介绍:
R: Thanks for agreeing to do this on such short notice. This business trip is kind of an emergency.
V: No problem. I've got summer vacation off at work, so this will give me something to do.
R: That works out2 for both of us then.
V: Why don't you show me what you want me to do while you are away?
R: Basically3, just make sure the dogs have food and water twice a day, and make it look like someone is home at night.
V: Sounds easy enough. How often do you want me to take them out for a walk?
R: They have a dog door that goes out to the backyard, so you don't need to worry about it too much.
V: But I don't mind4 taking them out once in a while5. They can come with me when I go for a run.
R: In that case, I keep all their stuff—collars▼, leashes▼, treats, and food—in a cabinet by the back door.
V: OK. I got it.
R: Perfect. Here is the key to the house. Help yourself to6 anything in the fridge or cupboards, and I'll see you in a couple of weeks. Thanks again for house-sitting for me.
V: Sure thing. Have fun!
