Pet Sitter


Willy and Happy are two of the minature poodles who i pet sit when their owners ,Mr & Mrs Tan goes on their holidays . We do their grooming to on a regular basis.
*********************************************************
Pet Sitter …another service that Jesswinn can provide besides dog grooming !
Why choose a reliable pet sitter to care for my pets ?
• Most pets, especially cats and dogs, like routine. Using the services of a pet sitter will enable your pets to keep their normal eating, playtime, exercise, and sleep routines.
• When your pet stays in his own home, he won't be stressed from being transported to a strange place. • Your pet will be able to stay in his own home where he is most comfortable, with the sights, sounds, and smells to which he is accustomed.
• If your pet is on medication, or other medical treatment, your pet sitter will be able to keep him on his regular schedule.
• Your pet will not be exposed to illnesses that may be contracted at a kennel.
• Having a pet sitter come to your home also works as a crime deterrent. Most pet sitters will bring in the mail, turn lights off/on, open/close draperies, etc. to help give your home a lived in look. And, in the event of an emergency, they will be able to contact you immediately rather than you coming home to find a problem with your home.
You won't have to inconvenience family or friends. While they may mean well, and intend to give excellent care, sometimes they may fall short of your expectations. When you hire a pet sitter, it creates a businesses relationship with clear expectations for you and your pet sitter.
• Your pet will get consistent and personalized care from one person who knows your pet well. Most pet sitters will become quite fond of your pets and will give them excellent care!
• It's more convenient for you. You won't have to carve time out of your busy schedule to drop off or pick up your pet from a kennel.
Your pet will be home, waiting at the door to greet you when you come home!

Note :
While pet sitting is by far the best choice for the majority of pets, it may not be ideal for some. Pets with separation anxiety, other behavioral issues, or pets with delicate medical conditions may do better in a kennel or veterinary boarding facility. If you have concerns, be sure to talk to your pet sitter or veterinarian, who will be able to help you determine the best option for your pet.

Shells......its from the beach in Penang !.....



A lot have been said about the many shells in my house and garden . "NO ! I do not believe that you pick them from the beach" ."Where got such nice shells in Penang wan... !!" Where did you buy them ?? "Ai yah...tell lah, I want to buy also!"

Ya,believe it or not its free for the picking by the seaside where i live which is about five minutes walk . I have lots , big/ small and colorful .....YES I picked up them during my morning walks to the beach for some fresh air, exercise and to watch the rising sun , sounds of the waves , sea breeze be near nature .....Fantastic ...really like killing a few birds with one stone !

Well....what i do is that I soak them with water for a day or two , wash them with a soft steel brush to get rid of the stains and dirt , let them dry in the sun after that spray them with quick dry lacquer twice ,make sure the first coat is dry first before you spray another coat ...then they look shiny and nice . I use these shells to lace the side walls of my garden and use some as decoration in pots and for the "garden in a pot" that I create for myself or gifts for friends .I have some big shells which are cracked and have holes in them so i use them as little pots to plant my ferns! Lovely and love them !!I use the nicer ones as table top decoration, just use a bowl or small plate, lace it with colorful paper and arrange them accordingly .....and you have a center piece!

Nothings beats doing something creative to beautify your home & garden and its practically free ,something that you do not have to buy from the shops and its uniquely yours !! Try it .....

dear friends ....I wish you enough


I wish you enough .
"I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright.
I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more
I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive.
I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life
appear much bigger.
I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting.
I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess.
I wish you enough 'Hello's' to get you through the final 'Good-bye'."
