Your pet’s next best buddy

Pet care experience

I am here for you and your fur babies as we move forward from this pandemic. I still offer virtual meet and greets and contactless key exchanges, if preferred. If you do not have a doorman, I highly recommend a key lock box attached to your outside railing for repeat visits. I have received both initial doses of the Pfizer vaccine and remain up to date with boosters. I grew up around both cats and dogs in my immediate and extended family and most of my neighbors. I have had cats as an adult, and lost my two senior boys a few years ago. I recently adopted a sweet kitten, then another, who are now fabulous young cats. I still miss being around dogs and would be happy to care for yours.

Myra is wonderful so we continue to work with her. Our cats love her - even our timid shy little friend sits in her lap! She is communicative, attentive, and detail oriented. Highly highly recommend

Myra was wonderful with my kitties. She has a keen sense of what will make them feel comfortable and how to win them over. I came home to happy healthy little kiddos!

Safety, trust & environment

I understand how it's so important to know that your furry family members are in good hands while you're away. I am good with shy kitties- I speak fluent cat. I can play or cuddle as desired by my feline commander, and understand that once comfortable they may change the amount of attention desired. I have had experience giving meds, sub q fluids and with bottle babies. I am happy to provide updates and photos of our time together.

Availability

I have increased availability during the summer due to my work as a musician and educator during the academic year. I usually only board one dog at a time. I will consider two from returning clients in the right circumstances. I board only well mannered small dogs who are cat friendly. My girls are lucky to have some sweet doggy friends for play, snuggles and grooming. I limit overnights away from my home to shorter visits, usually 4 nights max, so I can take care of my own girls.
