12 Resources to Settle into a New City with Your Pet

 

You’ve decided to relocate to the Golden State with your pet. First of all — congratulations! You’re about to experience life in a perfect climate where plenty of activities and opportunities abound. Now, it’s time to get your pet (and yourself) ready for the move. Realtor Carol Gilles has listed 12 tips and resources to help you settle in.

 

Work With Professionals

Finding professional services in your new area is an excellent place to start.

 

  • Research various veterinarians until you find someone with a flawless reputation.
  • Look for reliable doggy daycare services for when you can’t be with your pet.
  • See if there is a local dog grooming facility you can trust.
  • And if you don’t already have a home in your new city, turn to an experienced realtor like Carol Gilles!

 

Explore Local Businesses

Small businesses play an essential role in any community. Help yourself settle into your new city by exploring the local establishments you can support.

 

  • Find a few dog-friendly restaurants you can frequent. It’s hard to beat delicious dining and quality time with the pup!
  • Read online reviews on the local coffee shops to choose your new spot.
  • Use locator sites to find a nearby dog park to keep your pet active.
  • Learn about the pet stores in the area to determine where you’ll purchase your pet’s essentials.

 

Get What You Need

Speaking of essentials, be sure to invest in your pet’s health and well-being.

 

  • Consult the right sites for pet care advice on products. You can even read veterinarian reviews before buying anything!
  • Invest in new gear and supplies to keep your four-legged friend safe and comfortable on the beach.
  • Compare California pet insurance providers and policies to find a plan that meets your needs and fits your budget.
  • Consider purchasing a wireless fence, installing a physical barrier around your property, or taking any other steps to keep your pet safe.

 

Moving to California provides an excellent opportunity to build a new life with your pet. Just make sure you do your homework and prepare thoroughly for your relocation. The tips and resources above will help you learn about your new area and establish yourself in the community. But keep researching this beautiful state and connecting with local resources.
