About: I've had dogs all my life and understand the anxiety for parents looking for someone to care for their furbaby while they are away. Pets are family, and they require the same consideration as leaving a child with a care provider. We will be empty nesters this fall and looking for more structure, and would love to provide peace of mind for you while you are away from your pet. Let me ease your concern and provide you with peace of mind. I work a flexible schedule that allows me to ebb and flow as needed. My flexibility translates into the ability to care for your pet in their established environment or drive for a walk in the park if your area is not great for walking and you would prefer that option. While caring for your pet, I will follow your rules and guidelines, continue your training and ask questions to ensure we have clear understanding and my interaction with your pet will put your mind at ease and not cause more stress.

“Kim is a wonderful sitter and walker! She communicates clearly and reassuringly about how my pets are doing (3 dogs, 2 cats) regardless of if she is just booked for one walk or a full boarding. She is clearly so passionate about the care that she gives and the animals that she is trusted with. She takes detailed note of any mentioned instructions and is almost too “by the book” at times with how conscientious and vigilant she is of the things i mention relating to my pets care! Incredibly trust worthy, patient, flexible and reassuring!”

From the very first meeting, she took the time to get to know my pets, their personalities, and their specific needs. While I was away, she sent me regular updates with photos and videos, which reassured me that they were in excellent hands! She followed all of my instructions to the letter and even went above and beyond, like giving my dog extra playtime and making sure my cat had plenty of snuggles. When I returned, my pets were calm, happy, and well-cared-for. I wholeheartedly recommend Riley to anyone in need of a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!”
