Pet Places

How much do you love your animals? Enough to give them a whole area to themselves? What if we told you that’s not as crazy as it might seem? Here are five tips for giving your pets a place all their own.

1. CHOOSE A SPACE

Bigger isn’t always better when finding an area for your four-legged friends. Comfortable, cozy, enclosed spaces can be beneficial to your furry companions. Got any extra bedrooms, laundry rooms, large closets, or even just a corner of the basement? Perfect.

2. MAKE IT PET PROOF

Make sure you’re hiding anything hazardous to the pet, or anything you don’t want your pet destroying. Cleaning supplies, shoes, clothes, kids’ toys all need to be stored out of paws’ reach. And make sure that you set the thermostat for a safe temperature if you’re leaving the home.

3. ANIMAL AMBIENCE

Is there anything sadder to think about then little Fido at home all alone in total silence? Pamper your pet by leaving a radio or TV on during the day when you’re out of the home. Your pets might not understand Game of Thrones, but then again, we can barely remember all the characters ourselves.

4. A SPOT TO SNOOZE

Both dogs and cats spend over half the day sleeping, so make sure your pet place has a nice place to nod off. Much like investing in a good office chair, or a comfortable pair of shoes, a really nice pet bed will keep your pet partners healthy and spry. It’s not their fault they’re instinctively lazy.

5. SOMETHING TO DO

Much like teenagers, when they aren’t sleeping, they’re looking for something to do. And if that outlet isn’t provided, they’re going to get into trouble. Even the most aloof of cats can’t turn down a toy mouse. And we’ve never met a dog who’s met a chew toy they didn’t like.

And remember that giving your pet their own place isn’t a replacement for good ole tender loving care.

Look here for homes perfect for pets, and even better for humans.

 

  • When we rightsized from our home of 43 years to a Bielinski Condo in Bay Pointe, our New Home Consultant answered all of our questions and communicated with us the entire way. We’re fully enjoying our beautiful new home and the condo community.

  • I’ve been so impressed and completely satisfied with the entire Bielinski building experience. From the initial sale and throughout the construction process I have appreciated Bielinski’s professionalism, craftsmanship, and follow-through.

  • We are extremely happy with our new Bielinski Condo. It’s well-built and full of all the features we wanted in our home.
    Deborah and Brian Blackney
  • We chose Bielinski because they are a family-owned business and have been building in the Pewaukee area for a long time. The Clemont floor plan is just perfect for all of our family events and Packer parties.
    Bob and Darla Landgren
  • We couldn’t be happier with our new home! The entire process was fantastic. Everyone was so responsive and quick to help. Bielinski’s knowledge of the industry was invaluable. We recommend Bielinski to anyone looking for their next home.
    Mike and Kristin Smith
  • We had a really good experience with Bielinski from start to finish. Everyone was responsive and reliable. Now we are enjoying life in our new home.
    Peter Holzwart and Therese Gaynor-Holzwart
  • Once I got settled in, I knew I was exactly where I belong. Without Bielinski’s knowledge and communication, I would still be questioning whether I should build at all. Thanks to the entire team that made this all possible.
