Pet care experience

Pampers Petite Pets!

Looking for a dependable dog walker or in-home pet sitter for your petite pup, cat, or small pet? I’d love to care for your furry family member as if they were my own. I specialize in toy & small dogs weighing up to 20 lbs & also provide loving care for cats & small pets, including rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, & fish. As a lifelong animal lover with 28 years of hands-on pet care experience, I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, & needs. That’s why I take the time to provide individualized care, whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm, reassuring companion while you’re away. I intentionally keep a smaller client list so I can give each pet the attention they deserve. My goal is for both you & your pet to feel comfortable, confident, & cared for from our first meet & greet through your return home. Whether I’m taking your little pup for a walk, visiting your cat, or caring for another beloved small pet, you can expect dependable communication, thoughtful care, photo updates, & plenty of love along the way.

Safety, trust & environment

I understand that trusting someone with your pet — & your home — is a big decision. My goal is to make that experience as comfortable & stress-free as possible for both you & your furry family member. Every pet receives individualized care based on their routine, personality, & needs. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, quiet companionship, or simply keeping to their normal schedule, I’ll tailor each visit to help them feel safe, comfortable, & cared for while you’re away. For everyone’s comfort, I require a meet & greet before accepting new clients. This gives us the opportunity to get to know one another, discuss your pet’s routine, answer any questions, & make sure we’re a great fit. For additional peace of mind, I also carry my own professional pet sitting insurance through PCI in addition to Rover’s protections. My Experience Includes: • 28 years of caring for my own pets, including dogs, rabbits, & other small animals. • 9 years of caring for clients’ cats in their homes. • Dog walking & drop-in visits for toy & small dogs. • Caring for cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, fish, & other small pets while their families are away. Services May Include: • Individualized walks (never group walks) • Feeding & fresh water • Playtime & companionship • Cuddles (if your pet enjoys them!) • Litter box cleaning • Medication, when needed • Photo updates • Mail retrieval • Plant watering • Light rotation • Customized care based on your pet’s routine Please note: I do not offer overnight pet sitting. Holiday & premium Christmas pricing apply & are reflected in my Rover rates. If you have any questions about my services or think I’d be a good fit for your pet, I’d love to hear from you!

Kim is super reliable and does a fantastic job watching my cat, creme. She has been cat sitting for nearly 3 years and does a fantastic job. Thank you Kim!

Traveling is always bittersweet because we hate leaving Dale. However, having Kim as a sitter makes the anxiety of leaving that much easier. We do appreciate Kim and how she cares for Dale.

I don’t think we could travel without Kim looking after our boy, Dale. Simply the best caregiver and the kindest person.

Schedule

Because I work from home, I’m able to offer a flexible daytime schedule & can often accommodate visits between 10:00 AM & 4:30 PM, seven days a week. I intentionally keep a smaller client list so I can provide each pet with personalized, unhurried care & give every visit the attention it deserves. Please don’t hesitate to reach out, even if Rover shows that I’m unavailable on a particular day. My calendar may be blocked for a variety of reasons, & I may still be able to accommodate your request depending on the timing & your pet’s needs.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
Kim can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
To help ensure the best experience for everyone, there are a few things I’d like to know before booking. I specialize in toy & small dogs weighing up to 20 lbs. As the proud owner of two Maltese, I’m especially familiar with the unique needs of toy breeds & always enjoy meeting fellow little pups — especially Maltese & Maltese mixes! For the health & safety of all the pets in my care, I ask that pets be current on their vaccinations (or have appropriate titers, when applicable). Please also let me know if your pet has recently been ill or exposed to a contagious illness. Because I care for multiple pets across different households and also have a medically vulnerable dog at home, I take precautions to reduce exposure to contagious illnesses such as parvovirus & other communicable conditions. For this reason, I am unable to accept dogs who regularly attend doggy daycare. To help me provide the best possible care, please share anything you’d like me to know about your pet, including: • Allergies or medical conditions • Medications or special care instructions • Fears, anxieties, or triggers • Behavioral concerns • Favorite toys, games, or treats • Daily routine & feeding schedule • Leash manners & walk preferences (for dogs) • Anything else that will help your pet feel comfortable & at home while you’re away The more I know ahead of time, the better I can tailor my care to your pet’s individual personality & needs.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
