I was fully prepared to volunteer at Lawrence Humane Society again this year for Independence Day, but it looks like City of Lawrence, Kansas - Municipal Government is doing a drone show this year!
I understand folks missing fireworks and not being open to change, but this is a win for us! 4th of July in the pet industry is a heavy time. We have a lot of clients on vacation and a lot of scared pets. We know people will still be shooting them off around town but this is a small victory for animal lovers!
PS-there's lots of other towns around us that will still shoot off fireworks so no one will miss out!
The rocketsβ red glare is going to be a little different in Lawrence this year. And bombs wonβt be bursting in air.
New client kitty!! πΊ Meet Mojave AKA Mo πΎ This floofy lady is the sweetest despite her Resting Grumpy Cat face. π Once she decides you're a friend, you're in! She also loves sunbathing to pass the time. β€οΈπ«Άπ
Shout out to my husband Ben Poff, who has stepped up to run and be the face of Lawrence Pet Friends these last 2 months! While I've been on the injured reserve list, he's been my legs out in the field, handling issues, walking dogs, doing all the new client consultations, and more. πΎπ«Ά
Would I ever give up this much control without an injury? Probably not! π But he's stepped up and rocked the last 2 months and will continue to do so until I'm healed and beyond. β€οΈπͺ

Today is National Best Friends Day!! Celebrated annually on June 8th, it is a day dedicated to honoring the special bond we share with our closest friends. My 3 dogs just happen to be my best friends! I've spent so much time with them these past 2 months, while I've been injured. They've been my company, support, and nurses all while I've been stuck at home. π«Άπ«β€οΈπΎ
Celebrating today gives us a perfect opportunity to express gratitude, reminisce about cherished memories, and strengthen these invaluable relationships. Whether through a heartfelt message, a thoughtful gift, or spending quality time together, National Best Friends Day is all about appreciating the friends who stand by us.

πΆβ€οΈπ FLETCHER appreciation post! This meaty, beefy, stubborn boy starts off grumbly with sitters when they first meet him, but halfway through the visits, he wins them over and loves to get butt and belly scratches. He's got a killer side-eye π and definitely embraces the bully motto, "Less exercise, more treats please." ππΎπ

πππππ Thrilled to share this amazing 5-star review from one of our happy clients! πΎ
"One of my cats has some βspecial needsβ that make caring for him while we are away more than I can ask a neighbor to do. I feel so lucky that we found Lawrence Pet Friends. We have used them for 2 trips now and will always use them when our plans take us away from home. They have always been completely reliable, and I can see that my kitties are getting great care.
I love getting the pictures and journal posts throughout our trip. They also help us by watering plants, putting out the trash for pickup, and bringing in packages while weβre gone. I love that their forms ask about things like where water shut off and electrical boxes areβ¦. They are ready to take care of anything while weβre gone! I definitely feel like we get what weβre paying for." β€οΈ
We will come to your home to feed and water your pets; walk them, play with them. Our team of awesome pet sitters will give your furry kids lots of love and affection in your home, surrounded by everything thatβs familiar to them!

π£π£ NEW PET SITTER ADDITION!! Meet Shae! She rounds out our team of pet sitters for this busy Memorial Day weekend.
Hello! Iβm Shae. Iβm a huge fan of animals and love having pets be a part of our lives. Itβs a special thing to find our furry, scaly, or feathered friends to be our friends and stay by our sides always.
I, myself, have a cute and ornery brown kitty named Carl that was given to me from my grandmotherβs farm. And she has quickly become my mini me, which is so cuteβ¦ most days.
Itβs so great getting to love my bratty fur baby, but even better that I get to share love with all the other pets I come across and care for, too. What a great experience to be a part of! π»πΎππββ¬
π£π£ Huskie Lovers meet Zeema/Tyen-7 and 11 year old Huskies up for adoption Lawrence Humane Society! This bonded pair are very chill (for huskies). They are non reactive but are afraid of other dogs! Tyen is a great older brother and will body block to protect Zeema from potential harm. They get super stressed out from being away from each other, so they are in the same kennel, which can be a bit cramped for the two of them! Please spread the word and SHARE to help find this duo a new home π‘ πΆπΎπ
