| Bloomington Pet Pals We Play While You're Away |
About Us
Bloomington Pet Pals was founded in 2005. It is owned and operated
by Diane Stuercke and Ann Wesley. Both are long-time pet owners
who love their dogs and cats as if they are our children.
The importance of home pet care became obvious to us on the
occasions when we were out of town and couldn't take our babies
with us. When friends could babysit, the animals suffered no ill
effects. But sometimes friends are busy or it felt like an imposition to
kennels, but each time we left them at one, we saw the trauma they
experienced being in a strange place. They cried and had to be
dragged away from us. One dog was afraid of the others barking at
her. Another suffered separation anxiety in a kennel.
Though they received good care, a concrete floor didn't compare to
their own beds, food and comfort of home. Their boarding reports
indicated they frequently didn't eat the first day. Mixing with other
dogs always brought the possibility of fleas or fights.
Finally we realized that many families experience the same situation
we did, and we realized how great the need is for a safe, loving
service for pets when owners are away from home. We structure our
business to provide you with the type of service we would want for
our own animals. Since starting, we've begun working with several
veterinarians and animal authorities to learn all we can about pet
behavior, training basics, recognizing potential health risks and
current issues in pet care
Bloomington Pet Pals has grown steadily since we first opened and in
late summer of 2009 we added limited overnight care to our services.

Ann with Toby
In 2010, for our 5th anniversary, we made a commitment to be more involved in public
services that benefit animals. We've volunteered at vaccine and microchip clinics and were
called on to help with the rescue of 70 dogs from a mobile home living with an animal
hoarder in Bloomfield. In 2010 we also became significant sponsors of the Monroe County
Humane Association's Walk for the Animals benefit, donating, among other things, a
percentage of our full September revenue.
