Being "just a Pet Sitter" and owning a bonded and insured professional pet care business are two very different things, and it’s important for clients to understand the distinction. As professionals, we have dedicated ourselves to providing the highest standard of care, supported by bonding and insurance, CPR/First Aid Training, continuing education around pet enrichment, safety and emergency situations like evacuation procedures for natural disasters. We protect your pets and home. This level of commitment goes far beyond casual pet sitting, offering you peace of mind and a reliable service you can trust.

With this professionalism comes the expectation that our clients treat us with the respect we deserve. We set clear terms and conditions to ensure the safety and consistency of our services, and it’s essential that these are followed. These guidelines are not just preferences—they are necessary for us to provide the top-tier care that your pets deserve.

During the busy summer and holiday months, our schedules are often packed, with 16-18 hour workdays becoming the norm. We miss meals, family gatherings, and personal time to ensure that your pets are safe, happy, and well-cared for. This level of dedication demands understanding and kindness from our clients.

We are not "just the pet sitter." We are professionals who have chosen this career because we love and care deeply for animals. Disrespect, micromanagement, and poor treatment are not only unwarranted—they are unacceptable and will not be tolerated. We are here to provide the best possible care for your pets, and in return, we ask for the respect and cooperation that our role as professional caregivers deserves. Let’s work together to create a positive experience for everyone, especially the pets we all love.🐾

The pet industry has grown so much over the last 30 years, and is projected to be a $500 billion a year industry soon. Unfortunately, many people still don’t understand what it is we do and the professionalism we bring.

From scheduling and admin work, to the actual pet care and watching over the client’s home, there’s so many hats we wear. It’s critical we don’t wrap our entire identity up in our career, but continue the education and outreach efforts of raising awareness to more people about the pet sitting and dog walking industry.

Florida=hot and humid. Thank goodness for long sleeve spf shirts🥵

How's the weather where you are today?

Let us know in the comments. 👇

☀️If you're dealing with high temps, beware hot weather dangers!

Whether you are spending time with pets outside or driving from assignment to assignment, you should take some steps to protect your skin from sunburn—and skin cancer.

👉Wear water-resistant sunscreen of SPF 15 or higher, and keep it in your car or pet-sitter bag so you can reapply it every two hours. Wearing long-sleeved shirts and long pants, as well as a hat with at least a 3-inch brim and sunglasses, can also help protect your face and eyes. For more tips, visit www.skincancer.org.

👉Avoid walking dogs and playing outside with pets during the hottest hours of the day.

👉It’s important to recognize the signs of heat exhaustion. Mayo Clinic also advises that you call a doctor if symptoms worsen or don’t improve within an hour and seek medical attention if your body temperature reaches 104 F (40 C).

Summer=Pool PAW-TIES of course!

If you think your dog might be a swimmer, invite them in. Just take a few precautionary measures and your dog can join you in the pool instead of watching from the air-conditioned house—unless that’s what they prefer!

💧Make sure your pup is comfortable with water first, before letting them dive directly into a pool. Some pups are natural born swimmers, some are not.

💧Life jackets are a great way to ensure your pup is safe during any water activity–no matter their swim style.

💧Never leave a pup unattended near a pool.

It’s great exercise for you both and it’s also a perfect way to strengthen the bond between you and your dog, building trust that lasts beyond pool season.

Does washing your pet bowls daily really matter?

Yes!🚰

Here are 5 important reasons to wash your pets bowls everday:

🦠 Prevents Bacteria Buildup: Food residue can harbor harmful bacteria like Salmonella and E. coli. Daily cleaning prevents these bacteria from growing and potentially making your pet sick.

🦠 Reduces Risk of Mold: Leftover moisture and food particles create an ideal environment for mold growth. Mold can produce mycotoxins that are harmful if ingested by your pet.

🦠 Supports Dental Health: Clean bowls prevent the buildup of food debris and bacteria that can lead to dental issues like plaque and tartar, contributing to better oral hygiene for your pet.

🦠 Avoids Pest Attraction: Dirty bowls can attract pests like ants, flies and rodents. These pests can contaminate the food and spread diseases to your pets.

🦠 Supports Overall Health: Maintaining a clean feeding environment is crucial for your pet’s overall health and well-being. It helps prevent gastrointestinal issues and ensures they’re eating in a hygienic space.

Make it a daily habit to keep your furry friends happy and healthy!🧼🫧

There are many options when it comes to choosing a leash for your furry friends but what is the safest option?

🐾 Retractable leashes can pose risks such as entanglement, injuries from sudden jolts, and lack of control over the dog's movements.
🐾 These leashes may encourage pulling and can cause accidents or conflicts with other animals or people.
🐾 Opting for a standard leash or training with a long line under controlled conditions can provide better safety and control.

As the summer sun cranks up the heat, looking for ways to keep our dogs cool and comfortable becomes a top priority. You might have thought about tossing a few ice cubes into their water bowl or even offering them a cube as a frosty treat. But wait a second—can dogs eat ice? What about ice water?

The short answer is yes. It’s generally safe for dogs to consume these warm weather delights.

Dogs can typically consume ice in moderation without harmful effects. So, if your dog just ate an ice cube or drank ice water, there’s no need to panic! In most cases, your furry friend will be perfectly fine and may even receive benefits.

But! There are a few potential hazards to keep in mind.

Scroll ⬇️ to read some safety tips on letting your furry friends consume ice.

With scorching temperatures here in Florida, I often get asked, ”What are some things I can do to keep my dog happy and entertained instead of walks?”

Mental enrichment activities are great for furry friends and you can even use items you have at home. Here are some examples! Always make sure to supervise your furry friends and HAVE FUN!🐾
