Cathy Herman-Harsh of Chester County, Pennsylvania, has become known in her community as the “pet finder” because she’s able to track down dogs and cats when they go missing.
She admits that finding a lost animal takes persistence. And, it requires doing things that don’t seem right. Instead of running through the woods, chasing a pet and calling its name — which seem to never work — Cathy has other tricks that include luring the pets with lots of food, not making eye contact and scattering clothing that has the owner’s or pet’s scent.
Cathy explains that “every search is different,” but the rewards are great as it’s “an incredible feeling being able to help a distraught pet owner get their baby back.”
