Dog and Puppy Sitting with
Patience, Care, and Compassion

Mission Statement

To provide outstanding care and service for you and your pet when you cannot be there. Whether you are at work or out of town, your pet will be cared for in the exact manner that you request.

We may not be you, but we can be the next best thing for your pet.

Three signs that you dog is overweight:

• Does your dog get stuck in his doggie door?
• Does your dog get "tight around the collar" and not just after a big meal?
• When you throw a ball to your dog , does he roll over and play DEAD?

Sweet Retreat can help slim down your pet with exercise and diet conditioning. Being overweight is your dogs' worst health concern. Obesity will shorten the life of your beloved companion and make the years very difficult for them.

Extra pounds place an excess burden on bones and joints and can make arthritis problems worse. Overweight dogs are less able to exercise and play comfortably and their breathing may be labored. Their bodies may be less able to resist infections, and they may be at greater risk for problems during surgery and anesthesia.

You may ask "How did my dog get overweight?"

Dogs most always become overweight from lack of good exercise and from eating more food than they require. Food calories, which aren’t burned during their daily activities, are stored as fat.

Occasionally, metabolic disorders can cause a dog to become overweight. But overfeeding and under exercising are much more common causes of excess weight. If your veterinarian suspects that a metabolic disorder is causing your dog to gain weight, he or she will test for that disorder and treat it accordingly.

How to help your dog lose the weight

Weight loss for most dogs involves increased exercise and eating food with fewer calories. It’s generally easier to feed normal amounts of a low-calorie dog food than to feed much smaller amounts of his/her regular dog food. In addition, your dog will not feel as hungry when fed a normal amount of food.

Regular exercise, such as walks or runs, is good for most dogs because it increases the number of calories they burn. If your dog is old or in poor health, check with your vet before increasing exercise.

Sweet Retreat is here to help

Our services include making sure your dog gets regular exercise and fed the right amount of food.
