About our guest:
Reilly Kahat is the Founder and Lead Adventurer at Pet Fit, a pioneering pet care service rooted in the lush landscapes of Ellicott City, Maryland, where he spent his formative years. From an early age, Reilly's life on a family farmette instilled in him a profound respect for animals and an understanding of the care they require. His childhood dreams of canine companionship became a reality with the adoption of Fender, a Maltese, marking the beginning of his lifelong journey with pets.
Reilly's educational pursuits took him to Colorado, where he sought an Eco/Bio degree with aspirations of contributing positively to society. However, it was the mountainous adventures with Patches, a dog that accompanied him during his college years, that illuminated his true passion for pet care and the great outdoors. Returning to Ellicott City without Patches but not without ambition, Reilly adopted Murphy from a local rescue, Small Miracles, and embraced his role as a devoted Dog Dad.
His experiences as a client of pet care services and later as a dog walker unveiled a significant gap in the market: the need for a professional, reliable, and adventure-centric pet care company. This realization spurred Reilly to establish Pet Fit, a testament to his commitment to offering exceptional care and customer service. Pet Fit isn't just a business; it's a reflection of Reilly's dedication to the health, well-being, and adventurous spirit of pets, providing Ellicott City's pet parents with a trusted partner in their pets' care journey.
