Meet Poco. This handsome donkey is the adorable mascot for the pet care company PETZcheckIN. Poco is wearing a one of a kind Rhinestone Halter, designed by Furry Fashionista.

PETZcheckIN offers pet owners peace of mind when they go out of town, by reminding pet sitters to check in on pets while their owners are gone. PETZcheckIN will also send a back up sitter if something should happen and the sitter doesn’t “check in”. For more info, visit PETZcheckIN.com.

A special thanks to Dr. Lisa Herickhoff, co-founder of PETZcheckIN, for sending us these great photos of Poco modeling his Furry Fashionista original!

We fill the gap in home pet care. Now you can give your pets the secure, stress free environment of home that your pets deserve and you get confidence from knowing your animal care provider, dog walker or pet sitter arrived.
