Dog from Lexington Rd fire needs good home!

This dog was saved from the Lexington Rd House fire today. This is Mickey. Apparently, the owner let the dog out before the fire started. Mickey was found scared and shivering this morning at Stringtown Elementary. Teachers cared for Mickey and called us to assist. Mickey is now at VHS. They will evaluate him and if no family or friends are found, he will be available for adoption. Please help Mickey find a good home!

Keep Valentine's Day Safe for your pets!


Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching and love is definitely in the air, but so is potential danger for your pets. Pet Sitters International (PSI) offers pet owners a few hints to keep pets safe this Valentine’s Day.

Two of the most common Valentine’s Day gifts, chocolate and flowers, can be extremely hazardous to pets.

Last year, The American Society for the Protection Against Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) saw a 74 percent increase in cases of chocolate ingestion in the week before Valentine’s Day.

Thank you Veterans!

What a busy holiday weekend!

Sitters were very busy this weekend. Had some good times with some great pets! Here are photos of some of the sweeties!

What a nice morning!

Well, I did overnight care and have been to 5 client's homes already this morning. I cared for 9 dogs, 4 cats (including insulin injection), an aquarium and have been on two dog walks! I think I'll take a break now. Life is good!
