Our Story, Your Peace of Mind

Our Inspiration for Gentle Pets

Gentle Pets was founded to provide dependable in-home care for pets throughout the Manhattan, Kansas area.

During our time working in veterinary healthcare, we saw how many families needed additional support keeping their pets active, comfortable & cared for while balancing busy schedules, travel or health limitations.

We created Gentle Pets to help bridge that gap through thoughtful walks, drop-in visits & individualized care designed around each pet’s routine and personality.

Experience You Can Trust

With more than a decade of hands-on pet care experience & over five years in pet healthcare, we bring an informed & attentive approach to every visit.

We have experience caring for senior pets, administering select medications when appropriate, & recognizing changes in behavior or health that may require closer monitoring or veterinary attention.

Every pet has different needs, routines & comfort levels. Our goal is to provide calm, dependable care that helps pets feel safe & supported while you are away.

Ensuring Every Pet Feels Loved

We believe pets thrive when they are treated with patience, consistency & understanding.

Whether caring for an energetic dog, a shy cat or a senior companion - we take the time to move at each pet’s individual pace.

At Gentle Pets we want you & your pets to feel like part of the family. Between clear communication, dependable service & attention to detail we strive to make each experience individual for both pets & their owners - so you see how much we care.
