Happy National Dog Day from all of us at Woofie's! Every walk, every grooming session, pet sitting visit, and overnight stay is a reminder of why we love what we do. Today we're celebrating the dogs who bring us joy year round.

Kathleen is one of the dedicated pet sitters who makes Woofie’s clients' days easier and their pets' days brighter. Her mornings start early, and from there she's off visiting pup after pup, making sure every dog gets the exercise, attention, and love they need while their family is away.

Short answer, YES. Especially those with light-colored fur, thin coats, or exposed skin.

☀️ Areas most at risk: Nose, ears, belly.
☀️ Pet-safe sunscreen: Look for SPF 30+, zinc oxide-free, and fragrance-free formulas
☀️ Limit outdoor time during peak sun hours: 10am - 2pm.
☀️ Consider alternatives: Sun shirts, doggy goggles, or proper grooming that keeps them cool while protected.
☀️ Treatment: Aloe vera for mild sunburn

What is Bed & Biscuit? It's overnight care for your pet, right in the comfort of a real home. A cozy environment with people who genuinely care for your pet like family. Whether you're traveling for work or heading out on vacation, your pet gets personal attention, a comfortable place to rest, and a routine that feels like home. This is what overnight care should look like.

Great review from R Quispe... "Great experience after a not so great experience of trying to find someone in the Springfield/Burke area. Put me at ease from day 1 of interacting with them."
