Full time cat dad!

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Richard and I am a cat lover. From my early childhood, I have always taken care of cats. They have always been a big part of my life and each one was a beloved member of the family. I am meticulous when it comes to their care and double, triple, and sometimes quadruple check them and their surrounds to ensure they are safe and happy. If you are looking for someone who is trustworthy, and will take care of your pet and respect your home, you have come to the right person! I have several 4-wheel drive vehicles which means I can reach your cat in even the most inclement weather. Rain, snow, or sleet I will be there!

Richard has been caring for cats since was a child and has always had a special place for them in his heart. He is kind, caring and meticulous when ensuring cats are safe and sound. He is the reason I was first introduced to cats, and why they have become such a big part of my own life!

Safety, trust & environment

Currently, I only am available for drop-in visits at your home. I do not have the proper facilities to care for your pets at my current location.

Information Richard B. would like to know about your pet

In addition to knowing where your pets litterbox, food, etc is kept, It is very important to know favorite hiding places. This way when I arrive I can immediately find and check in on your cat (if they are not quite so adventurous as to meet strangers at the door!)

A typical day

Head pets, belly rubs (if permissible), brushing, playing with wand or laser pointer toys. The possibilities are endless and really depend on your cats personality! Some cats like to simply be left alone, and do not do well with strangers. If this is the case I will still check in on them, but make sure to give them the space they need without adding any extra stress.
