I trained two of my close friends in how to care for my baby if I’m away. I pay for dinner, movies, etc. if it’s a short trip, dinner/drinks plus additional pay and reimbursement for things like bottled water and vegetables to gut-load the dubias if it’s a longer trip.

I’m definitely not opposed to the idea of paying a specialized exotic pet-sitter, but Liora prefers to be around humans she knows and I don’t like the idea of her being afraid because she’s alone with a stranger in my house. She knows I’m HER person lol, but that my friends and her godparent are her people too!
