pet sitting on Wed 4/11

Max and Genny - they are both doing just great.  Max's leg looks so much better.  I can tell that the cone is working!  He's so good about putting it back on too. :)  They've enjoyed their outside time and this cooler weather.  They're both eating really well too (no surprise there!!)

Lesson #30 Learned by this Pet Sitter

I cannot walk with a full bowl of water without spilling it.  I always change out the water bowls and if an owner fills the bowl to the top and their dog or cat hasn't had very much of it, I have a very hard time getting to the sink to dump it out and refill it.  When I refill the bowl, I never fill it all the way to the top.  Something I've just noticed over time.  (As a pet sitter, I have a lot of time to think..... can you tell??? :) )

Lizzie after our walk Tiger is a big guy.  Sweet, but big!

Meet Lizzie and Tiger.  They are 2 of See Spot Run's newest clients and are a dream to walk.  They are both rescues and so their mom and dad hired a trainer to help them adjust to their new life with their new family and each other.  They both walk perfectly at a heel and are very responsive to their commands.

dog walking and cat sitting on Sunday 4/8

I had my phone out this morning while they were playing so I quickly snapped this picture.  They didnt even know it!  They were having too much fun. Maisy & Gracie- they are doing just great.  We've been spending time inside and out.  Last night Gracie rolled over for a full-on belly rub while I rubbed Maisy's neck.  I did notice a large bump on her head.  I'm guessing you know about it b/c it is pretty large.  They both ate most of their breakfast this morning too!

Rocky, Lucky, Maddie and Cotton - While standing in your backyard this morning, I could hear the trumpets playing.  It was very nice and made me wish I was at a Sunrise Service.  I should've planned my morning a little better!  I tossed some sticks for Lucky to chase and Rocky went running after Lucky.  I fed everyone, gave them fresh water and scooped the box too.

Happy Anniversary Sam!!

Sam, Willow and Buddy.  Picture taken 4/7/12 on Sams 12th anniversary as a Hollis dog. 12 years ago today, I picked up Sam from the Humane Society of Charlotte and brought him to my house.  I will never forget introducing him to Sloan and watching the 2 of them chase each other around my backyard.  Actually Sam chased Sloan.... Sloan was always the chase-ee, Sam was the chaser.  I have pictures from that day that I wish I could figure out how to scan.  Sam's face was all yellow.  Now it's all white and distinguished.  We love you Sam I Am, our 14 year old guy.

Jackson checking out the backyard. Jackson - this morning he wanted to play ball before he even went outside so we did!  He's been eating well, enjoying his walks and all the petting he's been getting!

ready for breakfast.....

Lucky, Rocky, Maddie and Cotton - I have decided I need to know where your broom is. :)  This time of year, all kinds of leaves and other "stuff" from outside is getting caught in the dog fur and being brought into the house.

Maisy & Gracie - they are both greeting me at the door each visit and Maisy isn't running away at all!!! :) :) :)  They are both getting lots of lovin, rubbin' and time outside.
