4 Paws Pet Sitting took amazing care of our puppy and gave US peace of mind!
~A Lebak, Raleigh

 

My husband and I were married in February 2011, but had been unable to take a honeymoon trip without the children.  This past weekend was our "honeymoon".

We have two special dogs.  Sara is an anxious German shepherd and Abby is a blind, diabetic dog with a hyperthyroid.   Although I felt comfortable with Marie, leaving them alone for the first time was difficult.  I would have been nervous anyway, but the destructive weather on Saturday worried me to death.  Marie knew I would be concerned and updated me about my girls and our house each time she left my home.  We were without power.  So, Marie took Abby's insulin with her to ensure that it would stay cold.  She exceeded my expectations and went above and beyond on a weekend filled with unexpected chaos.

I am very thankful for Marie, her professionalism, and her genuine love of animals.

I now know I can travel in peace knowing that my girls will be cared for.

~Helen L. (Raleigh, NC)


“Our bengal cat, Gelato, is our baby, so we were really nervous about leaving him at home by himself over the Holidays! But Helen put all our worries to rest. During our consultation, she took meticulous notes, and when we returned, her daily written messages let us know that he was well taken care off. Gelato, normally very skittish of strangers, really warmed up to her and we are looking forward to having Helen cat sit for us again at Christmas. It's great to know we can leave for a week and not have to worry about how our baby is getting along. We know he's in good hands!”
Thanks again!
~Kendra T

Michael and I wanted to send you a note to tell you that we have been really impressed with the job Jan has done with our kids! She is very professional, very thorough, and we always feel very comfortable knowing that she is taking care of everyone! Plus, the dogs all seem very happy - and Sabor would "tell" me if things weren't going well!;-) I know you were a little cautious bringing someone else into the mix knowing that we were fond of Vicki so I wanted you to know that we've been VERY HAPPY with Jan!

Thanks for all you guys do!
~Lauren and Michael M. (Apex, NC)

I'm A TV Star, Watch Me Tonight!!

Posted on May 14, 2013 at 5:01pm 0 Comments

By Slider

I am the coolest cat. I made the news!

I had this really cute lady reporter come to my house and play with me and talk to me. She was doing a story called "Is My Cat Normal?"

I am not sure what the answer to that was.

She thought it was funny that I like to answer the door when I hear the…

Puppy Proof Your Home

Puppies are like toddlers; they are lively, curious, teething and they are mobile! This combination can lead the puppy into serious trouble unless you use preventive measures. It is impossible to anticipate everything that may peak your puppy’s interest, but here are some suggestions to help you get…

What Will Happen To My Pets If I Die Or Am Unable To Care For Them?

Posted on July 31, 2012 at 11:34am 2 Comments

No one wants to think about death or disability. Of course, if you die, you are beyond the worry

and care of everyday living. But we must consider those who we are leaving behind. Pets are the part of

our family that we sometimes fail to make plans for. As I have gotten older, I am becoming…

Happy Birthday Lois, hope you can go do something fun and celebrate :)

Hi Lois,
I wanted to reach out and invite you to my BNI's Visitors Day this Thursday. Of our 11 member, 10 are dog owners. One of our members even helps run an organization that helps with the adoption of senior dogs. We are actively seeking someone in your profession as one of our regular subs from another group is in your same field. I've included the link below with the event details. I'm also trying to invite other dog-related services to make it a more worth while netorking for those in your field.
My best,
Nick Putnam

Hey Lois, want to take a minute and personally Thank you! for being Inside919, I wish you and yours Happy Holidays, a Very Merry Christmas and the Most Successful 2013 possible.

I promise to increase my efforts around here to increase your visibility, reputation and business connections. Let me know whenever I can be of help.

At 11:41am on July 31, 2012, Pat Howlett said…

Hey Lois, appreciate you becoming an "Insider", I've added the "IN" badge to your profile, Featured you, and have provided access to the "Insider Only Trainings.

I look forward to serving you and please let me know whenever I can be of help around here.

At 5:31pm on July 18, 2012, Pat Howlett said…

Hey Lois, as we approach the deadline I wanted to personally encourage you to stay Inside919.

Yes, we've gone to a very inexpensive paid model and as we move forward I promise we'll continue to provide increased value.

If you're interested please check out which member option will work best for you and take action.

Since it's quarterly you might want to at least give Inside919 v2.0 90 days to see what happens :)

If you've decided that the network is not for you simply go here and you will be able to remove your own account and past contributions.

It will save us both the trouble of doing this July 31st.

I really do hope you stay with us as we become a smaller yet more dynamic local business community, but completely understand that this will not be for everyone.

In either case, I wish you all the success possible and appreciated the opportunity to connect and look forward to seeing you around the 919.

At 4:30pm on June 19, 2012, Pat Howlett said…

Hey Lois, just wanted to get you the latest update on the Membership Transition of Inside919.

The free Member option is simply not going to work out - with it I have no way to determine who is interested in being an active member and who is simply not checking their email or these comments.

Not requiring some sort of decision leaves us with the same problem I'm trying to resolve. I am sorry for the confusion I've caused.

Simply click on the link above to see where we're going and why.

Let me know if you have any questions - the Goal is to create a more active and dynamic business community.

At 11:48am on April 28, 2012, Pat Howlett said…

Happy Birthday Lois, hope you're able to do something you really enjoy today :)

At 3:04pm on November 25, 2011, Gary Storm said…

Hi;

I am embarassed that I did not see your comment (contact request) until today. Happy Thanksgiving.
If you would like me to review your merchant account, please give me a call.
