2009 PhilaPets Client Calendar Competition!

Congratulations go out to Taylor! She is this year's cover model for the 2009 PhilaPets.com Client Calendar!

We had our biggest competition ever this year with more then 200 pets' pictures submitted. After much debate, we chose our favorite twelve models to be included in the calendar.

Thanks to everyone that submitted a picture of their pet. We will work on getting all pictures added to the client gallery page in the next few weeks.

All winners have received a credit to their PhilaPets account for three free visits and Taylor will receive five free visits. Congratulations to all the winners!

Everyone that used our services over the last year should have received a copy in the mail. If you did not receive yours or would like additional copies, please send an email to calendar@philapets.com.

Thanks, also, to all of our sponsors who help make the client calendar possible each year. Please see our sponsors page for more information and links to their Web sites. Thank you!

Payment Policy Changes

Due to safety and logistical reasons, we will no longer be accepting cash as a method of payment.

We do still accept checks but our preferred method of paying is via credit card. You can pay your balance online by logging into our Web site.

Alternatively, several of our pet parents use our AutoPay service in which we bill your credit card on the 15th and last day of each month for services rendered. To sign up for AutoPay, simply fill out, print, and send this form to:

PhilaPets.com, LLC
PO Box 3867
Philadelphia, PA 19146

This way, you'll never have to remember to pay again!
