Meet Rick and Cate Salk
Take Me Out Pets was started by Rick Salk, a U.S. Coast Guard veteran and retired postal worker who understands the importance of discipline and showing up on time. Rick and his wife Cate run the business with a deep respect for every animal they meet. While Rick handles the dogs—letting them set the pace and enjoy the outdoors—Cate uses her extensive background in cat rescue and fostering to look after our feline friends. We are fully bonded, insured, and pet CPR-trained, offering a professional level of accountability you can trust.
Personalized Care Where Your Pets Feel Safest
Tailored Support for Every Kind of Pet
Every pet has a unique personality and a routine that makes them feel secure. We focus on in-home care because it keeps stress low by letting your animals stay in their own environment. From daily walks and nature hikes to overnight stays and managing medications, we customize our services to match your pet's energy and medical needs. We handle everything from dogs and cats to birds and reptiles, making sure every member of your family is treated with patience and expertise.
Every pet is an individual, so we adjust our approach to match their specific needs. Whether your dog needs a high-energy hike or your cat prefers quiet company, we take the time to learn their personality during our first visits. This allows us to create a care plan that keeps them happy and comfortable.
While we spend most of our time with dogs and cats, we are experienced with all kinds of animals. We also provide care for birds, fish, reptiles, and small mammals. If they are part of your family, we are happy to give them the professional attention they deserve.
In-home care is often much easier on pets because it lets them stay in their own familiar environment. This keeps their routine consistent and significantly reduces stress. Unlike a kennel, your pet gets our full, undivided attention during every visit.
Yes. Take Me Out Pets is fully bonded and insured for your protection. Our team is also trained in pet CPR and first aid, so you can rest easy knowing your pets are in safe, capable hands while you are away.
Definitely. We keep you in the loop with regular updates and photos from our visits. You will be able to see for yourself that your pet is healthy, happy, and enjoying their day.
A tired dog is a well-behaved dog. Our walks and nature trips provide the physical exercise and mental stimulation dogs need to burn off excess energy. This helps reduce stress and supports their overall health and temperament.
We charge a small $3 travel fee per visit for locations 7 miles or more from our Warwick base. This helps us stay on schedule and provide the reliable, on-time care our East Greenwich neighbors expect.
