About Us...

My photo
Get Away Petsitters was formed in 2002 by Trish and Tim Belue to help other pet owners get away without the guilt and worry of leaving their pets at home. Also it is our way of getting our “fix” without adopting anymore pets. Our pack includes two dogs, Jack and Forest, two cats, Spice and Moey, and one “catdog”, our latest rescue, Miller. Get Away Petsitters provides professional pet sitting services in areas of Hoover, Pelham and Helena.

Dog Gone It!

Today while at work I saw two black & whites come through the parking lot. I vowed I would not get involved; but I did. I ran out and found the two - dogs. Both dogs had collars on but no tags. What is wrong with pet owners that put collars on their pets but no identification???? I picked these two up and gave them lots of dog bones and cat treats - all I had in the car. I called Hoover Animal Control and the officers told me they had been trying to catch these two all morning on the interstate! I got lucky and caught them in Southlake. These two are now at the Vestavia Animal Clinic being checked out. I assume they ran away during the storm the past weekend. Both are sweet and love each other very much. I am so glad they stayed together. I can only hope that someone would do the same for mine.

Budman


We visited with Bud while David was away taking a break. After a long walk, Bud sat down and enjoyed his bone. - DO NOT try and take a bone away from Bud.

Jake


Here's a new client - Jake. He is ten years old and a wonderful dog. We kept him recently while his family had to go to Miami. Jake loves to play ball as you can tell, he likes to paly keep away too.

Here's Teddy

This is Teddy Bush. He has been our friend for many years but we don't see much of him because he likes to hang out in the closet. But since the birth of his 3 new siblings, I think he is more curious about what is going on outside of Closetville. He is so sweet and pretty too. Glad you came out to play this trip Ted.

Bridget brought Eddie over to play...


Yeah, right...

We were making our rounds this morning and when we got home, guess who we found in our bed? Eddie! Ed is like most of the rest of us, when its raining outside, don't we all just want to go back to bed?
I was once told that in Eddie's former life he was a country dog - I say Eddie is more like a country club dog!

Sonny Bunny - Happy Easter!

This picture doesn't do Sonny justice; but then again it does. He like Temptations cat treats ALOT! This photo was taken after he made a meal of Temptations.

Look at him licking his chops.

It's been a while since we have seen Sonny and his other pack members because last year three babies (triplets, Aly, Seph and Tommy) moved in to his place. It really warmed our hearts to see how the cats remembered us and came right out to welcome us back. I will post pictures of Porter, Suki and Teddy later in the week as we continue to visit these cats.

Budman

We are spending Easter with Bud while David is off visiting one our of our favorite towns - Seaside. While David is eating seafood, we will be hiding bones around the house for Bud to find on Easter morning! He doesn't have much of a nose but he can find anything that is edible.

Meet Our New Clients...


Recently we saw a van on the road that advertised Angelia's Happy Hounds then saw an advertisment for this company too in the Valupak envelop. Turns out Angelia is a mobile groomer and you can tell when you meet her pack. Baylee (missing from photos) and Jennie (both are standard poodles), then there is George that is a Schnoodle, and last but not least Boris the Bichon Fiese and so funny to watch run.
