I have a friend who is currently hospitalized and will likely be there for another 2-4 weeks but is needing someone to care for their dog while they are in being treated.

They aren’t from here and don’t have any family or friends who could take the dog in temporarily. I currently work out of town, otherwise I would. Are there any groups or places that can temporarily re-home their dog while they heal?

Dog is 12 years old, house trained, small (about 8-10lbs) great with kids and other pets. Humane society or SPCA is a last resort as they don’t want to formally give up their pet that they have had for years. I know there are animal hotels however I don’t think they are in a financial position to pay $50-$75 a day for this.
