How Take Me Out Pets Started
A Lifetime of Caring for Animals
We started Take Me Out Pets in Conimicut back in 2021, but our love for animals goes back much further. After spending 38 years with the postal service and serving in the U.S. Coast Guard, Rick decided to bring that same sense of reliability and discipline to the pet care world. He runs the business with his wife, Cate, who has spent years volunteering and fostering for cat rescues. Together, we are a family-run team deeply rooted in the Warwick community, and we treat every pet like they are our own.
Focus on Fun and Comfort
Walking at Your Dog's Pace
We know that every dog has a different idea of a good time. Some love to chase a ball until they are tuckered out, while others just want a slow walk where they can stop and sniff everything in sight. We let your dog's energy and personality lead the way. By sticking to the routines they already know and helping out with your current training goals, we keep them calm and happy while you are gone. It is about making sure their day is as enjoyable as possible.
Taking the Worry Out of Pet Care
Safe, Professional, and Prepared
Your pet's safety is our top priority, which is why we are fully bonded, insured, and trained in pet CPR. We do a lot more than just standard dog walks. We are experienced in giving medications, helping with puppy potty training, and looking after cats, birds, and even exotic pets. We provide a calm alternative to boarding by coming directly to your home, so your pets can stay in their favorite spot. You can relax knowing we have every detail covered.
Expert Pet Care for Every Member of Your Family
From daily walks to overnight stays, we provide the personal attention your pets deserve throughout Warwick and the surrounding area.
Dog Walking
We plan our walks around your dog's specific energy level and favorite pace.
In-Home Pet Sitting
Pets are always happiest in their own space. We come to your home to handle feedings, playtime, and plenty of attention for dogs, cats, and small animals.
Overnight Care
This 12-hour service covers evening and morning feedings, walks, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing a professional is there to keep them company.
Puppies and Seniors
Puppies need extra help with potty training and positive habits, while older pets often require a slower pace and a bit more patience.
Medication and Transport
We are experienced in giving medications and following detailed health instructions from your vet.
Outdoor Adventures
For dogs with energy to burn, a walk around the block isn't always enough. We offer trips to local trails and swimming spots to give high-energy pets the vigorous exercise and variety they really love.
