Bur-dee here. Well, not in the picture...I wish I was at the beach with the crazy weather we have been having here.  It's hot, then it's cold...sounds like Katy Perry is doing the weather. The cold weather disappeared this weekend only to reappear again last night...the weather channel has 70 degrees while also broadcasting a winter weather advisory. 

In the next couple of weeks, thousands of schools will begin spring break and thousands of families will go on trips to warmer climates. They will pack bathing suits and sunscreen and dream of faraway places and beach drinks. Some may take their pets, but what if your pets are not welcome? When making plans for them, a professional pet sitting service like Kamp Ham comes in handy. 

Some pups may like overnight stays in new places and making new friends. Kennels are expensive and don't cater to your pet's needs. They live in pens and many of the incidentals cost extra. Smaller in-our-home pet sitting services like Kamp Ham limit the number of guests we sit, so that your dog gets more attention. This is great for pups with special needs or seniors. Plus they are allowed to roam freely just like at home unless you prefer other arrangements.  Unlike commercial kennels and boarding facilities, Kamp Ham does not charge extra for medication, snacks or extra playtime so you get more for your money. 

Maybe you have kitties.  While we don't allow kitty kampers , Kamp Ham offers our Frisky Business cat sitting service. We will come to your house and make sure your kitties are fed, safe and loved on. We will scoop and change litter as you instruct, and offer playtime in the package. Critter Sittin' offers the same services to your pocket pets, fish and birds. 

We also include our Neighborhood Watch service in the Frisky Business and Critter Sittin' packages, We will check mail, water plants, put out your trash and recycling (and return them), check locks and gates and other tasks to make your home look lived in while you are gone.  Neighborhood Watch is also available to homes without pets. 

Kamp Ham Pet Sitting is bonded and insured for your peace of mind. So before you jet, think of your pet. Book with Kamp Ham today!

Kamp Ham Pet Sitting opens in Tomball
Where your pets stay, just like home; serving Tomball, The Woodlands, Cypress, Spring and surrounding areas.

PRLog - Feb. 19, 2015 - TOMBALL, Texas -- Kamp Ham Pet Sitting recently opened its doors to the north Houston area, offering professional pet sitting services to Tomball and the surrounding areas.

Owner Paula Ham knows the business; she brings over 30 years’ experience with her. Much of this time was devoted to raising, training and showing multiple breeds. Today, she specializes in Pugs. “I have had three Top 20 Performance Pugs in my family. My Wilson was Top 5 Rally or Obedience for 9 of his 11.5 years,” she says.

Kamp Ham is different from the usual pet sitter, who may come to your home and let your dogs out.  Ham offers this service, but also offers Day Kamp and Sleepover Kamp on site for small dogs where they play and interact as though they are at home. "Many dogs don't react well to kennel life. Living like they are in their own home helps ease the stress," says Ham. "That is why my motto is 'where your pets stay, just like home'."

Kamp Ham Pet Sitting specializes in the care for young, elderly and special needs animals. The fees are also all inclusive; you will not pay extra for snacks, updates (video or text) and medications.

In addition to Day Kamp and Sleepover Kamp, Kamp Ham Pet Sitting features services like its “Spaw to Go” where “we bring bath time to you. You supply the tub and we supply the scrub,” said Ham.

Other services include Lunch Breaks (midday dog playtime/potty breaks), Frisky Business (cat sitting in your home), Neighborhood Watch (house checks with no pets), and other pet sitting in your home (birds, fish, reptiles, small animals, and even horses -sorry, no spiders, rats or snakes please.) The Kamp Bus pet limo service can pick up and drop off your pets for a nominal fee.

Kamp Ham Pet Sitting is bonded and insured, trained in pet first aid/CPR and is a member of Pet Sitters International (PSI), the world’s leading educational association for professional pet sitters. Book with confidence that your furbaby will be taken care of. "I love our happy kampers," says Ham.

About Kamp Ham Pet Sitting: Kamp Ham Pet Sitting services include day and sleepover kamp, pet sitting in your home, lunchtime let-outs, pet limo service, Spaw Day (bath and nails on premises) and “Spaw to Go” service in your home. Kamp Ham also does housesitting visits for non-pet owners. Kamp Ham Pet Sitting is bonded and insured and is a member of Pet Sitters International (PSI) the world’s leading educational association for professional pet sitters.

Bur-dee's Brain Spillage

2/10/2015

Bur-dee here. As Kamp Ham social director, life can move pretty fast. I have had an action packed few days, so I will do a brain spill.

This weekend was a busy one. We kicked it off with a "Where's Wilson" contest...mom gave discounts to anyone who was able to find Wilson, our Kamp Bus. Follow us on Facebook to learn where Wilson will be next. You may be a winner.

We also spent a day at Doggy in Wonderland, who graciously hosts the North Houston Pug Meetup on the first Saturday of the month. Mom gave paw-dicures to those who sat still long enough. Do you need a spaw day? We (well, Mom) can come to your home and pamper you like you deserve.

Finally, I want to end this blog entry by congratulating my daddy, Rufus, on his retirement. He is the very definition of champion and I am proud of him. Many think we look alike...you be the judge.
My aim is to follow in his pawprints and, as you can see from his list of achievements, he has some mighty big ones to fill. I do aim to make him as proud of me as I am of him. Till next time....Bur-dee out.

XOXO,
Bur-dee
