About
I come to your home and care for your furry family member. I treat and care for, your kitty or pup, as if they were my own. I have 18 years professional experience, and 30 years of experience with a local feline rescue organization, from which I have learned a wealth of information, skill, and behavioral experience . I am skilled with giving medicine, fluids, etc. I love the shy, scared cats and dogs as well as the friendly ones. I have excellent references, and my clients love me and my personal attention to their fur babies! My motto is "when you care like I do". Because I really do. Animals are my passion, and the most important thing to me, is keeping them safe, well, and happy. I also take great care of your home: Bringing mail and papers in, watering plants, lights off and on, and I'm very security conscious. It is a top priority for me. I enjoy everything, with your 4 legged family members. I love spending time with them and letting them know they are not alone. I love making their lives a little easier and less lonely when their parents are away and love winning their hearts, like they always win mine. I spend as much time as needed to make them feel comfortable and safe, with lots of talking to, petting, combing, playing, catnip, chasing balls, whatever their favorite is. I also think it's important to leave your fur family member in your own home, while you're away, instead of boarding them at a kennel or vet's office, which can be very stressful for them, along with a risk of contracting viruses. My personal attention to your kitties and dogs is what my clients love about me. I treat them as if they were my own; along with the fun, companionship, and bonding comes the responsibility and weight of keeping them healthy and as stress free as possible. Every cat and dog is different and I try my best to pick up on their personalities and needs as quickly as possible. And then just let them tell me what they want. 😸🐶

Patte’s experience with critters of all kinds impressed me, because I have a dog fearful of new people. She first came to our house to determine if she was a match before committing to taking on my two dogs as clients. That REALLY impressed me. Our dogs were well cared for and her txt photos and updates made me feel at ease. She is compassionate, but not a pushover and clearly loves her work. Her fee was reasonable.

Patte took excellent care of my elderly cat. My cat, who is usually skittish with those she doesn't know, actually came to Patte and allowed Patte to pet her.

Patte was great. She was in communication while we were away, even sending pictures of our fur baby. She’s very detailed and thorough. I would definitely recommend her to watch your pets.
