Everyone at Sniffles and Friends Professional Pet Sitting and Dog Walking
Service wishes you and your pets a very Merry Christmas and Happy
Holidays!!!

Sniffles and Friends is very proud to celebrate another anniversary of
serving the City of Philadelphia, and we look forward to bringing you the
very best pet services in the new year.


















When making your New Year’s resolutions this year, don’t forget to make
them for your pet as well!  Here are some goals for 2009.

1.        Weight Control: a pet that is overweight has an increased chance of
developing things like arthritis and diabetes. Monitor your pet’s weight
with your vet and watch those treats!
2.        Dental Cleaning: Bacteria from teeth and gums can enter the blood
stream and cause damage to internal organs. Talk to your vet and schedule
a cleaning if necessary.
3.        Heartworm/Flea Prevention: Creepy critters can lead to severe
health problems. Talk to your vet before starting any medication.
4.        Microchip/ID Tags: Microchips are registered with your info and can
ID your pet if they become lost even without a collar. Many vets offer this
service. Ask today!
5.        Quality Time: Snuggles, kisses, fetch…whatever it is – do more!  
When you can’t be there, Sniffles and Friends is here to make sure your
loved ones are well taken care of.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
