in the strangest places…

Actually he was great, and there were 4 dogs as well.
Trying to be funny, guess I failed miserably. The parrot had been given the run of the house and was terribly difficult to manage.
You did not fail. I did.
Being french, I often misunderstand jokes …
Little touch of French polish there would look nice👌
Lol
