How to Keep Your Pet Safe During COVID-19 in Fort Worth

As people around the nation adopt social distancing and quarantine measures, you may be wondering how to keep your pet safe in this time of uncertainty. With some precautions, you can prepare your family and pets for a safe time ahead.

Your Pet Can’t Get COVID-19

Many pet owners have become concerned about the possibility of their cats and dogs catching coronavirus. The CDC has reported no viable evidence to support this - at this moment, it is not considered possible for companion animals to catch COVID-19 from sick humans. The CDC does suggest that you should quarantine yourself from your pet, just as you would from people, if you happen to become sick.

Stock up on Essentials

If you are practicing social distancing, or a larger quarantine is being enforced in your area, it is important to ensure you have enough supplies for your pet for at least 2 weeks. This includes medicines, food and treats. Do not overbuy or hoard pet supplies; just ensure you have enough for your pet to comfortably survive for 2-3 weeks.

Exercise is Important

You can still practice social distancing while taking your dog for a walk! Remember that exercise is important for your pup, and take him for a walk at least once a day. If quarantine measures are a bit stricter in your area, take your dog for a walk around the backyard or start an exciting game of tug-o-war inside your apartment.

At Home Entertainment

While you’re trying to work remotely or catch up on your favorite Netflix show, your dog or cat may want some of your attention. There are plenty of ways to have fun indoors: bring out all the toys, play hide and seek, send your pet on a treat finding treasure hunt!

Extra Love

Our companion animals are great at picking up on our emotions, and that’s why they always help us feel better when we are down. If you or family members are experiencing fear or anxiety, your pet may mimic these emotions. Check in with your furry friend and make sure to dole out plenty of extra love.

From the entire team at Glass Pet Doors in Fort Worth, we wish you, your family and your companion animals safe and healthy times ahead!

What Our Customers Say

  • Chelsea Christensen
    I had no idea this was even an option! After 12 years of having dogs and a sliding door- I AM SO HAPPY!!!! They came, swapped out my glass with the new pane that had the door and were out. We've had it for a few months now and it has been the best purchase ever. Great quality, looks professional, and does the job! A must for any pet owner. Thank you!
  • Ben Cooksey
    Excellent service and communication. The door insert fit perfectly.
  • Ian Silverberg
    They were great! Professional, responsive, and installed a great tour. Couldn’t ask for more!
  • Pamela Farmer
    I absolutely love my replacement glass with large pet door pre-installed! It is so nice to not have to put in a whole new door. I am also able to preserve the full-glass look to my patio. They were so helpful walking me through the measuring and ordering process, and my husband was able to install the new glass fairly easily. Love, love, love! Happy dog and happy family! Update: We have now had our new pet door for almost 3 years! We did replace the flap last year (a visiting dog chewed on it), but it is doing great! Would still recommend 200%!
  • Heidi Winn
    My husband and I have 2 rowdy beagles, who are frequently in and out of the house. We had a sliding glass door insert but during the cold winter months found that keeping it in and keeping our heating costs down were not compatible. So I started doing some research and found Glass Pet Doors. Trevor was AWESOME to work with! They walked us through measuring our door and installation. We have LOVED our built-in dog door and our reduced cost for heating and cooling. Not to mention the dog door is excellent quality- I never have the rain or snow push through the door. I can’t recommend them enough. If I have a complaint it would only be that they couldn’t ship to us. Luckily we lived close enough to pick it up ourselves, but, with a nationwide online store, perhaps that is changing. Good luck!
  • Brooke Jensen
    One of the best purchases we have ever made! We love our pet door!
  • Mark Evans
    Great product and fast turn around. The dogs love it and no more waking up in the middle of the night to let the dogs out.
  • Ashley Blackham
    Glass Pet Doors was a great company to work with. Many different options available to fit your pets needs. We have had our dog door for over two years with no issues at all!! Thank you!
  • Jeffrey Arnold
    Glass Pet Doors was outstanding to work with! I even made a mistake in my measurements and they exchanged my insert, which was a full length glass insert with imbedded blinds. I just paid the shipping charge and nothing more. I have had the dog door installed for well over a year and it performs great! This company is terrific! I would highly recommend them!
  • Brent Christiansen
    Great guys excellent service!
  • Paul Shumway
    Awesome customer service. When I sold my house, they came and took the window out of my slider and put the glass back because I saved it. Then they came and installed it in my new house. Of course I paid for the services but they were quick and efficient in doing so. The doors are great quality and I would highly recommend them!
  • Scott Johnson
    Very helpful. The product is great. We have been using the door for almost two years and it has held up perfectly. We also appreciate the help that we received for trying to figure out a solution for our older small dog that struggled with the weight of the door.

    I have now used this company on two commercial jobs. Their install crews are wonderful, and their management is honest and fair. These are two qualities that are hard to find in construction.

    Great company, great people! Personal service with a positive attitude. Have used them 3-4 times. Always excellent work. They do more than just pet doors as well. Have used them for a bedroom and 2 front doors. Highly recommended.

    I have used Glass Pet Doors/Utah Pet Access at my West Haven, Layton and St. George homes. Excellent quality, service and communications. I’ve never had an issue with my doggie doors.
  • Anna Whitby
    Our pet door has been in use for several years now and it is still in excellent condition. We previously had a flap-style doggie door but i like this one much better.
  • George Farris
    The dogs love this door ... they bound in and out with ease ... highly recommended ...
  • Robin Mestas
    They are so nice and professional to work with. We have loved our dog doors that they installed. We have used them both at our home and business. We would highly recommend them!
  • Champion Tassainer
    They installed the door over three years ago. I have a large active Doberman that runs in and out of that door at least 50 times a day sometimes at full speed. It still works the same and haven't had any malfunctions at all. One of the best decisions I made for him. It's durable and high quality which is exactly what I paid for. The installers were fast and super friendly.
  • Kira
    I love our dog door from pet access. They installed a sliding door for us with the dog door in it. It is perfect even after two years.
  • Britt Rasely
    We love our doggie door! We have a beautiful dog and beautiful glass doors. Installing a doggie door has made life easier for our family 🐾
  • Ryan Gwilliam
    They have put in several dog doors for me over the years and have always done a great job. Beautiful work and they stand behind it if there is ever an issue.
  • alex imbastari
    There was an issue with a glass cut on the door and the owner was very cooperative and gave a discount for the mishap. Door turned out great. Will use them again.
  • Jeremy's Geatches
    We love this door! Fit perfectly. Company was great w customer service.
  • Nelson Eisman
    I wanted a glass panel with pet access for the patio door that leads out to our backyard. I ordered a door without a glass in the slider and asked the company for the exact measurements of the glass they would have used. Then I sent the measurements to Utah Pet Access. They made the glass and shipped it to the patio door company who installed it. It is perfect. Our dogs let themselves in and out. Even our 15 year old Scottie took to it right away.
