Meet The MHC Founder
Cathy, Founder
Cathy founded Mile High Companions to meet the growing demand for exceptional pet and home care in Colorado. The pet industry is booming, and Colorado is at the forefront. Forbes reports that millennials are the largest group of pet owners, and in Colorado, they represent a substantial 24% of the population – over 1.33 million individuals. Further highlighting the opportunity, a Forbes Advisor survey reveals that Colorado is a haven for "spoiled dogs," ranking among the top five states. This convergence of a large millennial population and a culture of pet pampering creates a significant demand for innovative and high-quality pet-related offerings in Colorado.
Witnessing firsthand the countless complaints from travelers struggling to find trustworthy and respectful care, coupled with alarming stories of neglect and abuse, Cathy recognized a pressing need for a reliable and welcoming service. Mile High Companions is built upon a foundation of core values: Respect, Integrity, Personalized Care, and Enriching Lives. These principles guide every aspect of the Mile High Companions service standards, ensuring that client pets and homes are treated with the utmost care and consideration.
Drawing upon 5+ years of experience on Rover, Cathy combined her passion with a diverse professional background. As a full-time Engineer, she uniquely blends analytical skills with a strong foundation in hospitality (4+ years) and sales (7+ years). Cathy is dedicated to delivering exceptional customer service and training future generations in the art of compassionate care. With Mile High Companions, Cathy is committed to providing a safe, reliable, and loving environment for Colorado's beloved pets and homes, always upholding the Mile High Companions founding principles.
