Being a Mom means Knowing How to Open the Biscuit Box Without Making Any Noise !


 She lets you snuggle in her bed at 3 am, she wakes up in time to make your breakfast, she makes sure your food cravings are met (often sacrificing the last biscuit) and she dotes on you day and night.  And looks after her human babies! That’s just a teeny-tiny bit of what moms do.

We know motherhood is no walk in the park, being at PetStepin’ is almost like becoming a parent. You start worrying about who needs that extra feed and who needs extra exercise.  Is he pooping ok? Is his tummy upset? Is he bored? WHAT is he up to now?!  Who needs the vegetarian meals and who loves rolling around in the mud (you know who you are.)

We’re happy to baby-sit your floppy-eared baby while you take the break you deserve(plus a big HUG)! Happy Mother’s Day to all of you from the PetStepin’ Family!

I'm stuck in this perpetual cycle of 'study' and I'm missing out on all the fun stuff."  Dr. Woofinton, a seasoned professional with a flair for fur-related drama, leaned back on his comfy dog bed and raised an eyebrow—err, I mean, an ear.  Dr. Woofinton: "Ah, Simba, my furry friend.

Grooming Seniors - Cat Edition

If you are a cat owner then you know most of the time you see your baby licking himself and cleaning himself. Its true, most cats are cleanliness freak and spend up to 50 percent of their awake time indulging in some form of cat grooming. What we should know is cats licking themselves is actually good for their skin. It maintains healthy skin by stimulating the production of sebum, an oily secretion produced by sebaceous glands at the base of each hair.
