Chances are that when you first chose to get a pet, your first thought wasn’t about what you would do with them when you go on vacation. More likely you imagined going for long walks in the park together, evening cuddles on the sofa and enjoying the kind of unconditional and unwavering love that only a pet can provide. However, now that you have your own little ball of fur or four-legged friend, you are probably experiencing that uncomfortable and anxious feeling in your stomach about ...

Saying Goodbye to a Pet
It's never easy saying goodbye to a pet. We invite these four-legged family members into our home and hearts knowing they are not going to outlive us. We know that one day, our beloved pet is going to pass on. Yet, we still adopt them and bring them into our hearts and homes without hesitation. This past weekend I had to make the difficult decision to put our cat, Sophia, down. It was a difficult choice. It was a tough choice. But it was a choice that needed to be made. I adopted Sophia ...
Easily Organize Your Pet Photos with Pet Photo Saver
Peyton and I love taking pictures of our pets. I think Peyton takes photos of at least one of the dogs or cats every single day.

How to Keep Your New Car Feeling New when Traveling with Pets
Last year I bought a new car. Like brand new, less than 100 miles on this baby! I was super excited. But I quickly realized that I have a messy child and 2 large dogs that travel with us often. Not letting the dogs in the car was not an option. Neither was banning Peyton from being the car. So I had to find some solutions to keep my car looking new while embracing my crazy life. Seat Cover I cannot stress enough how much a full bench, waterproof seat cover has saved my car and Peyton from ...
Enjoy the Outdoors with Your Pet
We live in a pretty heavily wooded area. That translates to lots and lots of nature, aka wildlife, aka coyotes, hawks, eagles, foxes and more. We also have pets, 2 large dogs and some cats. When we are spending time outside we love to bring them with us but because of the before mentioned predators, we can't safely let our cats sit outside with us. A hawk or eagle could swoop down and pick up one of the cats with their talons and off they go. So I've been looking for a solution, one that would ...
