Pet Care’s Fun But Sprocket LOVES Rafting!

At Home Pet Care or Rafting?

I’ll take rafting but I do love Nickie Z. She’s my pet sitter and  she gives me the best pet care around. Hi, I’m Sprocket and I have a very exciting life. (I’m the passenger in the very front of this raft.) I don’t need pet care that often because my mom Nikki is a river rafting guide for Mariah Wilderness Expeditions . I’m the camp mascot as well as a frequent river rafter myself! I get to go on tons of rafting trips each year and by the time I was three I had already been on more than 30 trips!!!I love them and I always have lots and lots of fun.

TLC with Pet Care at My Own Home

Sometimes my mom is out of town or on vacation and then and only then, I need pet sitting. Dog kennel boarding is NOT for me, even when it is a dog kennel with a run. I like pet care at home best then I get to stay in my own comfy home and be with my friends. When Nickie Z. takes care of me she stays at my house, it’s called pet care at home. I get to be in my own home with someone who loves me and lets me sleep in the bed so I don’t get anxious and stressed when my Mom is gone. I go to the beach, have lots of car rides and walks and get tons of TLC! It’s kind of like having my own vacation, and when Mom gets home I get to tell her all about my adventures!

Here are some more pictures of me and my Mom, Nikki. I’m wearing this donut collar because I have a funny spot on my back leg. It bugs me and if I’m left alone without this on, I lick it and it gets sore. Fortunately for me, I’m usually so busy I don’t have to wear it very much, on the river or in pet care. Big, big smile from me.
