🐾 CHECK YOUR PUP’S BAG! REFERRAL CARDS ARE HERE! 🐾
You may have noticed a little referral card tucked into your pup’s belongings at pick-up recently! 💌🐶
If your pup stayed with us recently and you didn’t receive one, just let me know at your next stay. I’d be happy to give you one or two! 😉
Something we don’t talk about often as a boarding business is one of the harder parts of doing this for so many years: the losses. 🌈🐾
When Homeward Hound Retreat began, we took over a preexisting boarding business(Time Out Pet Boarding), which meant many of the pups we cared for from day one were already longtime clients. We are incredibly grateful for the families who stayed with us through the transition and continued to trust us as we made changes, grew, and turned Homeward Hound into what it is today. ❤️
Along the way, we’ve also welcomed SO many wonderful new families who have become part of our little Hound family.
But with time also comes the difficult reality of watching some of those pups we’ve loved and cared for over the years cross the Rainbow Bridge. 🌈 Each one leaves a little empty space here, both in our hearts and on our schedule.
And eventually, those spaces make room for new pups and families to become part of Homeward Hound. That’s why your referrals truly mean more to our small business than you probably realize.
When you recommend us to a friend, family member, neighbor or coworker, you’re helping us continue doing what we love and introducing us to another pup we may get the privilege of caring for for years to come. 🥹🐾
So please check those bags at pick-up for your referral card! And to those of you who are constantly mentioning us, sharing our posts, tagging us and sending new families our way, THANK YOU. We notice, and we appreciate you more than you know. ❤️
⭐ Want some extra bonus points? 😉
Leaving Homeward Hound Retreat a review on Google and Facebook is another HUGE way to support our small business and help new families feel comfortable choosing us.
Thank you for helping our Hound family continue to grow, one referral, one review and one pup at a time. 🐾❤️
