I will be using this blog to let clients know about pet related events happening in and around my service area, and also to notify them of when I won't be available for pet sitting and dog walking.
Please note, I take care of pets in their home. I do not take animals into my home.

Petition against HST in Ontario
Please read the website and sign this petition if you feel so inclined. Among the many things that will increase by 8% is pet sitting. Every service I offer will increase by 8% as pet sitters and dog walkers only charge GST at this point, which is 5%. If this goes through, it will increase to a whopping 13%. Veterinary care will also be affected so caring for your pet will become substantially more expensive.
