Liz,
Thanks for so much detail. This sitter is a friend, but will be giving up part of her income in order to do this for me and yes, I'll pay her for this. I really feel as if I am putting her thru a lot, but I don't have any choice except to board them. And one of my little dogs has some deficiencies. He was premature and I didn't realize when I agreed to raise him and keep him that this premature birth affected his sight. He is comfortable at home but really frightened outside his familiar area.

Anyway, this detailed working schedule will help me a lot. I just have to squeeze it as she will not have a full 4 weeks to "train".

Thanks so much,
Billye
