Move-in is a natural time to address dog doors, gates, fence modifications, cat spaces, feeding/storage areas, pet-damage repair and other pet-friendly room changes.
Custom spaces, access, storage, containment and repairs designed around how you and your pets actually live, with the home’s appearance, function and budget in the same conversation.
Custom solutions
Design + function
One project contact
No standard material markup
The best pet-friendly modification solves a daily household problem without creating a new one for the people using the room.
The pet door does not fit the existing opening.
Door type, wall construction, exterior exposure and pet size can make a standard installation less straightforward than the box suggests.
The litter box has nowhere good to live.
A built-in or concealed solution can organize the litter area, storage and cleaning access so the room stays more functional.
Your cat wants vertical space, but the room still needs to look intentional.
Shelves, ladders and climbing elements can be planned around wall layout, furniture and existing finishes rather than scattered across whatever space is left.
A standard pet gate does not work with the opening.
Odd widths, trim details, traffic flow and the way the room is used can call for a more tailored barrier or gate.
Pet supplies keep turning into visible clutter.
Feeding stations, storage and built-in pet spaces can combine everyday necessities with cabinetry or furniture-like finishes.
Scratching, chewing or normal pet activity has damaged the home.
Doors, trim, screens, fencing and related finishes can often be repaired or modified without turning the project into an animal-behavior service.
Love That Fix can combine carpentry, repair, doors, storage, fencing and finish work into practical pet-specific solutions rather than treating each piece as an unrelated task.
Custom dog doors, exterior pet entries, interior cat doors and hidden/interior passages planned around pet size, room layout, the opening and the way people move through the space.
Catios, enclosed outdoor cat spaces, cat ladders, shelves, wall-climbing systems and play areas that coordinate with the available architecture and practical cleaning/access needs.
Built-in or concealed litter-box solutions, feeding-station cabinetry, pet-supply storage, custom pet beds and integrated pet spaces that help everyday necessities live more cleanly in the room.
Interior pet gates, barriers, exterior pet-containment fencing and gates planned around openings, pet size, existing walls/trim, exterior layout and desired appearance. Containment is planned carefully, without promising guaranteed escape-proof performance.
Repair pet-damaged doors, trim, screens, fencing and related finishes, or create a custom home modification when an off-the-shelf product does not solve the actual household problem.
Custom pet work starts with the household, not a product catalog. Love That Fix considers what the feature needs to do, where it can realistically go, how the room is used, how it should look and what level of finish fits the budget.
Your pet Type, approximate size, number of pets and how the pet uses the space.
The space Layout, openings, wall/floor area, exterior conditions and existing built-ins.
People Walkways, furniture, cleaning, children/household traffic and daily routines.
Appearance Trim, cabinetry, paint, flooring and home style where appropriate.
A feature can look clever online and still be frustrating in daily use. These are the practical details that often determine whether a custom pet solution feels integrated or improvised.
Access points and features should be sized for the intended pet and installation conditions.
A technically possible location may still be inconvenient for the room, cleaning or household circulation.
Litter, feeding and rest areas work better when routine upkeep stays practical.
Material choices can account for scratching, dirt, moisture and normal residential wear.
Gates and built-ins should not make everyday walkways or storage worse.
Outdoor entries, catios and fencing should be planned around weather, site conditions and applicable requirements.
This diagram is an illustrative planning concept, not a completed customer project.
Catios, pet entries and concealed built-ins each have different design constraints. The project starts with fit, access and finish rather than assuming one standard solution works everywhere.
Possible planning considerations include attachment versus freestanding configuration, existing door/window access, enclosure size and placement, shelves/perches, cleaning access, weather exposure, material selection and the way the structure reads alongside the home.
Love That Fix can review pet size, door or wall compatibility, location, exterior exposure, household security considerations, appearance and existing finishes before confirming the project scope.
Built-in litter solutions can integrate the litter area, pet entry, storage and a furniture- or cabinetry-like exterior while keeping cleaning access in the plan. Feeding stations and pet-supply storage can be handled with the same design logic.
Love That Fix documents projects with before, progress and after photos. These reserved gallery positions are ready for genuine pet-friendly project photography as that work is documented.

Built-ins, litter & feeding storage
Pet gates, barriers & fencing
Pet-damage repair & finish work
Love That Fix can repair or modify supported areas damaged by scratching, chewing, torn screens or everyday pet activity. The work focuses on restoring or adapting the home; pet training and behavior services remain outside the project scope.
