                                        About our Pet Sitting Service......                                                                              

 More than 70% of all households in the U.S. have some type of pet. According to the American Humane Society, these pets are happiest when they're at home, surrounded by familiar sights,  sounds, and smells.  These experts have also determined that your pets diet, and exercise routine,  along with the personal attention provided by our sevice is the perfect alternative to boarding.  In home care eliminates the trauma of being transported to the kennel as well as minimizing exposure to illnesses from other animals.     
 
Please call ahead to make your pet sitting reservations as early as possible ~~ especially for the holidays.  If you don't have an extra key to your house, you will need to have one made. Buy extra food, litter and supplies for when you will be away and in the event you may stay away longer than you had anticipated. Be sure your dog's collar fits properly for walking and your pets have identification tags. 
   
We treat your pets with love, kindness,  and respect.
 
We offer extra services such as 24 hour phone access, crime deterrent measures, watering plants, taking trash cans to the curb, bringing in mail, packages, and newspapers, etc.
 
For more information about our service please call or email us, we look forward to meeting you and your pet(s).

Pet Sitting vs. Boarding

 

How your dog handles Separation Anxiety 

 

Your pet may experience behavior changes when left home alone. They may destroy your favorite pillow, shirt, shoe, or other objects that contain your scent. The most common destructive behavior  that dogs with separation anxiety exhibit is destructive escape behavior, in which the pet is trying to reach you. This behavior can be directed towards doors, windows, walls or even crate doors.  NEVER punish a fearful pet by yelling or spanking, this can worsen the anxiety.  Dealing with anxiety before it happens is the best solution.... When you are away, leave the radio or TV playing. Most of my pets request Animal Planet. "Nothing is more distressing to a pet left home alone than the sound of silence."

 
When arriving at your home for a visit,  I approach your pet by calling their name. Always  speaking softly and upbeat. They receive hugs and alot of affection. I like them to have some type of activity, whether a walk or playing in a fenced in area. I have never met a pet I didn't fall in love with. I try to comfort them as much as possible. I have found that animals respond best to in-home care. While you are away they want to sleep in their own beds, and eat out of their own bowl. They don't want to be stuck in a crate all day. Most of my client were afraid to leave their pets at home unattended the first time until they tried our service, now they would never go back to boarding.

THE POWER OF PETS

 
        There are so many reasons why dogs are man's best friend. They are considered to be the most loyal, trusting and  affectionate companions. It has been proven that dogs can actually be beneficial to your health. Research has shown that all kinds of pets~ from dogs and cats and fish, can improve your overall well being.
 

                                                                           

                                                                               

 

People who have warm, and loving relationships with their pets tend to live longer and do not develop as many illnesses or diseases. The relationships we have is a relationship of trust, mutual support and mutual benefits. According to the CDC (Center of Disease Control) senior citizens with pets go to the doctor less. It has also been proven that our pets create a calming effect in our lives, thus lowering our heart rate and blood pressure.

                                                             When it comes to pets and people, it's all about unconditional love.
