Looking for more ways to get your dog out to see the world? Treat them to an Out & About Adventure with us 🧡

Adventures are a great way to expose your dog to new experiences and refine their manners. The best part is you get to come home to a tired pup! Your pup may even take a snooze on their way home, just like Graham 😴

"It's going to be how cold?!?" -Loki 🙀

We hope everyone stays warm this week! Even in chilly weather, we'll make sure your pet gets the exercise they need. Walks may be shortened, but that just means there's more time for playing, cuddling, or practicing manners indoors 🧡

Is there anything sweeter than a powdered sugar face 😊 We love furry friends of all ages, but there's just something special about our senior friends. Maybe it's their wisdom from their years as your best friend, but we can't help but fall in love with them 😍

With age also comes health concerns, maybe it's medication or mobility issues, which can make leaving them behind while you're away difficult. Whatever it is we're here to help 🧡 We love showering your senior friend with all the TLC they need and providing them with the best care so you can enjoy your time away!

Couldn’t have said it better! Much thanks to our pet sitting professional pals in TX.

Wondering about the cost of a pet sitter? You may be wondering why some services are so expensive. But what you really should be asking is “Why are some pet sitters so CHEAP?!!”
There, I said it.
Like many industries, Pet Care is UNREGULATED!!
There is no license required. Literally no training certificate required to operate. Anyone can be your dog walker, pet sitter, or boarder.
But when you choose a professional company like Texas Ruff House. You’re choosing someone who values their trade by taking additional steps like enrolling in courses on pet health, pet care, and pet enrichment. Texas Ruff House also belongs to professional pet sitting associations.
Professional companies invest in a good insurance and bonding plan because your pets and home deserve the best coverage in case of emergency.
Professional companies also invest in their team members. We oversee each and every service to ensure your instructions are carried out.
When you plan your vacation, also budget for the cost of a professional pet sitter and dog walker. Because you both deserve that. 🐾 It's an investment in your pet's safety, happiness, and your peace of mind.
From daily walks to cuddles and playtime, we offer full transparency on our rates and services right on our website. Come find out why our personalized care is worth every penny.

Shout out to our Kzoo Fam of Awesome Humans: Please keep supporting our amazing & unique local businesses during construction season. 🙏 😘 🚧

My beloved Kalamazoo community, it's time to make one of those posts that I really, really dislike making, but here we are.

We were sailing along earlier this year, having our first really good year since Covid. In retail, much of our inventory has to be ordered months in advance, and I ordered accordingly. And then the furor around the state of construction in Kalamazoo hit, and suddenly we find ourselves 39.06% lower in sales than before construction started. In addition to that, all the bills are about to come due, and much of the construction is slated to continue into the fall.

Running a business downtown is expensive, and this nearly 40% dive is not sustainable for even a couple months, let alone that this was to be the time that we shored up for the upcoming 2025 conversion of the main downtown streets. We won't be here (along with some neighbors, I suspect), if something doesn't change. I feel frustrated and helpless - the only factor that I have an ounce of influence over in these next many months is convincing our customers that we downtown shops are worthy of a few extra transit minutes.

I know the "everything, everywhere, all-at-once" approach to construction is frustrating to navigate, but I am asking that you consider us downtown Kalamazoo shops and the personality, heart and flair that we add to our city to be worth finding a new path to us. I know some neighborhoods have more than their share of construction, but a lot of the frustration has snowballed online to making it seem much worse than many of the roads really are. (And other than Michikal, downtown is sitting quite pretty.)

Our amazing community has unfailingly responded whenever we have been hurting, and we are hurting badly. To those of you have been in recently, you have no idea how much you are appreciated. To everyone else, we'd really love to see your beautiful faces.

Sincerely,

Amy
