HAPPY FALL, Y’ALL! 🧡
New season, new besties! Everyone, meet Molly, Bones, and Kitty! I got to spend this weekend with these sweet babies! Senior dogs are truly a blessing. As the shelters are overrun with pets these days, please consider adopting a senior pet. It’s like fast-forwarding to the best part!

I have a new doodle bestie and his name is Blu! Blu loves sleeping in, being in the comfort of his own home, and playing with ALL his toys. Blu even showed me his favorite toys! 🩵🧸🏠

Just a mid-day walk with my two Rottweiler besties, Callie & Spirit! 💕

If you work long hours, this might be a good option for you. Your dog gets a potty break with some exercise and enrichment as well. ⏰🐕‍🦺

Let’s talk Traditional Boarding versus Pet Sitting!

Traditional Boarding:
• The pet is outside of their comfort zone, without their owner, creating a constant state of stress for the pet
• The pet is able to socialize in communal areas with other pets depending on their temperament
• There is the potential for the pet to contract infectious diseases due to the nature of the business
• The pet can contract secondary issues due to stress that may linger upon arriving home after boarding (urinary tract infections, diarrhea, vomiting, self-harm)


Pet Sitting:
• The pet stays in the comfort of their own home; a staycation!
• The pet stays in their normal feeding and exercise routines
• The pet gets quality one-on-one care and attention
• Multi-pet households get specialized care tailored to each pet’s needs

SEVERE WEATHER: PROPER SHELTER FOR ANIMALS

Community members are reminded to move furry friends into safe, dry shelters ahead of any potential severe weather.

Under Horry County ordinance, all animal owners have a duty to provide proper shelter for their animals, particularly during extreme weather, like tropical storms and hurricanes. Animals also cannot be tethered outside during extreme weather.

Proper shelter will keep animals dry, out of the direct path of wind, and at a reasonable temperature. The shelter should also be windproof, waterproof, and raised from the ground.

The DOG days of summer are upon us and this South Carolina heat is NOT here to play around. 🔥☀️🥵

REMINDER for our four-legged besties, short walks, avoid hot pavement, ALWAYS provide proper hydration, and lots of rest!

My newest client, Miss Zoe, will show you how it’s done! 🐾

HAPPY SUNDAY, FOLKS! The sun is shining and it’s a beautiful day in South Carolina! ☀️🌊

While you’re enjoying your morning coffee and newspaper, please check out our sister pet sitter, Summer Johnson with Oakley’s Pet Sitting!

Summer covers the Marion, Conway, Aynor areas AND certain areas at the beach. We work closely together to make sure your pet is cared for while you are away. Go show her some love with a follow and/or shout out!

I got the pleasure of spending a long weekend with my new French mastiff friend, Franklin! Franklin needed a little medication and love while his parents were out of town. No worries, he is feeling much better now. 🩺☺️💊

Miss Coco and I have had a relaxing weekend at the beach soaking up the fresh air and sunshine! We wanted to wish a Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful human and fur moms out there! 💐🫶🏻🐾

Fun Fact Friday! Did you know Tinker Tails Pet Care is named after my 10-year-old hound mix, Tinker! This girl has been with me through it all! Getting her a teenager in high school, I had know idea how big of an impact she would have on both my career path and me as a person. She has taught me so many lessons but most importantly, she has been my buddy through some really tough times. It only seemed fitting to name my business after my first born, wild child. 🥰💕🐾
