I finished reviewing all the camera footage. It took most of the Saturday and Sunday after arriving home. The sitter arrived at my home at 10:30am Saturday (I hadn't requested her to start until the afternoon, but she said she happened to be off work so would show up early). She started drinking the seltzers on the front porch at 11:00am that day. She notices the camera and tries to hide the cans in her dress as she drinks them outside Saturday and Sunday. She also smokes outside those days. I found an empty HHC sativa cigarette box, and saw her bring that into the house, plus found a lighter - I assume that's what she was smoking.   
  
Her boyfriend starts showing up on Tuesday and shows up every day after that, usually twice a day. I've never met him and never agreed to allow him in my house. She appears drunk while leaving Tuesday at 6:30pm, and no one returns until she comes back Wednesday at 8:30am, also stumbling. She sent me an update at 3:30am (while not even at my house) to say she had a stomach bug and ask about my one dog barking in the bathroom (I responded saying she was asking for water). That was the last communication I had from her until Friday morning, when her BF tried to get into the house with her code. I sent several messages and requests for updates, via Rover and WhatsApp, but didn't hear back.   
  
The first time the door opens on Thursday is at 3:45pm when her boyfriend shows up. It's possible she let the dogs out in the back yard, but until then they had been going out the side door (with the camera) quite often, so I suspect they weren't let out at all that day. Watching the full video, her BF has a moment of breaking down crying (facing the outdoor camera with his back to her) after finding her, so I don't think he was encouraging her to drink. His full comment, after listening very closely, is "take one last shot and then we'll go" and there's another, quieter, "we gotta get outta here". I think he was just trying to convince her to leave. I do think it's possible she was actually in the hospital. I never saw anyone else show up to the house, so given how much she drank, she absolutely should have been in the hospital.   
  
In general, the videos were a lot of just the dogs being outside, barking to come in, wandering around, and Ginny begging for someone to throw her Frisbee. It was so hard to watch them be ignored like that. I feel guilty for not keeping a closer eye on my camera. I normally watch the door locking and unlocking, and use that to check the camera, but she wasn't locking it, even over night or when she left the house. I know I wouldn't have caught the early signs of drinking the seltzers unless I was watching every single video, but I am feeling the parent guilt over everything my babies went through.   
  
I have written out a full timeline of events, saved all relevant videos, saved screenshots of all conversations on WhatsApp and Rover, printed all emails with Rover, included a copy of my dog sitting instructions, and collected every photo from myself and my friends. I updated the itemized list to include the actual amount of time my friends spent here, screenshots of uber costs, and things like that, plus court costs. I ordered all photos to be printed to bring to court. I'm not sure how to share the videos other than bring my tablet to court, but I took the most damning screenshot from every video and added that to the printed photos. I officially filed paperwork for a civil suit against her, and the sheriff has everything to serve her. After double checking all the costs of everything, getting the total from the house keeper, and adding in court-related costs, I am suing for $1,124. If all goes well, court will be mid-May.   
  
I searched public records in my area for her, and she has no record (for crimes or probation) that I could find. I am guessing the synthetic urine was to pass a drug screen for work.   
  
I was able to get a house keeper to come Monday to help with the sticky mess and gross bathrooms. I've been doing laundry for days, in between all the documentation. Everything in my house feels gross and violated.   
  
The pups are acting relatively normal, maybe little more tired than usual. The independent hound dog is definitely clingier than usual, and actually listening when I tell her to come. The Carolina dog couldn't possibly get more clingy than she already was, and she's acting perfectly normal. I took them on a car ride with me to get food because I couldn't bear to leave them, and they got spoiled with some chicken nuggets. They are getting extra treats and love. The vet said that after 6 days without it, the Prozac is basically out of Ginny's system and it could take another 6-8 weeks to see full effects again. There is also a chance it will not work at all anymore after suddenly stopping it. So far it does seem she is calmer so I'm hoping she is feeling better to be back on it and home safe with momma.

UPDATE! Sitter drank all my alcohol then abandoned my pets
