Where the mules put up a bivouac and stayed the night for less than 24 hours. Absolutely not a tent encampment which 647 e State penal code was designed then passed into law to prevent. 647e State penal code is not enforceable against a lone traveler it could never have been passed if its stated purpose was to prevent a lone traveler whether using a bicycle a donkey a horse a mule from stopping for less than a 24-hour period to rest for the night and then pick up and leave in the morning to continue his or her journey under their own power and their own speed demonstrating there sacred respect for the ground on which they stand.

Current clients and any new ones will be receiving email from me asking you to download Pet Owner Dashboard, the companion app to my new booking tool. Pet Sitter Dashboard seems easy to use, time will tell. Probably won't invoice through the app; I want to test ease of navigation and ensure clients put in all their pets. All.of.them.
When booking a dog job, don't forget to mention if there is also a cat, or chickens when requesting care. I simply cannot give an estimate if clients spring more animals at the job when we have Meet and Greet. Even koi, if you have fish in a pond or indoor tank and I'm the house sitter, then please include every living animal that I'm responsible for in our initial conversations. That why my rates say "starting at ...$" for some Google list of services. If I have to feed, water and clean it, pet goes in your profile in app

A dozen reasons why it's so easy to get attached to clients and their families. Their wedding was perfect, bride incandescent. I got to say goodbye to the kitties. I know the animals will love living on their new farm up north. 💞💔

ADOPTED

It's Sunday and we are beginning the day off with a senior who is waiting at the Regional Animal Services of King County for her adopter. Check out Nonna! Let's help this lovely girl find an adopter today!

“Hi! My name is Nonna and I am available for adoption.

I was brought into the shelter by my previous owner over a month ago because they were facing homelessness and could no longer keep me. I lived in a home with men, women and children. I have gotten with cats but I can be dog selective.

I weigh 70 pounds and am considered a "large breed" dog. I am pretty overweight and would benefit from some weight loss so that I can live a longer and happier life. My eyesight is not the greatest so I am not a huge fan on going on long walks. The best way to get me down to a healthy weight to make sure I am eating the right amount and absolutely no table scraps!

If I had to describe myself it would be that I am an absolute couch potato! I love being next to people and just napping the day away.

The kind folks here will tell you that I am an adaptable dog who loves to go with the flow! I am outgoing and carefree, and I just can't wait to find my forever home!”

Nonna is posted for the Regional Animal Services of King County (RASKC) in Kent, WA.

You can find out more about Nonna and other animals on their website at
https://kingcounty.gov/en/dept/executive-services/animals-pets-pests/regional-animal-services/adopt-a-pet

If you have questions, please contact RASKC via phone at 206-296-7387 (PETS) or email [email protected]. RASKC is open from noon to 5pm Monday through Friday, and noon to 4pm on Saturday and Sunday. The address is 21615 64th Ave S, Kent, WA 98032.

This is not an Old Dog Haven dog. Old Dog Haven has not assessed this dog for medical issues and will not be responsible for medical care after adoption. We urge prospective adopters to do their own evaluation.
