Pet Parents!๐ŸŽ‡ Please make sure you and your pets are ready and prepared for the 4th of July Holiday.
Get your walk in early in the day before the fireworks begin.
Make sure your pet has a safe and comfortable space to retreat to. Turn on some white noise or a sound machine to drown out the noise.
Make sure your pets' tags or microchips are up to date.
Going to a 4th of July cookout or celebration? Leave your pets at home!
Make sure you're stocked up on calming or CBD treats.
We know this is a fun celebration for most people, but unfortunately the 4th of July can be a very traumatic experience for your pets.

Itโ€™s summertime in Wheaton & we are feeling the heat! โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿฅต
As temps reach 90 this week, please be aware that your dogโ€™s walk routine may be altered in order to keep them safe in the heat.

Depending on age & breed, some dogs may be affected by the heat more than others.
In order to avoid overheating & burned paws, our walkers will take the following precautions during their visit with your pets.
๐Ÿพ Shortened duration in the heat. If your dog is accustomed to a 25 minute power walk, we may take this down to 10-15 minutes of outdoor time, and spend the rest of your visit duration playing inside.
๐Ÿพ Avoidance of pavement. Pavement can get hot very quickly and burn your dogโ€™s paws. We will attempt to stick to sidewalks and grass during the extreme heat.
๐Ÿพ More shade! ๐Ÿ˜Ž Your walker may switch up their normal walk route to seek shady areas.

What can YOU do to help your walker and dog(s) beat the heat?
Be understanding of the above adjustments. We understand that you may have a high energy dog who is accustomed to working off some energy during the day, but please be understanding that we are trying to keep our walkers and your dogs safe!

Follow the above tips when youโ€™re walking your own dog as well!

Leave a cold drink or snack in the fridge for your walker. Most of our team members are spending 5+ hours in the heat each day, without access to a fridge. A cold water, Powerade, or mid day snack goes a LONG way to help keep our team cool, hydrated, and energized.

Thank you for entrusting us to keep your pets happy and safe! ๐Ÿ˜€โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ•

You Canโ€™t Find Dog Walking Like You Can At Prairie Path

Prairie Path Pet Care was started by its founder, Shawn Frick. If you ever get the chance to know Shawn, youโ€™d learn how important it is to him to align his work with something he is passionate about. He feels the same about the people who come and work for his company. He wanted to find a way for himself, and others, to spend more time with animals, improving animalsโ€™ lives and, in turn, create an outstanding pet service company that pet owners can truly trust.

Shawn spent 10 years grooming and growing his dream, dealing with the challenges and risks that come with entrepreneurship. Once a few doors opened in 2011 the vision became clear, and the opportunity possible. After careful planning, it was in 2013 that Prairie Path Pet Care first opened for business and started caring for the pets of Wheaton, IL and its surrounding cities. Now, having celebrated 6 plus years of 5 star rated service, he and Team Prairie Path now enjoy the rewards of delivering the best in pet care to animals and their owners through Prairie Path. The success in Wheaton was so overwhelming that it allowed PPPC to take our industry leading, next level pet care to Crystal Lake, IL, Park Ridge, IL, Geneva, IL and even out-of-state down in Nashville, TN.

Our mission? Weโ€™re a local business, owned, managed and staffed by pet lovers who understand the importance of treating animals like theyโ€™re part of the family. We live in the neighborhoods we service and we offer the most professional and reliable pet care of its kind in the Chicagoland and Nashville area. We apply our mission through expressing wholeheartedly, to our clients, that they and their pets are part of our Prairie Path family.

It starts with love for the pets. It has to! But it canโ€™t stop there. We pride ourselves in blending professional pet sitting and topnotch customer service to create an experience you wonโ€™t find at any other pet care company. Prairie Path is staffed with professionals who come from varying backgrounds from management, customer service, commercial real estate, insurance, account management and previous pet business owners. Itโ€™s the people that truly set us apart from management to our walkers. Weโ€™re a company that is ready to serve you and your pets and weโ€™re proud to take care of the neighborhoods we cater to!
