What We Do

Cat Visits

From the very start we have been “All About the Kitties”.  It is the very core of who we are and why we do what we do.  Our team of employees are all devoted cat lovers.  We take pride in caring for your kitties as if they were our own and value the trust you place in us.  We know kitties aren’t one-size fits all (that’s one of the reasons we love them!) and we customize our care to your cats individual personality. Getting to know your cat(s) is one of the very best parts of what we do.

Specialized Care

We understand the specialized care some kitties require. Tales of the Kitty was founded because Shelly’s cats required specialized care. Over the years, we’ve dealt with numerous feline health issues, both professionally and personally. We also excel at offering a helping hand to clients when their pets are diagnosed.

Friends of Kitties

Sometimes kitties have non-kitty friends and we are happy to care for them as well.  We’ve cared for rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, rats, bearded dragons, fish (fresh and saltwater) and chinchillas.

People Are Talking

“I can’t recommend them enough”

My wife and I travel a lot, and when we adopted two kittens back in 2009, we weren’t sure how it was going to work with our busy schedules. Tales of the Kitty came to the rescue and for more than ten years now, have taken great care of our cats. But what really sets them apart isn’t just the loving attention they give to our girls, but also looking after our home / mail / packages / alarms / floods / ants and whatever else comes up while we are away! They’ve helped us out so much over the years, and I can’t recommend them enough.

“Big thumbs up for this business”

I have been a proud customer of TOTK for over 10 years, and can wholeheartedly say they are absolutely fantastic. They truly care about not only their human customers, but treat our feline kids like family. I had a medical issue with one of my cats and Scott noticed it immediately, offered any necessary help and advice and kept me posted. Big thumbs up for this business.

“They loved her like their own”

I feel so lucky to have found Shelly and the Tales of the Kitty team to take care of my cats when I’m away from home. They send daily photos of the girls so that I can see them and a little note letting you know how they are, so you can enjoy your travels without worrying about your pets. When my 16 year old cat Milo was up there in age, they loved her like their own and gave her medication and kept me posted on how she was. One time I had a flood in my apartment while I was away and they quickly got to my apartment to check on my Julep to make sure she was ok. These are above and beyond moments that make me so thankful I have Tales of the Kitty. Harlow and Julep adore Tales of the Kitty and look forward to many visits in 2020!

“They are in the world’s best hands”

I truly don’t know what I would do without Shelly & the Tales of the Kitty (TotK) team.  I travel a lot for work, and TotK is always there to provide the most loving care to my two kitties (“the boys”).  The boys are very social cats and need a lot of attention and have also had a lot of medical needs over the past several years.  But I know they are in the world’s best hands with the TotK team.  I am also in the best hands with TotK, as I like to get update on my boys and make sure everything is ok while I’m away.  I often get email check-ins with photos or videos of the boys, and these always make my day.  I am so thankful to Shelly, Scott, Nicole and the rest of the TotK team for providing such a thoughtful experience to my boys and to me as well.  Thank you x a million!

“They treat our cats like family”

We’ve been with Shelly and Nicole and Tales of the Kitty almost since the beginning—through 5 cats and counting. They treat our cats like family and we feel like they’re family—even if they only come to our house when we’re gone.  Don’t know what we would do without them.

“I highly recommend!”

Having Tales of the Kitty take care of my beloved cat is easily one of the best decisions I have made.  At first I was hesitant about letting new people into my home, but I was put immediately at ease after that first meeting with Shelly.  Between work and personal travel, there is absolutely no worry in my mind that my cat will taken care of in a loving, caring, and professional manner.  It’s easy to book on the Tales of the Kitty website, and they respond within a day of booking.  Shelly and her team of trustworthy, kind caregivers has consistently left me feeling confident that I’ve made the best provisions for when I have to be away.  I highly recommend!

“Overall wonderful”

Tales of the Kitty has been taking care of my cats for the last 14 years.   The entire staff has been caring, considerate, and  overall wonderful.  I travel frequently and come home to happy healthy cats, and a spotless house.  When my father had his last illness over Christmas, Tales of the Kitty fit me in to their already booked schedule at the last minute; allowing me to worry about dad and my family not the pets.
