It's with great pleasure that we announced our recipient for this year's KSR Pet Care donation in honor of Professional Pet Sitters Week yesterday. Last year we donated $800.00 to Friends of Homeless Animals (FOHA) with KSR Pet Care. The FOHA volunteers were overjoyed and we had a great day at their facility in Aldie, VA. We hope to do as well this year for...Pets with Disabilities, a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting the adoption of dogs and cats with disabilities. The organization serves as a shelter and an adoption placement aid for animals that have been injured through trauma or disabled by illness. Joyce Darrell, along with her husband Michael Dickerson, founded the Pets with Disabilities organization in 2000. Their lives were changed forever after their rescue dog Duke broke his back playing as a puppy.
How it works to collect the money for the donation, is we take 10% of the proceeds we made from March 1-15. I admit it is always a bit scary too...You never know how well business will go in March but it's also hard to predict the rest of the year and as a business we are first of all responsible for our expenses and our invaluable dog walkers' and pet sitters' pay checks. So usually I hold back on my own pay checks for a couple of months just to make sure the cash flow is going okay ;-) It's a sacrifice I am willing to make for a great cause like an annual donation to an local animal organization.
Fingers crossed and thanks to all for your support! Check out our posts on our KSR Pet Care Facebook page and like like like please!
It's great to hear that you have a foundation for the Homeless animals. I am great pet lover and I had donated lot of money for some professional pet sitters . They had done their job very neatly and they care the animals than any thing. I am so happy these kind of people are still alive in this dark world. All the best...
