<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="theme-text-color-2-4"><span style="font-size: 18px;"><br />A professional pet sitter should have a business license, carry liability insurance and have experience caring for pets. All of our sitters carry Washington State business licenses, have received background checks, and are covered under our company insurance coverage. In addition, with over 13 years of experience, SnR Pet Care has not only welcomed many family pets into our care network, we have built relationships with local vets, groomers, trainers and animal rescue groups.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="theme-text-color-2-4"><span style="font-size: 18px;"><b><br />"But my Neighbor's Son's Friend's Cousin does Pet Sitting!"</b></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="theme-text-color-2-4"><span style="font-size: 18px;"><br />If you decide to use a non-professional sitter, it is important to exercise caution. What is the vetting process for the person you will bring into your home to care for your most vulnerable family member? Will they be there when they say they will? Will they recognize when Fluffy isn’t feeling well, or let her run out the front door when they enter your home? Will they invite their friends over to your empty home in your absence? You don’t need to worry about what’s going on when you hire SnR Pet Care. We conduct ourselves professionally and will treat your pets and home with utmost care. We are dedicated, experienced, and happy to answer any questions you may have.<b></b></span></span></div>
<div>
<span class="theme-text-color-2-4"><span style="font-size: 18px;"><b><br />"There's an App for that"</b></span></span></div>
<span class="theme-text-color-2-4"><span style="font-size: 18px;"><br />Some services just don’t lend themselves to on-demand smartphone apps. It’s okay to order a pizza or a ride – it might not be so okay to order a dog walker or petsitter who may/may not have experience and may/may not carry insurance and may/may not even show up. We are a small, independently owned pet sitting company and work very hard to provide a high level of care and give you a stress free time away. Pet sitting is all we do and we take our jobs very seriously.</span></span>Sandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15933849656922655847noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1514418306024522830.post-15633433269595163852019-03-06T13:25:00.004-08:002019-03-06T13:25:36.462-08:00Six Year Anniversary!! March 1 was the six year anniversary of the beginning of my labor of love, SnR Pet Care. I want to thank all of my friends, family and wonderful clients for their support! Thank you for trusting me with the care of your fur kids - I love them as if they were my own. Didn't we have fun in February with all of the snow! A special thanks to clients who had scheduled service during those two weeks, when some of us (me included) couldn't even get out of our driveways and were so flexible. Spring can't get here fast enough, and as I post this, it's snowing again - on March 6!!<br />

It can't have been over a year since I posted to my SnR Blog...I'm redoing my website, and needed to link my blog. I'm happy to report that Ms. Whoopi is still with me, going strong! Well, strong for a 15 year old dog! She's developed some strange habits, carpet licking, which she prefers at say 3am. It's truly like living with a senior relative. Every morning, starting at about 5:30am, she starts hitting the bed with her paw and barking (a loose term, she's very hoarse) to get me out of bed, go for her walk, so we can start our day. Business is booming, I like to tell people I haven't had a day off in almost two months (true story), but I wouldn't have it any other way. It's a very nice problem to have. I still have my geriatric dog, my clients and business is wonderful, and my son graduates from college in about 4 months. High hopes for 2018!

I wanted to take a moment and thank all of my wonderful clients and friends for a great 2016. I wanted to thank Ms. Whoopi as well.<br />
<br />
Despite the odds of being a larger dog and a rescue, Ms. Whoopi continues to wake up daily (at 6am no less) and urge me out for her morning walk. We adopted her in January of 2005, and were told she was two years old. If that is accurate, she will be 14 in a few months. She has been a reassuring presence in my life for many years, very quirky and loving. I cannot contemplate the morning she doesn't wake me at 6am to walk, and am grateful at this point for every day we have together.<br />
<br />
Best wishes for a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Here's to 2017!!! :)<br />

Did you know that it's a really good idea to check in with your pet sitter when you return home? It lets us know you have arrived home safely and your pets are back under your care.<br />
<br />
Jack and Stella's folks thought of a very cute and creative way to let us know they were home.<br />
<br />
Belated Happy Birthday wishes to these two sweethearts, who turned 10 this past week.<br />
