A little humor for all of us cat lovers ♥️ out there:
A German Shepherd, Doberman, and a cat have died. All three are faced with God, who wants to know what they believe in.
The German shepherd says, “I believe in discipline training, and loyalty to my master.”
“Good,” says God. “Then sit down on my right side. Doberman, what do you believe in?”
The Doberman answers, “I believe in the love, care, and protection of my master.”
“Ah, yes,” said God. “You may sit to my left.”
Then he looks at the cat and asks, “And what do you believe in?”
The cat answers, “I believe you’re sitting in my seat.” 🐈 ☁️ ❤️ 🙏 😃

Neighbors Name Sitters by the Sea a “2024 Nextdoor Neighborhood Faves” in Nextdoor’s 8th Annual Local Business Awards
Virginia Beach, VA September 27, 2024 — Sitters by the Sea has been named a 2024 Nextdoor Neighborhood Fave business, the annual awards program that recognizes local businesses loved by neighbors. Neighborhood Fave winners like Sitter by the Sea, will receive greater visibility and ranking on the Nextdoor app, a Neighborhood Fave badge on their Nextdoor Business Page, and a “2024 Neighborhood Faves Winner” sticker to showcase their win in the real world.
“This year’s Neighborhood Fave businesses represent the outstanding service providers, local spots and eateries that are an essential part of our everyday lives,” said Nirav Tolia, Chief Executive Officer of Nextdoor. “We’re thrilled to celebrate these important members of the community, but more importantly, being a Neighborhood Fave is good for business. Congratulations to all this year’s winners.”
Selected by volume of neighbor ‘Faves’ and recommendations on the platform from the past year, the Neighborhood Faves awards recognize the most beloved local businesses on Nextdoor. Used by one in three households in the US, Nextdoor is the essential neighborhood network where neighbors, public agencies, and businesses connect around local information that matters. In a May 2023 Nextdoor survey, 94% of Nextdoor neighbors report valuing recommendations for products, services, and businesses from their Nextdoor neighbors and Neighborhood Faves winners receive six times more recommendations on their respective Business Pages.

So true!!!

If anyone out there is looking to fill their home with love ❤️ and think there is something missing, RESCUE!!!
And look at beautiful Zuri!
Remember the breed you are looking for and be sure that when your choosing your pet to be in their furever home that all of their needs are met.
Some breeds, such as Shepherds are very loyal and don't want to be shared!!
Rescue today!!!
Our Pet of the Week is a young German Shepherd named Zuri!
Zuri is just over 1 year old. She was surrendered to a partner shelter when she did not get along with another female canine in the home. Now, she's at the VBSPCA looking for her forever home.
Zuri is highly dog selective and may need multiple introductions with resident canines before going home. She seems to do better with males and/or smaller dogs and would be fine as the only dog too. Zuri needs a family with breed experience to help her thrive. As a plus, she is said to do well with children of all ages!
Zuri thanks Purina for providing delicious food for all felines and canines at the shelter as they wait for their forever homes.

ABOUT ME
Having worked in the Construction industry for 25+ years as a Project Manager & Construction Superintendent, I know the need for perfection, long days, complaints, changes, security and client demands. This past February, I made the conscious decision to leave an industry that was my career for decades and do what I have been doing on the side for many years and embark on something that truly makes me happy. Something that makes pet and home owners happy! And, after thoughtful consideration we are proud to bring you Sitters by the Sea.
Having been a pet owner since I was a child there truly isn’t anything more rewarding than knowing that your furry little friends need you and appreciate you and give you all the unconditional love in the world. Every pet I have ever owned, cat or dog, has been a rescue. I pride myself that I have also helped many friends find and adopt rescues and in turn end up pet and house sitting them thereafter.
I work closely with several local entities and have also volunteered with Dogs on Deployment. I have found dogs and cats that have been missing and found led them back to their VERY grateful Owners!
I have taken what I have loved and done am making it into something that my clients are going to love and feel safe and happy with. That their pets and homes are in wonderful care.
