6. Kim T.
“Kim was great with my 2 dogs. My rescue is a PIA which makes it hard to find someone to sit them but Kim was so good with him! She was punctual, followed my instructions & was great with communicating & sending cards & pics which is always so reassuring. It's so comforting to know your pets are being cared for when you're away & can't take them. Will definitely be using Kim again when the time comes!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old! My family, friends, and neighbors have relied on me to feed, walk, bathe, and love their 4 legged family members for years. I can ensure you, your pet is in good hands! I work from home full time with a very flexible schedule. I usually have no meetings before 11am, and am off of work every day by 5pm, sometimes earlier. I am flexible for your pets needs and can accommodate a variety of schedules! My husband and I have a fenced in backyard with 2 dogs - a goldendoodle and an aussiedoodle - that will keep your fur baby company! Walks are enjoyed in our household daily! We feed our dogs 2 times a day, morning and evening, with lots of snuggles and the occasional treats in between.

About: I currently have two dogs and three cats (basset hound-beagle mix and a pit bull),our beagle has been our family dog for the last 14 years. In the past i’ve had multiple cats, a bunny, another pit bull, and hamsters/gerbils. Im a huge pet person in general and would love the chance to get to know your furry family member. My work hours are flexible giving me the convenience to stop by for a walk or even just to say hey! Your furry friend is my furry friend and they’ll always get the best care no matter what!! Can’t wait to get the chance to help you and hopefully make a new furry family! I prioritize pet care by scheduling regular feeding times and exercise breaks throughout the day, ensuring they get the attention and care they need. With a flexible work schedule, Im available for midday walks, playtime, or feeding sessions to accommodate their needs. And with spare weekend time, I can plan longer activities like outdoor adventures or grooming sessions to keep them healthy and happy. For in-home care, I'd set up a comfortable and safe environment, ensuring your pet has access to food, water, and toys. I would follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, and adhere to any grooming needs! For client's homes, I can assist with creating personalized care plans tailored to their pets' specific needs and preferences. This might include daily check-ins, feeding and walking schedules, administering medication if necessary, and providing updates on their pet's well-being.
