Our “Cape Cod Pets” of the Month for February 2009 are Rocky and Rosie Rosbach. This mis-matched pair of pooches love to do everything together, so a kennel was out of the question for the family. They considered having a friend care for, feed and walk their Cape Cod pets. A major concern was finding someone reliable who could meet the unique exercise needs of these two. After thinking it over they considered a pet sitting service that included a high demanding fitness and exercise program – K9 Cardio.
Rocky and Rosie’s owners left Cape Cod behind for the warm beaches in Hawaii during February vacation, feeling happy and comfortable with the decision to leave their two dogs under the care of CapeK9Cardio – a Bonded & Insured Pet Sitting and Dog Walking company that handles walks and runs! Each day with these Cape Cod pets was a new adventure. Rocky – a one year old male Boxer and his crate-mate Rosie, a three year old female Pug. Rocky’s high energy level required daily exercise and runs with CapeK9Cardio. Our Pet Taxi service would transport Rocky to a nice path, so his high energy could be burned off. This made Rosie happy too.
To say that these dogs really enjoy their feeding ritual would be an understatement! Like a pair of wet vacs, these dogs worked in tandem to eliminate every last morsel of food. It was a contest to see who could eat faster.
Rocky is tall and goofy and Rosie is short and has a loud distinguishing snort. Rocky loves to play frisbee and Rosie will do just about anything for a treat! Two very different looking dogs with very contrasting traits and personalities. It’s amazing to watch the special bond that these two Cape Cod pets have. Rocky and Rosie not only get along great, but they love the companionship that they provide one another! We can’t wait to see this special pair again!

Daily dog exercise is very important, it helps dogs stay mentally and physically healthy. Did you know that dogs have perfect bio-mechanics for running? They were designed to run in the wild. Well, we have domesticated these animals quite a bit to remove the “wild” part, but let’s face it – dogs are happy when [...]
Daily dog exercise is very important, it helps dogs stay mentally and physically healthy. Did you know that dogs have perfect bio-mechanics for running? They were designed to run in the wild. Well, we have domesticated these animals quite a bit to remove the “wild” part, but let’s face it – dogs are happy when they run! This type of exercise also allows them to do what they were wired to do – explore the outdoors. The benefits of dog walking and running are immeasurable. When a dog exercises, their heart rate reaches an elevated level. If the dog sustains a higher heart rate for more than 10 minutes, they are achieving a higher fitness level. This in turn results in a healthier, longer living pet. Leash laws prevent your dogs from getting the exercise they deserve, and not all of us have the time or ability to provide that for our pets. Cape K9 Cardio can provide this needed routine for your pet. CapeK9Cardio is committed to helping you develop a customized running or walking plan that will suit your needs. Each exercise session includes a warm-up and cool-down period. CapeK9Cardio and our staff of pet sitters and dog walkers will always keep your dog on a leash during an exercise sessions (this gives us control when running or walking). We will wear reflective material if exercising at night. When your dog returns to you tired and happy, make sure you check your dog’s paws for the presence of burrs, grass, thorns, rocks or ice and snow after each run or walk.
