Pup City Petsitting

This is the LIFE 🐈 🍌 💆🏼‍♀️

I know I’ve been MIA on social media lately. Chasing this dude around and working takes up ALL of my time. Rikki took a couple of weeks off from visits. I’m not sure who missed who more.

This is how I feel when I’m eating too.

Ever seen a cat on a treadmill?

Gracie demonstrates how to properly give butt scritches for two dogs at a time while simultaneously filling out their report card 🤣

Easy enrichment idea from my dog, Cooper.

Sorry for the long post, but you’ll want to read this. I haven’t finished wrapping gifts. My house is a wreck. I forgot to go to the post office to mail two gifts. But I’m on top of the world. As some of you guys know, I’ve been delivering Christmas gifts to your houses if we watched your babies this year. If you haven’t received yours, that’s another thing that still hasn’t been checked off of this busy new Mom’s to do list. In checking with clients who haven’t used us in a few months to make sure they haven’t moved, one client told me she actually had moved but had a sad update. Oliver, her kitty gotten out of a window while she was preparing for her move. This was October 29th. On December 1st, she gave birth to her daughter. I found out about his disappearance on December 18th. If you’re Facebook friends with me, you know that I help run several lost and found pet groups and that I constantly post and give advice about lost pets. So I had to do my thang! I posted him. I had flyers made (thanks Christine from EPIC Animal Recovery!). I weather proofed them. I hung them. I saw him. I saw Oliver. But Oliver ran. So I reached out to a friend and borrowed some traps. But here’s the thing. If you have traps set out and it’s 8 degrees, you need constant eyes on it. This house is vacant. I live 10-15 minutes away. I can’t run out every hour to check the trap. So I used my doggie camera. Oliver’s neighbor let us connect to her wifi. And I turned on the notifications. Well, at 5:54 on Christmas Eve, guess who made an appearance? One hungry and cold kitty who thought he was getting a free meal. Little did he know, he was getting his family back. All the things I didn’t have time to do this week don’t matter. Oliver is home. He’s going to meet his new baby sister and everything will be okay again. How’s that for a Christmas miracle?! Also, I edited to include his real name. I’m so tired I put his brother’s name in this p

One of our clients gifted me Panthers tickets. Of course I was more excited about the Corgi Cup 🥹🐈‍⬛

Enjoy this video Amazon Photos made of visits from one year ago today. Missing sweet Tito and Keona so much 🥰

Kona aka Kony Baloney gets so excited with any question that starts with, “do you wanna?”

Get you a man (or woman!) that greets you like Lucky does when I arrive for his walks.

Happy Birthday Tito!! I hope you’re spoiled rotten today!

This is Bailey. I was warned to be very careful because she can be aggressive. I’ve been bitten twice since I started this business so I know it’s not fun, but Bailey is very food motivated so that helped her be okay with me. Watch her work for her food below!

Time for another Puptown Pick! Does your dog eat too fast? Is she a large breed dog who is more susceptible to flipped stomachs? This wobbler feeder is great for dogs who get bored easily or eat too fast. It comes in two different sizes and you can adjust the hole to accommodate for different sized kibble or to make it more difficult to get out. Not only is exercise important for dogs, but they need mental stimulation as well. Link in the comments. #puptownpicks

At least your weekend didn’t start off like this.

I heard a story once about a guy who threw a stick a mile away and his dog managed to find it and bring it back. Seems a bit far fetched if you ask me.

Cooper’s not a fan but he does like watching it from the window. Show us your snow dogs!
