Help Support Local HBT Dog Walkers - Covid-19
Donation protected
Happy Bark & Tails has been happily servings the community for 5 years now! Going on 6 years this May 2020. We have been walking dogs in the sunniest of day, rainiest of day and even in those ugly snow stormy days where you look out the window and just want to jump back into bed to your warm sheets.
Ever since starting this business the main goal was and is to provide the best service we could possibly provide and until this day that’s exactly what we have done. We have been consistent, loyal and trustworthy. We have been HERE serving in all different circumstances such as; super last minutes request, vacations, vacation extensions, weddings, funerals— and the answer has always been YES! We would love to help even if that meant cancelling our personal plans to be able to help out our clients.
Today we are asking you for help— if you can.
There are certain things you just can’t predict. The COVID-19 is one of those things.
The HBT team relies on providing a service in order to be paid, without THAT we do not have any income. We unfortunately do not get paid to work from home, we are still outside providing whichever walks we are still able to safely conduct... As of this week, our M-F daily walks have decreased by almost 75% and have been cancelled on an indefinite timeline; however, our usual expenses –
rent/mortgage, car insurance, health insurance, food, etc.) are still due.
We work as Sole Proprietor/LLC therefore we are not eligible for unemployment benefits.
We don't have a guaranteed timeline as of when everyday life and business will resume back to normal. Every day brings more and more financial instability and job uncertainty. Once this pandemic has passed, we will not be able to return to business as usual and more importantly, caring for the animals we love, if we don't receive additional support.
Unfortunately, we are not the only business experiencing this and my heart is with our fellow business owner who have poured their heart and soul into growing their companies.
We appreciate you and all you have done to support Happy Bark & Tails.
Thank you,
-The Happy Bark & Tails Team
