2012-07-12
here they come Jennifer airman loves her two pugs Roxy and Raymond but she loves all dogs to the point that she's become a host mom to other canines through the website dogvacay calm I'm not looking to be a full-time dog sitter I have a full-time job so this is kind of something I do for my own enjoyment so I'm hoping just maybe once in a while I can help out someone in the neighborhood who needs a good place for their dog for a few days that's how Hudson a puggle came to stay with her family for a week while his owners went on vacation airmen charges 25 to 30 dollars per night depending on add-on services like a bath but I don't do it for the money I do it just because it's it's a relaxation for me I got you but as similar sites like rover.com pop up can you trust your furry friend to a virtual stranger after all dogs can't complain if they've had a bad experience we do a lot of quality control including there's an online application process we do reference checks phone interviews have web training offer a comprehensive insurance policy to support providing peace of mind for dog owners through technology was a priority for Suzanne Coulter when she opened her happy hound play and daycare we use every technology that's available to us right now which is the webcams via cell phone we use Facebook we use google plus we're a very interactive facility where the dogs are out in playgroup as for Jennifer airman she says even her dogs benefit from playdates and as long as everyone gets along there's no and they love it I'm sure Hudson would give this vacay two paws up in San Francisco and Kara Tsuboi cnet.com for CBS News
