ABOUT ME:
I'm 100% cowgirl, was raised on a ranch & ran a Suffolk sheep breeding outfit in my early teens selling the lambs to fellow 4H'ers. I've adored and cared for critters all my life, including chickens, horses, rabbits, geese, ducks, & sheep. I've had the honor and pleasure of being the parent to many kitty cats- most of which I adopted from shelters. I've been riding horses since I was only 5 years old & have competed in polo, dressage, western pleasure, stadium & cross country jumping, halter class & participate at cattle drives. I take immaculate care of my pet family and customers pets. I love doing fun things with my cats, engaging their whimsy. They are all trained to walk on leashes so they get to enjoy the pleasures of the great outdoors while in the safety of my watchful eye and for the holidays, I always do special things for them, like for Easter, I hide tiny pieces of roast chicken on tin foil & watch them with delight as they run around the yard trying to find them all!
Thank you so much for your visit & I look forward to meeting your pet family & have the pleasure of doing business with you.
Miss Carrie Wilkinson

Kitty Playhouse condo! Here's an option- bring your cat to my house.
I offer an alternative to coming to your home to care for your cats. I have a very large, whimsical cat condo complete with play tubes, ramps, scratching posts, toys, carpeted floor, & windows on all sides so kitty can watch all the birds that come feed at my bird feeders or splash around in the bird bath (photo of cathouse pictured above right). Pop up windows can be open during the day so kitty can feel like he/she is outside and windows are closed at night to keep the cold air out. It is full of comfy cushions and blankets for kitty to sleep on. Offered for summer or spring seasons only as it is not insulated for cold weather.
Please note: I only accept cats which are HIV (Leukemia) negative and are on flea medications: Revolution, Advantage, Frontline, or Program so it will be disease and flea-free for the next visitor. Proof of the above must be furnished for a condo stay.
