I leave my dogs at home and wish I could invoke a "No dogs allowed rule" on the camper,
but the only way I can get my girls to come tailgate with us from is if I let them bring their dogs.
Last week they were all there...
Brady a 14 yr old Springer Spaniel that needs help up the stairs
Ferocious a MaltiePoo that rules the roost
Lola a Brittany Spaniel that leaps up the stairs in one jump
and McScruffelz a rescue mutt
Yea I luv em'... the dogs and the girls!!!

Real beauties. We adopted one that resembled the one on the left. Her previous owner named her "Gizmo," but she was "Gizzy" to us. Old girl made it to 17 years.

Any suggestions for finding a dog sitter when needing to leave the coach for a period of time on the road?

There are very few people we trust to watch our pets. I have heard too many stories about pets getting out when under someone elses care. Being in strange surroundings, that quite often does not end well for the pet.
That being said, everywhere we go we see ads for dogsitters, in newspapers, grocery store bulletin boards and local phone books. Pet stores in the area always have info for petsitters. Sometimes Park managers, or hosts are also willing to check in on a pet. Trace

I would suggest you refer to the sitemap you receive when you check in. Many times there are dog groomers who also will board or can point you in the right direction as they will have contacts with 'dog sitters'. Also many RV Park managers can refer you to one.

You might also check into Doggie Day Care. Many kennels and vets have this service for a pretty reasonable price. Then if a day trip turns in to an overnight trip, you have it covered. No risk of them getting out the door with a stranger in charge and you don't have a stranger in your home.

Agree. Trust an animal care facility.

We travel with one Dalmatian and a Bengal cat. Patti the dog pretty much sleeps the whole trip. The cat starts out in her crate, but isn't happy till we get rolling and let her out. We hook her leash to the seatbelt to give her limited freedom and keep her where we know what she's up to. Their first long trip was out to Goshen and they did great.
