Decide Whether To Rehome A Pet You Can No Longer Manage

Something has changed, a new job, an illness, a move, and the dog or cat is now a question mark you feel guilty even thinking about. This weighs the animal's actual needs against what you can realistically give right now, checks if a temporary fix like a dog walker solves it instead, and gives you a straight answer. Good for anyone facing this decision and dreading it.

<task>
**Decide** whether rehoming is the right step, based on the situation pasted below.
1. Weigh the pet's actual welfare needs against what can realistically be provided given the changed circumstance.
2. Consider whether a temporary support option, such as a dog walker or short-term foster, could resolve the immediate problem instead.
3. State plainly whether rehoming, temporary support, or waiting looks like the right call.
4. If rehoming is recommended, suggest one reputable type of route to use, such as a breed-specific rescue, rather than an open marketplace listing.
