Dear Furry Friends and their wonderful Owners:
Thank you so very much for all of your business over the past many years, I am sorry to report that it is time for me to close my Pet Sitting doors....I have officially sold my home, and will be moving soon!
Thank you for trusting in me to care for your pets in my home, and hand over the keys to many of your homes!! Your pets have become like family to me.
I have had my hands on over 215 pets in the last 7 years. From giant dogs to teeny dogs.
From friendly kitties to angry cats. From birds that talk to me, to feeding fish. From a house who has had up to 13 dogs at one time; and another who has had over 12 cats at once. From a couple of 19yr old Poodles; to a 3 week old baby kitten ---I have truly done it all!
I have carried pets around in my robe on cold winter days, have had larger than lap dogs cuddling with me on the couch, and I have stayed awake all night with nervous pups who couldn't relax.
I have given injections, eye drops, ear drops, vitamins, many other medications and trips to Vets. I have scooped more liter boxes than I can count, and cleaned up my dog yard daily!
I have fed dogs who only eat human food, and have made sure each of my furry friends got their meals on time. I have even been bitten a few of times! I have sadly learned of the passing of many of my pet clients throughout these years.
I have met so many different breeds of dogs that I feel like I am an expert now!
I have had more new experiences than I will ever be able to count, what began as a small side job for me, truly turned into some of the BEST times of my life, (& some were not)....but I have learned a little something from EVERY interaction I have had with all of my pet clients, and for that: I thank you!! This has been a GREAT job for me, that I will always look back on fondly ~ a really special time in the life of my boys & I! It is very bittersweet, as I move on to a new 'season' of my life ~ and new adventures!
So, I thank you for the memories ~ you and your pets will be MISSED DEARLY, and always remembered! Please keep in touch; and if I ever go back to pet sitting, you will be the first to know!! :)
