Aunt Kelly, CPPS, FFCP
Owner of Just Fur-Babies
As the owner and founder of Just Fur-Babies, I’ve embarked on a journey to blend my lifelong passion for animals with my extensive corporate leadership experience. For over 20 years, I thrived in corporate sales, honing my skills in building lasting client relationships and delivering unparalleled customer service. My career was marked by consistent recognition for outstanding performance, driven by creative strategies that consistently surpassed company goals. However, a personal challenge sparked a profound career shift.
Relocating to Kansas City in 2015 as a single pet parent, I faced the daunting task of finding reliable, high-quality care for my own “fur family.” This struggle revealed a gap in the local pet care landscape and ignited a desire to make a difference. I made the pivotal decision to leave my successful corporate career, driven by a childhood dream of working professionally with animals. Just Fur-Babies became the realization of that dream.
My commitment extends beyond providing basic care; it’s about building a community of trust and excellence. I actively cultivate relationships with local and national industry experts, ensuring Just Fur-Babies remains at the forefront of premier pet care in Kansas City. I understand that pets are cherished family members, and I’ve dedicated my professional life to providing the highest standard of care, knowledge, and compassion to pet parents across the region. My goal is to offer peace of mind and unwavering support, recognizing the unique bond between pets and their owners.

Aunt Lea Ann
As a lifelong animal enthusiast, my passion for pets is evident in my own family, which includes a sweet yellow Lab and an affectionate orange cat named Henry. My extensive professional background began when I earned my Service Dog Instructor certificate in 1999. For nearly two decades, I consistently cared for service dogs-in-training and cats as cherished family members in my home. This unique experience has cemented my belief in the importance of consistency and respecting the strong bond you share with your fur baby. I am devoted to ensuring your unique cat receives the exceptional and personalized care they need during your time away
Aunt Laura
I’m a dedicated single mom of two wonderful children and a loving pet parent to two playful dogs and a sweet cat named Cupcake. Just as I’m committed to providing nutritious meals to students daily with the school district, I’ll bring that same level of care and attention to your cherished feline companions. After a fulfilling day, I understand the joy of coming home to furry friends, and I look forward to showering your cats with the same affection and gentle care I give my own. You can trust me to look after your sweet, playful, and cuddly family members as if they were part of my own.

My passion for animals has been constant, having cared for cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, and even chickens. I earned my Dog Training Certification in 2022, showing my dedication to advanced animal care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and I look forward to loving and caring for your feline family.
