Pet care franchise highlights safety for pets and pet care employees, with training, technology, and free resources for pet parents ahead of busy summer season

In recognition of <a href="https://www.ready.gov/pet-toolkit" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">National Pet Preparedness Month</a>
(Ready.gov) and with the kickoff of summer, <a href="http://www.woofies.com" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Woofie&rsquo;s</a>&reg;, the mobile pet service franchise known for its mobile pet grooming spa, dog walking and pet sitting services, is emphasizing safety for pets and their parents, franchise owners, groomers, walkers, and sitters through enhanced protection and preparedness to help keep pets and their people safe.
Throughout National Pet Preparedness Month, Woofie's is shining a spotlight on proactive pet safety and emergency preparedness, especially as summer vacations and Independence Day celebrations introduce new risks for pets. From the stress of fireworks to the dangers of extreme heat and travel, the season demands extra vigilance. To help families stay ready, Woofie's is offering free resources including a <a href="https://www.woofies.com/about-us/pet-safety-tips-free-emergency-resources/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">downloadable emergency wallet card</a> and <a href="https://www.woofies.com/about-us/pet-safety-tips-free-emergency-resources/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">pet emergency window cling</a> designed to give first responders and others critical information about pets when it matters most. 
Woofie's also encourages pet owners to build a comprehensive emergency plan that includes evacuation routes, emergency contacts, and pet tracking so every furry family member is accounted for in the event of a natural disaster or unexpected emergency.
&ldquo;Safety is foundational to Woofie&rsquo;s,&rdquo; said <a href="https://ownawoofies.com/about/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Woofie&rsquo;s Co-Founder and President, Amy Addington</a><a href="https://ownawoofies.com/about/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">,</a>
&ldquo;Summer is packed with exciting adventures for pets and their people, and pet safety should be planned for while families are traveling or are at home. Our mission at Woofie&rsquo;s is to give pet owners complete confidence that their furry family members are receiving the highest level of care year-round.&rdquo; 
As part of its ongoing investment in pet emergency preparedness and safety, Woofie&rsquo;s recently added <a href="https://pettech.net/members/spartanette23gmail-com/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Angela Verhine,</a> with extensive experience in pet business operations and safety, to its Franchise Business Coach Team. Verhine is <a href="https://pettech.net/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Pet Tech&reg;</a>
certified, with a key aspect of her job focused on training new Woofie&rsquo;s franchise owners on CPR, first aid, and safety considerations, from leading with prevention, to addressing universal threats like heat and choking to teaching franchise owners to assess potential regional dangers. 
&ldquo;Groomers, walkers, and pet sitters are often on the front lines of identifying pet health concerns&mdash;like environmental threats, weather concerns, or behavioral issues&mdash;that pet parents need to be aware of. Prevention is typically the best medicine, which is why Woofie&rsquo;s pet professionals aim to give pet owners and sitters ideas on what to look out for. That level of attentiveness is what makes Woofie&rsquo;s a special organization for franchise owners and families we serve,&rdquo; said Verhine. 
Woofie&rsquo;s comprehensive safety focus includes:
&#9679;Collaboration with <a href="https://fitracking.com/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Fi</a>&nbsp;to offer Woofie&rsquo;s customers discounts on GPS collars that provide AI-powered health and activity monitoring, as well as live tracking, and escape alerts for added peace of mind. 
&#9679;The American Kennel Club&rsquo;s Safety, Assurance, Fundamentals, and Education (AKC S.A.F.E.) Certification across many Woofie&rsquo;s franchise locations and groomers. AKC S.A.F.E. certifies groomers and facilities are committed to elevated standards in pet safety, accident prevention, sanitation, and disaster preparedness, including emergency planning protocols for pets in care during events like hurricanes and tornadoes.
&#9679;24/7 Vet Telehealth Access for pets, while in Woofie&rsquo;s care, throughPet Vet Connection.
&#9679;Real-Time Updates in the Woofie&rsquo;s App, for pet owners to access GPS-tracked walks, journals, photos, service scheduling, and to communicate with dog walkers and pet sitters.
Woofie&rsquo;s also offers franchise owners and pet care providers safe driving and <a href="https://bulliray.com/" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">Bulli Ray</a>
training to support safe animal handling, and performs comprehensive screenings and background checks for team members.
