Pet Sitting, Dog Walking, Scottsdale, AZ

Don’t mess up your bath tub. Have fun.
Have a bonding experience at Kosmo’s Dog house.

Kosmo's Dog House

Many of you have already virtually met Bella’s new office manager – Rocco the Rockstar.  Well even Rockstars get a little dirty sometimes and he threw a little attitude yesterday and told me “ I don’t want the bathtub mom. Take me somewhere to get cleaned. But I want YOU to do it.”  “Ok” I said. I knew just the place. Having a professional pet sitting company in Scottsdale and Fountain Hills, I sorta know my way around the pet world I only go to the best places, and Kat at Kosmo’s truly is. I am glad to call her a real friend. Off to Kosmo’s Dog House we went!

When we arrived to Kosmo’s we were greeted by THEIR office manager, Morey. The two “office managers” conversed while Chase set up a tub for Rocco and I. We entered our area through our own little white picket fence and started to go to town. (See a pic of Bella with Kat and Morey here)

For me, I got to wear a plastic apron, so this time I wasn’t going to end up getting a bath with Rocco like I usually do at home. Chase provided me with towels, brushes, shampoo, and then extra special kind for the face (don’t have that at home!), and showed me how to hook Rocco up so he didn’t go running everywhere.

Once Rocco made his adjustment, he did really well. The hose that I was able to use to spray him down was much more successful than the plastic cup I use with tub water at home, and the ability to have the tub at a higher level at Kosmo’s, rather than leaning over into my bathtub at home was also a nice change. I was able to suds Rocco up and give him a long massage and he really enjoyed it. Great bonding time

When it came time for the blow dry … (I didn’t even know this was an option) Chase instructed me to put the cotton balls in Rocco’s ears so the loud air sound didn’t scare him. Surprisingly after a few minute he was okay with it as well and we both enjoyed giving and getting his massage.

I also handed Rocco off to the girls in the back who do the full service grooming if you don’t want to choose washing your dog as a bonding experience lol… They clipped his nails. I leave that to the professionals. He yelps like I am cutting off his paw. I was very thankful to have it taken care of.

Afterward, I stuck around to chat some with Kat the owner. We did another story on her when it opened and you can read all about her here. While we chatted, Morey and Rocco ran around the store playing with all the “demonstration” toys. Morey is a great sales man.

So after all that fun and only $23 later, Rocco and I were happy and CLEAN. Both of us. I had no mess to clean up and he is soooo much softer than the doggie shampoo I have at home.

You should defiantly make it a point to go on in and give your dog a wash. They are beyond affordable and it is a great experience. Maybe have a dog wash party next time you want to do something fun with your friends? I am sure Kat would let you have a small “happy hour” there too! *wink*
