Sup, pup parents! I’m Kim, a genuine, dedicated pet lover, pet caregiver and pet groomer with many years of experience. I’m honored to have the opportunity to care for your precious furry people! Beginning July 2022, I went from caring for animals part-time to caring for animals full-time. I have an endless amount of experience in a multitude of career choices. All my experiences have led me to today, caring for animals in any capacity. I’m originally from Mississippi and I graduated from Ole Miss. After college life, I lived in Nashville, Tennessee, for four years. I then lived in Utah for 28 years, lived in South Carolina for 1 1/2 years and then, beginning March, 2026, I moved back to Nashville to care for my parents. I’ve owned and operated several businesses (preschools/daycare centers, a life coaching practice, and a gift shop). Along with business ownership, I have worked in additional fields such as advertising, marketing, sales, and public relations. I have worked with and I have cared for over 300 different dogs in the past three and a half years. Like people, each and every pup is different, so each and every booking comes with more experience that helps me learn and grow. I’m able to customize the care for each doggie. I’ve received some professional training for different dog breeds, temperaments, behavioral responses, and dog grooming. In addition, there are so many online resources that have been such a blessing (ChatGPT, YouTube, Google, etc). I utilize such platforms to receive a multitude of education, all to ensure your babies are safe, comfortable and happy. In my lifetime I have had lots of different pets in my home, from being a child up until now. My first pet was a grey Mini Schnauzer named Gretchen. Other dogs: Scarlett the Irish Setter, Shawn the Irish Setter, Wrigley the white Lab, Mandy the Cocker Spaniel, Jackson the black and white Shih Tzu, Sam the English cream Golden Retriever, Chrissy the belenheim Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and Manning the ruby Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Currently I have Gibson a Tan and white Shih Tzu and Jenny a grey and white Shih Tzu Poodle mix. They are the loves of my life! I’ve also had LOTS of cats over the years. A few of the cats were: Sugar, Oreo, Dexter, Nala, Jack, Greyson, and my Claire Bear. December of 2024, I had to put down my 15 yr baby girl kitty, Claire. I’m still mourning her loss. I’ve also had other types of pets: a ferret, hamsters, guinea pig, fancy rats, turtle, tarantula, corn snake, parakeets, and fishies! Prior to moving back to Nashville, I boarded dogs, I provided doggie daycare, I did drop-in visits, I did house sitting, and I groomed dogs. ---------- Services Provided 1. Pup House Sitting & Pup Play for the Day 2. Pup Pop-ins 3. Pup Pampering (Grooming) Pup House Sitting & Pup Play for the Day Stay overnight or doggie daycare to come play for the day Pup Pop-ins Coming to your house for 30 or 60 mins at a time Pup Pampering (Grooming) Basic grooming (pre-bath prep, bath, blow dry, & trim). Additional grooming services also available. ----- I have skills handling all types of temperaments, like high-energy pets for example. I have experience with non-neutered/non-spayed dogs, administering medication, calming anxious animals, providing medical care, training, grooming, separation anxiety, play activities, and so much more. I’m available seven days a week. If I work on Sundays, I try to have that day a little more relaxed and low-key, just so the dogs and myself can have a little down time and a break. I’ll only do one grooming a day. I’ll do two if the dogs are under one roof. Sometimes a groom may be spread out between two days, all depends on the dog's comfort level. I have a love for life that includes things and activities like: spending time with my granddaughters; organizing (basically taking any disorderly space and creating order, sprinkled with a little love and happiness :) ); projects indoors and outdoors; yard work; gardening; creating systems; grooming my own dogs; acrylic painting; diamond art; anything crafty; decorating; designing; gift wrapping; any creative outlets; research; travel; learning new things; playing board and card games; football (especially my Ole Miss Rebels); and of course stopping to pet any dog or animal that is within a six foot parameter! So please reach out with any questions you may have! I miss all of my former clients, especially the ones I got to care for daily and weekly! Hoping to love on many more new furries soon! Whenever you need help while you’re away at work, while you’re away on vacation, or while you’re away for any event or for any reason, I hope I’m your choice for pet care. I’d be delighted to care for your love bugs in any capacity!
