Our neighbor had one of her boxers slip the lead 100 yards in front of us, and it took off like a large hadron collider. Tater and I decided to try to assist. The boxer could not resist meeting tater and I was able to wrap him up until his mom got to us.

I was walking to my car after pet sitting, and this guy was strolling down the sidewalk casually without a leash and without tags.

He greeted me and let me pet him, and then he moved on with his mission, but I followed him just in case.

He took me to a house that had sticks in the front yard. That looks like good chewing sticks. I rang the doorbell and the man answered and apologized and said every day he goes and visits the neighbor a few houses down and then comes back.

We have been pet sitting this hermit crab since approximately 2012. We pet sit a lot of hermit crabs over the years, often in small children rooms and they unfortunately don’t last very long.

The story goes that he was purchased for an eight year-old boy in 2008 who lost interest in it over time and moved away to college etc…, and the parents have been taking care of this crab ever since.

I have held off as long as I can, but we are going to be entering a period of $4+ gas now. To help offset this financial stress on the sitters their pay temporarily goes up $1 per visit. Subsequently all visits for our clients will temporarily go up $1 per visit. This is a necessary step for our business, and we all hope that it does not last long. This temporary increase will drop off once prices are consistently where they were earlier this year.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the human and dog moms following our page!

Can’t make this up…
I was out pet sitting and Tater threw up in our bed before the morning barely got started. A mom’s work is never done!

As the years have gone on, we have had to cope with a lot of losses. None of them are easy, but we recently lost our oldest active client from late 2010 and I would be remiss without mentioning them here. Daffney passed away from old age recently, and Cassey who had existing health conditions passed away shortly after.

I had less than 5 clients when she reached out to me for help. I was working full time at Bank of America, and had hatched this idea of pet sitting, and trying to make it work. They gave me my first "workday" visit job 5 days a week which allowed for some steady income to begin advertising and building a website. She trusted me with her home and her pets when I was a nobody. I was a project manager and working from home so I would take my lunch break and go care for them because they are in my neighborhood.

They were good dogs, and I miss them dearly. It was a pleasure to grow old with them.

With love,
Chester & team
