Very real tulips (‘26) next to a knock-off Arabesque lamp (‘04), a stuffed cat from the gift shop at Middlebury College (‘93) and one of my photos of fishing boats on the shore of Alexandria, Egypt. (‘94) Temp and humidity gauge trying to keep up with Wisconsin’s lightning fast weather changes.

Left to right: Coach Mac (coonhound from Georgia), Trigger (security dog), Zack the Squatter Cat and Fanny all sunbathing indoors while a cold leftover winter breeze blows outside.

Happy Monday from the #FannyPack! 🥰

Tulips from a client, pups and Zack sunbathing this morning. 🌷

Gray and white long-haired cat on table next to much-loathed pet grooming tools.

Another meh #Caturday from Whisker, who is keen on advising me that NO ONE—certainly not her pawrent—asked me to comb out any mats!

Alas, she knows I cannot help myself. 😬

Brown and cream-colored hound with expensive haircut and telling underbite looks on as Fanny hogs the human.

Here is your #dogpic of the week. Tilly always tells it like it is!! #Photobomb by #Fanny. 🤭

If you close your eyes in some parts, you can almost hear Moira as Cate, or is it Cate as Moira 🤔 though you won’t be able to ascertain which tresses the latter will be supporting unless you buy the accompanying soundtraack directly from Interflix! Right this very moment!!

Okay—hear me out. 🤗

“Our Living World” narrated NOT by Cate Blanchett, as it is presently, but rather Moira Rose.🌹

Orange and white tabby cat gazes intensely into the camera in a futile attempt to intimidate me simply because his pawrents left him for a week to visit Disneyworld. No one was harmed by the blue, orange-tipped Nerf bullet.

Client Oscar was locked and loaded today but wasn’t quite as fierce as he looked. 😸

Gray and white longhaired cat with pink nose and green ears gazes off into the distance.

Watching over Whisper this week and she’s happy to contribute to #WhiskerWednesday. 😻

Tan chihuahua in fashionably arranged shirt and blue safety harness peers over my shoulder as we travel to the daycare facility. Oh yes, he’s definitely judging.

Sluggo (Trigger) strikes again advising me to slow down for road workers who may be carrying treats. 🤨

White chihuahua and tan chihuahua eat their dinner in black dog crates for safety and security. All the dogs I watch eventually learn to crate, but no one is ever crated overnight, or for longer than a quick grocery run. Usually for feeding and short time-outs. Both kennels have super cool covers uncovered at a local St. Vinnie’s several years back. The best dog fight is no dog fight. That makes no sense at all. I think it’s kicking in now. ☺️☮️

Trigger Alert ‼️

Trigger has learned to kennel! Maybe he was just re-learning, but still proud of my little man!

Fanny is clearly unimpressed by this feat. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Her expression!

Toni is an adult hairless Sphinx cat who closely resembles a very large version of a peachy newborn mouse, not gonna lie. Toni has EVERY NEED catered to (and rightfully so) and only ceased being one of my clients when her human moved out of Wisconsin. Oh yeah, I have more pics, but you’re gonna have to EARN them! You bet your ass they’re worth it! 😸

Let’s just do a regular #Caturday today, okay?

What do you mean this isn’t a regular cat? Take it up with my former client Toni here, if you dare. 😼

Popped on here amidst holiday work and this one struck home!! Will post more cute pics when I come up for air! 😉 🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐰🫎🐙🦓🦝🐀🐄🦬🐪🐅

It’s Monday so if you are expecting me to pen a short story here today you will be relieved to see that I lack the time necessary to do one justice so y’all must literally rely on the cutitude of the photos themselves. Pics of Bear by my sis/partner, Sarah. Pic of Olive solo by me about 5 years prior.

Short on time but this enormous adorable pupper has already “pantsed” my sister. This is what happens when someone gets their undies yanked painfully northward by a really big bully OR a giant-sized puppy who has places to be NOW not later! My sister survived to tell the tale but may be training this dog commando for her own safety in the future. 🤣

Olive is a gorgeous yet gas-filled English bulldog who is tan and white. She once had emergency surgery diring which doctors removed NINETEEN baby bottle nipples. She herself taught her little humans to toss them in her direction. Olive is NOT built to be a garbage disposal unit despite her lofty ambitions. For the last two years, she has boarded with my sister after declaring herself The Queen Of Everything and thereby starting too many fights in my small cottage. And yes, I took her to puppy training on my dime. And no, I’m still not a licensed dog trainer.

Happy Monday from “Bear!”

Bear is a 6 month old St. Bernard who recently joined the family of one of our first clients, who own Olive the English bulldog, now 8yo.

Colorful wildflowers are caught in the reflection of a car window. Three dogs can be seen in back seat. I think there were five that day?

Pet pics from today for your time. 😉 #Fanny #ohmydog #dogsofbluesky #bluecrew #petsittersofbluesky

Regal smoky-orange tabby cat protests over her right to play pool in owner’s absence by sitting on said table.

NYC Socialite Lola reminded me of a #SchittsCreek scene this morning.

Stevie: You wanna break? 🎱

David: Um, from what? 🙃

#catsofbluesky #orangetabby #catsitting #petsitterlife #petsittersofbluesky 🥰

I’m a tabby so damn handsome I just moved right in with the local dogsitter. Now I am in charge.

Beautiful domestic longhair cat, white with gray. Green eyes that pierce your soul.

Exotic, smol orange female tabby with a touch of blue smoke. I’m from New York and I am very, very special!

Gtfo. My basement box, not yours. Leave food on your way out.

L to R: Our cat #Zack, clients this week Whisper, Lola and Teddy 😻

Happy Thanksgiving from Whisper, who was under no illusion that she was missing out BIG TIME today. 😾😬

Good morning, Bluesky! 🥰
Today is essentially Friday if you’re not a petsitter! 😉

An extremely noble looking pitbull and coonhound mix biding his time in a small dog bed until he can sneak onto the petsitter’s bed.

Goodnight, Mac!
