If you’re grieving a pet, please know this—your love was real, and so is your grief.
The world often misunderstands how deep the bond with a pet can go. But when a soul loves you without judgment, without agenda, and without an end date—losing them feels like losing a part of yourself.

Your tears are not weakness. They’re proof of devotion.
They’re the language of love that had no words. 💔🐾

Take your time. Grief has no clock.

Flea prevention is the most important step in prevention of Typhus. Message us to get a prescription!

Texas is seeing an explosion of cases of typhus, a disease that, if untreated, can be fatal. The state now reports the most flea-borne typhus cases in the nation, and that more than 6,700 cases were recorded from 2008–2023, with about 70% of patients hospitalized and 14 deaths attributed over that span.

Typhus is spread by fleas and was almost eradicated from the United States. But now it’s making a comeback, which is something that 76-year-old Dana Clark discovered.

Clark is a longtime San Antonio musician who performs regularly around town but had to stop when in May she contracted typhus.

“I am much better. My energy is not as good as it once was, and I'm a little wobbly, but I'm closing in on getting back to completely normal,” she said.

Clark said she got flea-borne murine typhus from clearing weeds from her garden.

“And I created a lot of dust and just inhaling that dust can give someone typhus. Because of flea excrement,” Clark said.

Typhus spreads from cat and rodent fleas.
There is also a situation related to an animal reservoir—a species or population of animals that harbor pathogens and can transmit them to other animals or humans, often serving as a source of infection.
Reservoir animals include opossums and dogs.

Several days after exposure symptoms often begin with high fever, headache and body aches; a rash can also appear, according to the CDC.

🐾 Updated Pet Policy 🐾

Due to an increase in bites and physical attacks by aggressive dogs during in-home visits, we’ve updated our policy to keep everyone safe—your pet and our team:

~ No aggressive large dogs (over 30 lbs): These pets often require multiple team members for safe handling, which isn’t feasible for our in-home visits.

~ Small dogs who are nippy or reactive: You must be able to safely place a muzzle on them for their appointment (we provide muzzles if needed).

If we cannot safely work on your pet, we will let you know at the time of the exam. Since we are still performing a visual exam as part of our house call, the appointment fee will still apply. This is why transparency and communication are so important—we want every visit to be safe and stress-free for everyone. 💙
