"This study adds to the growing area of microbiome research as it relates to animal behaviour and provides novel insight into the links between behaviour and the gut microbiome in family dogs. Despite a relatively small sample size, we were able to consistently identify differences between behavioural groups that differed in levels of anxiety and aggression using various approaches. In particular, the genus Blautia was consistently identified by our analyses as having a close relationship with anxiety in pet dogs.

Given the current knowledge that dietary changes in dogs can alter both gut microbiota and behaviour, and that the composition of the gut microbiota is linked to behaviour, there is an early promise that modifying the gut microbiome via dietary changes or supplementation with probiotics may be beneficial in the treatment of behavioural issues in dogs."

🎆🐾 4th of July Pet Safety Reminder! 🐾🎆

As we gear up to celebrate Independence Day, don’t forget about our furry friends! Fireworks can be fun for us but scary for pets. Here are a few simple ways to keep them safe:

🔒 Keep pets indoors during fireworks
🎶 Play calming music or white noise to drown out loud booms
📍 Make sure they’re wearing ID tags in case they get spooked and run
💊 Talk to your vet if your pet has severe anxiety

Let’s make sure this 4th is fun and safe for everyone! ❤️💙🐶🐱

Feeding your beloved the same food every day? Dr. Tim Spector (one the top 100 most cited scientists in the world and a leading expert on gut health and nutrition) told us one of the worst choices for mammalian gut health is to restrict animals’ diets the same ultra-processed, pelleted food for a lifetime. Dietary diversity is essential for the entire animal kingdom because it feeds a wider range of beneficial gut microbes, supports immune function, and provides a broad spectrum of nutrients to our bodies—and our pets—that are needed to thrive. Nutritional variety isn’t a treat—it’s a necessity for longterm health. Nourish the gut. Build resilience. Mix it up by rotating brands, proteins, and fresh food/toppers at a pace that works for your animals. 🐾

Today, Taylor's Happy Home Pet Sitting celebrates its three-year anniversary. Initially, I felt lost and disconnected after relocating. My previous experiences in the hospitality industry and medical field had left me exhausted. I navigated multiple jobs, searching for a sense of purpose and happiness. While working at one of these jobs, I met a woman who required pet-sitting services while she was away in Alaska. I seized the opportunity, leveraging my experience and enthusiasm. This encounter inspired me to pursue pet-sitting as a career. I established a Facebook business page, created business cards, and actively promoted my services. This woman became my first client, a regular, and has since become a cherished part of my life. My client base has grown from 10 to over 50. Embracing this new path has been a pivotal decision, yielding unparalleled happiness. I am grateful for the trust and support of my clients. I would also like to express my appreciation to Angie Smith , Ashley Johnson , and Zoomie Soother for their invaluable contributions.
I would also like to give a HUGE thank you to Kiley Tighe for ALL of her help with my website, swag, new cards, and her friendship! I couldn't have gotten to this point without your help! I LOVE women supporting women. It really does take a village. I am soooooo very grateful to ALL of the supportive women in my life! THANK YOU ALL!!!!!! 🐾 ♥️
