April's Pet Sitting

06/14/2022

Hello everyone!

After a year of careful consideration, I have decided that I will be ending my pet sitting career.

This has been a very hard decision that I have been debating for quite some time but, life has changed for me (for the better) and it’s time to explore new avenues.

I want to thank each and everyone one of you for your amazing support over the last 11 years. I’ve forged some wonderful friendships with both owners and pets. I will miss you all, tremendously but, it’s time.

My last day of pet sitting will be September 30th, 2022.

Again, thank you all!

We are expecting excessive heat this week with temps ranging from 94°-100° with heat indices as high as 115°. Please understand that there will be no walks this week. No exceptions. Drop ins will be limited to quick potty breaks outside with the remainder being indoor play. Please understand that this is to avoid not only heat stroke for myself but heat stroke and potential bloat for your pups as well.

Chloe and Lucy love their (screened) porch time.

In honor of National Pet Month, I will be posting educational articles all of May. First up- why it’s so important to spay or neuter your pet. It’s not just about controlling population!

Veterinarians Charlie Meynier and Jim Stortz write that spaying female dogs and cats reduces the incidence of mammary cancer, eliminates uterine and ovarian cancer risk and prevents pyometra, a potentially life-threatening infection of the uterus. Neutering male animals protects them from prostatic....

Summer is upon us and you know what that means in NC! Please familiarize yourself with the signs of heat stroke and ways to avoid it. Heat stroke is can be fatal. Just another reason I limit walks and outdoor play with your pups during the summer. >80°= quick potty breaks with more indoor play!

Hello everyone! It’s spring! We all know what that means. Pollen…yuck. That also means it’s getting warmer and summer will be here before we know it!

As most of you know, my exercise routine with your pups change a great deal when temps get high. One of those reasons being the temperature of the sidewalks and roads.

What about just walking them in the grass? Walking in the grass is a great option if it’s available! However, you must still take precautions when the temps get high like they do in good ole NC!

Please take a moment to read over this information on “bloat” or, Gastric Dilation-Volvulus. This is something every pet owner should know about it. Bloat is a very serious condition that can be fatal if not treated immediately. I’m talking, within an hour.

Why is this important? Many factors contribute to bloat including but not limited to; body type, eating habits, and exercise. I hope you all find this information helpful and will take these things into consideration.

Good morning everyone!

Due to the government lowering the limit for businesses via electronic payment from $12k a year to $600 a year, I will be going back to cash and check only, effective immediately. I apologize for any inconvenience .
