Max

Max is quite concerned Santa won't be able to arrive through all this windy rain.

Red, Gracie & Maya

What better way to spend a cold and frosty morning than to snuggle up with your sisters?

Hudson

No matter how long our walks are, Hudson rarely pauses the rapid wagging of his cute little stub tail.  If we could somehow harness that energy, I bet we could generate enough to light up an entire city block...

The top 5 reasons I love my petsitter - by Desi

1. She's sloppy!
 She frequently drops delicious tidbits in my vicinity.

2. She's lazy!
She often has to enlist my aid when it's time to clean the dishes.

3. She's forgetful!
She sometimes forgets that we just went for a walk and we'll head out the door again.

4. She's stupid!
She often doesn't realize that I am happily chewing on her wallet or shoes in my secret under the couch hideaway.

5. She loves me!
Although she's always laughing at my adorable antics, she truly sees me for the noble, intelligent being that I am - and I love her for that.

Phoebe

My good friend Phoebe is quite the little cannonball. She loves to shoot herself down the stairs,  through the dog door, and then back again to sit with fierce intention by her treat jar, until I get the message. This is followed by a nice long cozy snuggle on the couch, and then her inner cannonball begins to roll once again.

Cleo

After partaking of a bowl of kibble with kibble on the side and a little kibble thrown on top, Girlfriend enjoys a leisurely nibble at the garden salad bar.

Misty

 Misty is enjoying a restful moment after a 10 minute wild run - leap over furniture - fly through the air - mad dash scramble through the house.

Riley

Riley loves to play hide and seek, but with who? I think it may be possible fairies are frequenting the house...

Fly by Night

Max loves to take the car out for a spin at night but he'll never tell me where he's been...

The Neverending Story

As told by Zack

Muffy

After a healthy breakfast,  a very satisfied Muffy enjoys splaying herself over the radiant tiles for a nice long snooze.

Mercie

Mercie and I rambled over to Dynamo Donuts this morning for a latte and a dog donut. I wouldn't have thought it possible but her smile seems even sweeter than usual. And the best part? Paid for with a five dollar bill found en route. We both think it's going to be a very good day!

Max

Max's idea of heaven is a leisurely afternoon nap when he can have the entire bed to himself.

Bruno & Coyote

This is a nice sunny spot to sit and watch the dogs wolf down their breakfast. Appalling yet fascinating!

Zack

It's no secret why Zack is such a popular guy - he's just so much fun!

Riley & Finnegan

The boys love to sift through my calendar to see how often their names appear.

Finn

So proud, so strong, so smart! No wonder his family is so enamored of him!

Onni

I'm not sure, but I think Onni can speak Ant.

Barney

Barney's guilty pleasure is spying on his neighbors.

Live from Fog City

It's so cold in Pacifica this week, but I don't care because I get to curl up in a comfy chair with a hot cup of tea, and be endlessly entertained by the very handsome Tiny Boots performing his famous feather dance.

Aaaaah!

After a couple of blistering hot days in Marin, the joys of this overcast morning are profound. It's a good thing I had something to read with me on our walk, because Buddy found a pretty spot at the park and settled in for a nice, long visit.

Gracie & Red

Did somebody say dinner?

Jinx

Part catahoula and part frog, Jinx is every bit as much fun as she looks!

Coyote

Coyote had heard that an amazing treasure trove existed somewhere in the house but she thought it was an urban myth.

Poe

No one can chill like Poe can chill!

Muffy

When the term glamour - puss came about , they surely had Muffy in mind.

Chloe

No matter what is going on in the world, Chloe always has her smile ready and waiting to dazzle.

CSI:NY

Finegan is riveted by this show, but sensitive Riley prefers to hide under the bed until it's over.

Max

One of Max's favorite activities is to read the morning newspaper over my shoulder.

Farewell My Lovelies 2011

Rest in peace my friends
