You seriously are doing this? Does your T have any clue that there might be a boundary issue going on here?? I am almost speechless...

She should hire a pet sitter or board the dog...YOU are her client and shouldn't be the dog sitter, too. Esp. not paying for any of it!!
Dual relationships are generally frowned upon except in extreme circumstances where it can't be helped (really small towns, etc.)

(Sorry for the hijack.)

I paid a T once for several phone calls in a week that went long after he asked about charging me for a session for all the calls, so I just paid an extra copay.
I wouldn't offer to pay for calls or emails...they are professionals and if they feel like we have gone outside of our regular "time" allotment in whatever way, they will let us know, one way or another.
