🐾❤️ Did you know your furry friend could be your heart's best ally?

Today is National Pet Day so we thought we’d highlight some of the lesser known benefits of being a pet owner.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), pet ownership isn't just about cuddles and companionship – it's a prescription for a healthier heart, reduces loneliness and increases physical activity! 🩺💖

📊 Studies show that owning a pet can lead to reduced blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and triglyceride levels, and even increases cognitive function. 🧠

So, while you're showering your pet with love, they're busy keeping you in tip top shape! 💪

🎵 Relieve your pets’ stress with music!

Did you know that music isn't just for humans? It has a remarkable calming effect on our furry friends too!

🐶🐱 Studies have shown that soothing melodies can help reduce stress and anxiety in pets, promoting a sense of tranquility and well-being.

We understand the importance of creating a serene environment for your beloved companions. From classical compositions to nature sounds, we can use gentle tunes to ensure your beloved companion feels calm and content while you're away.

Here are some soothing playlists we recommend, which might come in handy during thunderstorms or firework displays:

Youtube : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joe-ePqCqWc
Spotify : https://open.spotify.com/artist/5yvkOF9yoEVvhu5Goa2Jv8

If you have an Amazon Echo device then ask Alexa to play “soothing music for pets”, “reiki gold” or just keep the radio on the station you prefer.

🐾 April is Stress Awareness Month, and we're dedicated to ensuring our furry friends stay calm, happy, and stress-free!

Animals can feel stress as much as their pet parents, whether it's due to separation anxiety, loud noises, or changes in routine.

Here are three ways pet sitters help reduce stress in animals:

⏰ Establishing a Consistent Routine: Animals thrive on routine, so maintaining consistency in feeding times, exercise schedules, and play sessions can help them feel secure and relaxed. Pet sitters should strive to replicate the pet's normal routine as closely as possible to minimize stress.

🤗 Provide Comfort and Reassurance: Spending quality time with pets, offering gentle petting, soothing words, and cuddles can provide comfort and reassurance, especially in the absence of their owners. This helps alleviate separation anxiety and promotes a sense of security.

🥎 Engage in Enrichment Activities: Mental stimulation and physical exercise are essential for reducing stress in pets. Pet sitters can engage animals in interactive games, puzzle toys, or short walks to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. Enrichment activities not only help alleviate stress but also prevent boredom and destructive behaviours.

We go the extra mile to provide a soothing and nurturing environment for your beloved pets. From comforting cuddles to engaging playtime, we tailor our care to meet the unique needs of each furry companion. 🐶🐱

Animal Poison Prevention Week: March 16th – 22nd

🐾 Keep your furry friend safe during Animal Poison Prevention Week! Recognising the signs of poisoning early can be life-saving. Watch out for these 5 key symptoms:

✔ Vomiting & Diarrhoea – Often the first warning signs.
✔ Lethargy & Weakness – Unusual tiredness or unsteady movements.
✔ Tremors & Seizures – Shaking or involuntary movements.
✔ Changes in Appetite/Thirst – Sudden lack of interest in food or excessive drinking.
✔ Difficulty Breathing – Laboured breathing or persistent coughing.

If you notice any of these symptoms, contact your vet immediately—don't wait!

Busting the Myth: Pet Sitting is Too Expensive!

Let’s set the record straight: Pet sitting can actually be a smart and worthwhile investment. Here’s how it compares:

🐾 Friend/Family: They might do it for free, but are they trained? Insured? Can you count on them if something goes wrong?

🐾 Boarding Kennel: Often a stressful environment for pets, with limited one-on-one attention and a risk of illness.

vs.

🐾 Professional Pet Sitter: Customized care in your pet’s familiar surroundings. Experienced, insured, and a wanting to bond for your peace of mind.

When you look at the full picture, professional pet sitting offers exceptional value for your pet's care and your own peace of mind.

💔 Pet Theft Awareness Day: Protect What You Love 💔

Our pets are more than just animals—they’re family. That’s why we need to be extra cautious about pet theft. Every year, countless pets go missing due to theft, and it's a nightmare for owners.

🛡️ Simple steps to help safeguard your pets:

- Keep your pet’s ID tags and microchip info up to date.
- Don’t leave your dog unsupervised, especially in public spaces.
- CCTV and camera doorbells may deter thieves from your home.
