Jimmy has a sensitive nature, so house-sitters have to walk him in earmuffs

When he’s at home, Jimmy the Dachshund is all charm and cheek – playful, affectionate, and fiercely loyal to whoever happens to be holding the food bowl. Jimmy is like many other pets in that he has a super-sensitive hearing, and can be frightened by loud noises.

Fireworks? No, thank you.
Car exhausts back-firing? Is it possible that the exhaust system of a car could backfire?
What about the Fiesta Days with their lively crowds, music and dancing in the streets? Jimmy would much rather be under the sofa.

His owners, who are experts at dog-parenting have come up with a simple but ingenious solution. Earmuffs. Yes – a pair of proper ear protectors that must be carried on every walk, just in case the world gets a little too loud for a sensitive soul like Jimmy.

Jimmy, a little dog with big personality and a petite stature, will not hesitate to let you know that he is uncomfortable. Once the earmuffs have been gently adjusted, Jimmy’s body relaxes and his tail begins to wag.

It’s all right now It seems that his face is saying.

Could you take care of a dog as Jimmy?
Maybe you already have a Jimmy in your home who is looking for a fun, reliable house sitter to look after his needs while you are gone?
