Pet care experience

Responsible animal lover

I am passionate about all animals. Very experienced dog and cat sitter. Patient, kind and loving. Enjoy playtime and walking dogs. And cuddles if they let you.Very reliable and animals seem to take a real liking to me as I am very calm natured. I have had dogs all my life, various breeds. I'm a keen outdoors enthusiast and a retired individual with an appreciation for life, especially when it involves a good walk or enjoying nature. Trustworthiness and reliability are second nature to me, something I believe is crucial when looking after someone's home and pets. I've grown up with dogs, raising huskies from pups to their senior years, and have often looked after pets for family and friends. I’m here to ensure your home and pets are cared for with great attention and kindness, drawing on my years of experience and genuine love for animals. References from Trusted House Sitter: My experience with Kim was excellent! Communication was easy, highly responsive and left me with no worries at all. My home and animals seemed very happy and in order on my return. My dog was tired out from walks, and my cat had seemingly become a lot more sociable!! Something I didn’t expect at all. Kim made leaving my home and animals entirely stress-free - highly recommended 😁 Rachael. #2: Kim was a great sitter. Friendly and easy. Quick to respond. Sent great pictures of my dog and two cats and left my house beautifully clean and tidy. I would have no hesitation in recommending her as a sitter. Harriett

Our dog Edie absolutely loved her time with Kim. Kim gave us regular updates throughout the day and took such good care of her. Would highly recommend Kim’s services! 🥰

Kim is such a wonderful sitter. She adapts to the quirks and needs of our dog with care and patience. She took Koa on great walks which he loves. She sends daily photos and comments on the day which is so appreciated 😌. Koa always greets her for a new stay with joy and excitement. We are so thankful to have found her!!!

Kim was absolutely wonderful with our 3 pets. They clearly loved her. She was a perfect house ‘guest’ and I couldn’t recommend her more highly.

We were very fortunate to have Kim as our sitter again (we have used her a number of times). Our dog Koa was so happy to see her at the door and in all the pictures she sent, Koa was so clearly comfortable and happy being with her on walks and snuggling on the couch. Kim is so attentive to Koa (his likes, his quirks, his habits) and she clearly has a great love of animals. Koa's comfort level with Kim makes clear he feels that care and calm. She took him for lots of fun walks which he clearly enjoyed :). It is so important to be able to leave for a weekend (or longer, as we have in the past) and not worry for one second about Koa, knowing he is in such expert, conscientious, caring hands. Kim left the house in pristine condition (certainly not mandated in a dog sitter but greatly appreciated!) We always try to have Kim as our sitter and are so thankful she could help us out this time. She is the best!

Kim was a brilliant sitter, who looked after our slightly anxious rescue dog Daisy for the day whilst we were doing a cookery course on holiday in Ilfrac. As we had only arrived the day before, Daisy was a bit anxious in her new surroundings and quite wary when Kim first arrived, but even after a bit of a stressful resource guarding issue with a new ball, Kim was very kind, understanding and patient. Throughout the sit we received lots of photos, videos and updates, and it was clear that Daisy felt more and more reassured and relaxed as the day went on, having lots of snoozes and snuggles on the sofa, as well as a couple of walks despite the terrible weather! If we are ever in the area again we would absolutely call on Kim to look after Daisy and can highly recommend her. Thanks so much again Kim! xxx
