A StayCation @ Gramma Kim's!!

Pet care experience

We have had dogs as long as I can remember. I love dogs and can't imagine a life without them. Once ours 'leave us' I still want to have pets around but not permanently as we plan to do some traveling. This will be my way of doing so but still being able to travel as well. A win! win! I love it! We live on a large lot just outside of town and take our dogs on daily walks and are outside as often as possible. We have a diabetic dog so if you have a dog with special needs we can give shots or medicines as needed as well. No worries. Your dog(s) will be in great hands here. Let me be the 'favorite doggy grandma' your 4-legged friend(s) can't wait to hang out with!

Kim took wonderful care of my senior (14 going on 15 years old) yellow lab mix dog Muffin while I was on vacation. Muffin came to Minnesota to live with me after my brother passed away a couple of years ago - she had spent most of her life as a farm dog. She has become very clingy to me. Kim was very patient and kind to Muffin. She was a little stubborn about eating and wanting to be outside. Kim is very kind and positive person and took great care of Muffin in her loving home. Gave me peace on my vacation that Muffin was in Kim’s loving and kind care. Would not leave Muffin with anyone else except for Kim.

Kim is a great fur baby sitter. She communicated with me throughout the stay and made me feel good that the dogs were safe and taken care of. A major plus for me were the pictures she sent of my dogs showing how they were getting along. I really appreciated that. It’s nice to know the dogs are being love and cared for the same as if they were home. Thank you Kim!!!

Information Kim B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you pup has any food allergies and if I am allowed to share some of our dog treats with your pup or not.

A typical day

If your pup has some favorite toys they like to play with please send them with. I love to play 'tug of war', fetch and will even get down on the ground and wrestle around with your furry friend as well. This will be your pups 'home away from home' where they can come have fun and not have to be locked up in a kennel while you are away leaving you with peace of mind knowing that your best friend is having a great time just like you.

I work but am home by 2:45 daily. Gives us plenty of time to play. I love playing with my visiting fur friends. Even take time to brush them. 🤗! If they get too dirty while playing & having fun here I will give them a bath too. Want them looking as good when they go home as they did when they came! 🙈
