Question QUESTION: Hi Susie-I've been coming to camp on my lot in St.T for 25 yrs, and I got a puppy last yr., who came with me and loved Hull Bay, kayaking etc. We had a super time. But I have a friend coming to visit who would like to go to Virgin Gorda, but don't know how to go about finding someone trustworthy. Fiona is an affectionate, 11 lb. pekapoo who loves everyone. Any suggestions?Thanks! Judy
ANSWER: Hi Judy- There is only one person listed in the local yellow pages for pet sitting. It's "Paul's Pampered Pooches" and the # is 340-344-3399. I'm an animal owner too so I understand your concern. After you contact that #, let me know what he charges. Perhaps you may want to consider having me go over and walk, water, feed, etc.- Fiona twice a day, while you're in Virgin Gorda. I had been kncokng around the idea of starting a pet sitting biz myself. The tentative name is "Beastie Butlers." Ironic you should inquire about this! ;o) Let me know and best of luck to you. Happy New Year to you, your friend and Fiona!
Respectfully,
Susie

BUT I used the link they gave me, and it only brought up the main menu :0( Please try again or email me direct @ since I leave tomorrow night. Thx! Judy
Answer Hi Judy-
I hope you get this email before you go. I'm sorry, I can't email you direct since I don't know your email address. Anyway, I also live in the Frenchman's Bay area, about a 2 minute drive from Antilles School. If you would like to get together for lunch or something, you can email me at visusiewins@yahoo.com. Or you can call/leave a message at 340-776-7875. Have a safe trip!
