Why hire a Professional Pet Sitter?

Hire a professional for your pet!

1. Your pet stays in the comfort of their own home surrounded by familiar sights, sounds, and scents. At home, they are not directly exposed to illness, noise, unfamiliar smells (remember this Facebook post about how much a dog can smell https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=2154860961236678&id=174147725974688 ) often present in a kennel. The alternative to in home pet care is all different, non familiar scents, hearing constant barking, and sleeping in an area that is more kennel than it is home. No matter the best attempt to make something comfortable and warm; let's face it, there is no place like home.

2. Personalized individual attention from the same pet sitter! This allows for bonding and when bonding occurs, pets flourish. They actually look forward to their pet pal coming which creates an extra level of happiness and satisfaction.

3. You don't have to go get your pet when you arrive home! Instead, they are already happy and waiting for you at home. Pet Pals often hears, “I think he was sad when we came home and it wasn't you!”

4. There is no additional charge for a more comfy bed, larger space, walk, or one-on-one time (just to name a few.) AND here at Pet Pals we do NOT charge per pet!! Your pet will not be uprooted from everything they know, trust, and find comfort in.

Cats are making a name for themselves. These hot-shot superstars in funny cat videos, memes, reels, and TikTok videos. So why not give them a special month of glory where we can celebrate their stubbornness, independence, and selective self-sustainable being. February is for the cats, and more specifically it's for their health, it is called National Cat Health Month." Pet Pals encourages every cat parent to spend the month with extra focus on their cat's physical and emotional well-being, and research signs of unhealthy behavior or illness. Pet Pals has compiled 3 tips to help ensure your furry cat friend stays in tip-top shape. 1. Litter boxes should be in a well-lit, quiet, and ventilated room of the house that's easily accessible to your kitty. It should not be in a dark, noisy place because he may choose not to use it. You should also clean it once a day. It's a good way to notice changes that may be a sign of health issues. 2. Even though cats spend approximately five hours a day grooming themselves, they still need our help to stay happy and healthy. Depending on the length of your kitty's hair, you'll want to make brushing part of your weekly or daily routine. 3. Yes. Feline pet parents also need to get their kitties used to nail trims and teeth cleanings. Slowly get them used to have their paws and nails touched. Do the same with their teeth and gums. An excellent way to start with dental health is by having them taste kitty toothpaste. Extend ‘agape’ love to your kitty friend. As Albert Schweitzer once said, “There are two means of refuge from the misery of life – music and cats.” Pet Pals - Pet care, dog walking, and dog mentor experts in the Sioux Empire committed to making people and pets' lives easier, healthier, and happier. Your Pet Will Thank You! Happy National Cat Health Month! Brag about you cat in the comments, pictures and/or video encouraged!
