TONIA FLEMING
CAT CARE SPECIALIST
Serving cat parents since 1997!
Hello! I'm Feline Aficionada Tonia Fleming. I'm a cat care specialist, offering cat sitting, grooming, and consulting for healthy, senior, disabled and special needs cats in Massachusetts. My Purr-spective on cat care has developed over 25 years of caring for cats and I'm excited to share it with cat parents and enthusiasts!
Cats are beautiful, hilarious, mesmerizing, comforting and curious creatures that have intrigued me my entire life.
My career started in 1997 when I opened a cat boarding, grooming and supply boutique called The Kitty's Corner in Whitman Massachusetts. After a few years I was learning more and more about caring for cats that I began to also offer cat sitting and special needs care in clients homes.
When I moved to Kingston, I added on cat boarding in my home, in addition to cat sitting by day!
In 2012 I started a small cat tv show called Purr View, sharing cat care and feline lifestyle feature stories through public access and then on youtube.
To keep things simple, in 2021, I bundled all my endeavors into one business name under Purr View on one website!
In 2016 I won First Place In News/Magazine NP for the episode of Making Homemade Cat Food on my Purr View TV Show℠ in the North East Alliance For Community Media Film Festival and was nominated Honorable Mention in Pet Care Services in Kingston Massachusetts Wicked Local Awards.
I believe it's important to stay active in the cat industry and I am a member of: Pet Sitters Associates, a Professional Member of The Cat Writers Association, Supporting Member of International Cat Grooming Institute.
I have an A.S. in Animal Care and Management from Becker College and a BSSp in Communications and Public Relations from Emerson College in Boston.
Even after all these years of taking care of thousands of cats, it never gets old.
