Independent doesn’t mean doing it all alone! ❤️
Behind every great DOTR Pet Care Professional is a community that cares.
This past Friday, our Dogs On The Run® community came together for a Pet Care Professional Mixer. We couldn’t be more grateful for every person who makes this community what it is!
Elevating pet care means more than providing exceptional care to pets. It means supporting the people behind that care, creating space for meaningful conversations, and continuing to learn from one another!
We’re especially grateful to Nancy G., a pet loss and grief counselor, who shared insights on pet loss and navigating the heartbreak of saying goodbye to a beloved pet who has been in your care for years. We also heard from Michelle H., an independent certified dog trainer, on canine behavior and safety, helping every dog handler feel more informed and prepared.
And, of course, there was plenty of laughter, connection, and time spent with people who understand the joys and challenges of this important work! 🥳
To our independent Pet Care Professionals, thank you for being part of this community. The care you give matters, and so do the people who give it. We’re proud to keep learning, growing, and elevating pet care together. 🐾
