Dog sitter for LA's #1 dog (Hollywood / Westside)
Hi guys!
This is Junior, aka LA's #1 dog. He's a mini dachshund with a real soft spot for Pupperoni.
And this is Junior's dad (that's me - Josh).
Fortunately for Junior, his dad cares a lot about him and just ain't havin' no kennels or cages for him. He gets to come to work with Dad every day. Pretty sweet gig, eh? Well, here's the trouble: Dad owns a software company, and that means dad travels a lot. Junior needs somebody who is just superduperfrigginawesome to look after him while Dad is out of town.
Up to this point, Junior had an awesome sitter named Will who was super reliable....he and Junior were best buds. Unfortunately for Junior, Will's music career took off and he's currently traveling the world kicking a** as an epic rockstar or something like that. So Junior needs a new best bud.
Ideally, Junior's new best bud would have most or all of the following:
First off, Junior needs to be able to kick it at your spot, no exceptions to that one. This isn't a come by his spot every day or so gig.
Local to Hollywood/Venice/Santa Monica area (Melrose/La Brea is where Junior and I kick it, but we're moving to Venice/Santa Monica soon)
Work at home or are home most of the time. Junior gets hot flashes when he's left alone for long periods. If you do something low key out of your house, like teach ukelele or sell easy bake ovens on eBay, that works just fine for us.
Available pretty much whenever, and ideally on short notice. Sometimes Dad has to travel unexpectedly and he might have to drop the tyke off on short notice.
If you've got a place with a fenced in yard or some other situation where he can run around like rocket dog (he does that sometimes), that's perfect.
The most important thing by far is safety: Junior's dad used to be Junior's cousin's dad until someone else left the wrong door open, so we're both kinda sensitive to the safety issue. Please let us know that you have a secure area he can be safe in and can keep him appropriately leashed when you're out recruiting actors for that indie film or whatever is you guys will do when you hang out.
So that's about about it. As cool as Junior is, he knows you need to eat too so he is ready to fork over the dough for your time.
$30 a night for less than a week
$150 a week for a week or more
To give you an idea of the upcoming schedule, Dad has to travel leaving this Wed 4/13 and coming back around 11pm or so Thu 4/14 - this will be a good chance for you guys to see if you have a connection beyond just his good looks.
After that, Dad is going to Peru for the first two weeks of May; Junior doesn't know about that yet so let's keep that one between us.
So if you're thinking ZOMG Junior and I can totally be soulmates, then just send me an email with your info (where you're at, when you're around, what your living situation is, bla bla) and we'll come over and do laps around your kitchen to see if it's a fit.
