Dear Alan, How are you doing? Thank you for agreeing to stay and take care of Loulou
while
I am away. I really appreciate your help. Speaking of Loulou, she is actually on a diet. She just needs 20 ounces of milk in the morning, and two small scoops of dog treats in the afternoon and in the evening. She may beg and cry for food sometimes but do not fall for her fool. The vet strictly mentioned that she needs to lose weight. If you have free time, you can take her out to the park for her exercise regimen.
Additionally
, please water my plants for three minutes once time a day.
Also
, the most important thing is security protocol,
that is
to close all the doors and windows when you leave the house. You can contact me by simply replying to
this
email because my phone may not have a signal. The best time to reach me is 7 to 7:30 A.M. For emergency contact, you can call my boyfriend on
this
number (+1) 422 622 722. Thank you again for your help. I promise to buy you some souvenirs to show the gesture of appreciation when I come back. Best regards, Allysa.
