I’ll fall in love with your dog.
Pet care experience
Dogs in my care become new friends and I treat them as my own. I have a 10 year old schnoodle who is the third dog I’ve had. I primarily work from home and am also a counselor for pet owners. Therefore my schedule is flexible and I make my own hours. I have tons of experience with dogs. I am a foster for a local dog rescue and have had several pups in my home. A few years ago I took in a hospice adoption which was life changing. I am passionate about senior dogs. I always make sure dogs in my care are active and am at the local dog park daily. There isn’t a situation I haven’t encountered with my own dogs or dogs I previously sat for. This includes senior dogs, chronic illness, medications, special diets, separation anxiety, aggression, resource guarding, puppies, high energy, dogs in heat.
Reviews
Kim was friendly and responsive. She looked after Lola who had a great time and was relaxed and happy when we picked her up!
Lula had a wonderful time with Kim! Kim was very responsive, gave us nice updates, and kept our very busy dog busy.
Kim kept my Labrador happy, healthy and social other fur-friends for a long weekend. I’d be happy to send my dog to her anytime!
Kim was awesome with Xander. He can be a handful when he wants to be and he is extremely big and strong but she was awesome at keeping him in check. Highly recommend and will definitely ask her to watch him again.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I watch dogs in my home closely and follow whatever rules dog owners use for their own dogs. Your dog can be crated if needed and will only go off leash if the owner and myself are confident your dog will not run or put other dogs at risk.
Home
Information Kim B. would like to know about your pet
Your dog must get along with other dogs. At a minimum, my dog will be present and there may be other dogs boarding. Advise if dog requires crate or has separation anxiety. If your dog has specific instructions, ie, allergy, special diet, barks when alone
A typical day
Multiple walks per day, trips to various dog parks especially Boston Common, occasionally Charles River Esplanade; fetch for pups who love to retrieve, play at home with various toy options, snuggles on the couch. Dogs can sleep on my bed.