Doors
Trim
Screens
Fencing
Related finishes
Custom modifications
Scope can focus on the door, trim, screen, fence section or related finish rather than automatically turning a localized repair into a larger project.
When practical, a repair can sometimes be paired with a supported pet-access, gate, barrier or finish modification that better fits how the household uses the area.
A repaired door or fence does not guarantee a pet will never damage or challenge the area again.
Pet-friendly work often combines carpentry, repair, doors, storage, finish details or fencing. Love That Fix is structured to keep those pieces organized around one practical outcome.
Creative problem solving
Useful when the homeowner has a clear problem but no standard product or trade category cleanly solves it.
Custom carpentry + repair capability
Built-ins, shelving, doors, trim, wood work, gates, fencing and related supported repairs can be combined where the project calls for it.
Design, function and budget in one plan
Recommendations can consider how the feature looks, how the household uses the room, how durable it needs to be and the level of finish the customer wants.
Product-selection and shopping help
Love That Fix may help compare appropriate products or materials, with complimentary shopping/product-selection assistance where it fits the project.
One primary point of contact
Communication stays organized when a project combines multiple supported tasks rather than requiring the homeowner to coordinate every piece separately.
Transparent material approach
Love That Fix does not use a standard material markup, and available supplier or contractor discounts are passed through whenever possible.
Straightforward projects may begin from photos and dimensions. More custom catios, built-ins, fencing or wall modifications may need an on-site consultation before the scope is finalized.
Share what is not working, the pet type/size, area, photos and inspiration.
Photos and dimensions may be enough for simple work; custom projects may need a site visit.
Function, placement, materials, appearance, budget and scope are considered together.
Review the written scope and pricing before the project moves forward.
Love That Fix completes the approved work within applicable project requirements.
Review completed work, finish and any relevant care or use considerations.
Jobsite note: For everyone’s safety, pets may need to be kept away from the active work area during portions of installation or repair. Exterior projects are planned subject to applicable property, code, permit and association requirements.
Move-in is a natural time to address dog doors, gates, fence modifications, cat spaces, feeding/storage areas, pet-damage repair and other pet-friendly room changes.
For larger carpentry, fence or general home-repair needs, these related Love That Fix services explain the broader project capabilities.
Love That Fix serves homeowners throughout Johnson County and selected Kansas City Metro areas, with availability based on location and project scope.
Supported work includes custom dog doors and exterior pet entries, interior cat doors and passages, catios, cat ladders/shelves/climbing systems, built-in or concealed litter-box solutions, feeding and pet storage, custom pet beds or built-ins, pet gates and barriers, exterior pet-containment fencing, pet-damage repairs and other feasible custom modifications based on the pet, space and budget.
Love That Fix can review the product information, dimensions and proposed installation location to determine whether the project fits the supported scope and whether the existing door or wall is appropriate for modification.
Yes. Catios and enclosed outdoor cat spaces are part of the supported pet-friendly scope. Configuration, access, enclosure details, site conditions and applicable property/code/association requirements are considered project by project.
Yes. Custom cat ladders, shelves, wall-climbing systems and play areas can be planned around available wall space, existing finishes, room layout and the desired look of the space.
Built-in and concealed litter-box solutions are supported, including associated pet storage where appropriate. The design can consider pet entry, cleaning access and room appearance; concealment does not guarantee odor elimination.
Yes. Love That Fix supports pet gates, interior barriers, exterior pet-containment fencing and gates. Projects are planned around the opening, property conditions and intended use. Physical barriers are not presented as guaranteed escape-proof or pet-proof.
Supported examples include doors, trim, screens, fencing and related areas. The repair addresses the home condition and does not include animal training or a guarantee that future pet damage will not occur.
Creative custom solutions are part of this specialty. Tell Love That Fix what problem you are trying to solve, how the pet uses the space, and what you want the finished area to do. Feasibility is confirmed based on the property, project requirements and Love That Fix’s supported scope.
Text or contact Love That Fix with photos or video, a project description, measurements when available, the pet type/approximate size, your desired timeline and any inspiration images. Straightforward work may begin from those details; more custom catios, built-ins, fencing or wall modifications may require an on-site consultation. Larger projects generally require a 30% deposit to reserve scheduling unless the written estimate states otherwise, and workmanship warranty terms generally range from 30 days to 6 months depending on the service and written project terms.
Send a few photos, tell us what is not working in the space today, and describe what you would like the pet-friendly setup to do. We can help determine whether photos and dimensions are enough to start or whether the project needs an on-site review.
We Fix It. You Love It.
