It’s Small Business Saturday! Bad to the Bone Pet Care was founded 10 years ago by Doug Keeling. Doug was a student at University of North Florida when he started offering pet sitting to classmates and coworkers. He never dreamed of starting a business, but says that Bad to the Bone quickly became the “dream he didn’t know he had!” We are now a team of 30+ pet sitters and dog walkers servicing Jacksonville, Orange Park, Green Cove Springs, Plant City, Eastern Tampa, and surrounding areas!

Our mission is to uplift and inspire our local community through our work with pets and their families. Over the years, we have volunteered hundreds of hours to the The Jacksonville Humane Society and other shelters, we have donated hundreds of pounds of dog food to rescues, and thousands of poo bags to underfunded city parks. When you choose Bad to the Bone for your dog walking and pet sitting needs, you’re supporting a small local business that cares. www.badtothebonepetcare.com

Share this with your friends before the food starts flowing tomorrow! Avoid giving your pets human food as much as possible, but here’s a list of what they can have and what you should be concerned about them eating.
