Caring and Trusted Pet Care

Pet care experience

Ever since I can remember, I have always been around and loved animals. Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My personal experience in Pet Care has grown into me becoming a professional Dog Walker and Pet Sitter. Today I share my home with 5 rescue dogs and 2 cats. We also take in the ocassional dog from high kill shelters and work to find them new, loving forever homes. My soft spot is for senior and special needs pets and have decided to specialize in their care. My expericne covers things such as surgery recovery, cancer care, injections/inhaler adminsitration and disabled pet care.

Kim came in to feed our cat and change the litter box every morning and evening while we were out of town. She sent photos and a brief description after each visit, and our cat seemed very happy and comfortable around her! She even offered to water our plants when they started to look a little dried out during our time out of town. Very pleased!

Kim was great on short notice. Took wonderful care of our golden retriever.

Kim seems very attentive to my rescues and their special needs/ disabilities. One is almost blind and very slow. The other is apprehensive about life and has quite a bit of anxiety. I really appreciated her taking them for a walk at their pace. She even allowed my elderly dog to sit on the deck for a couple of minutes in the sun- her favorite thing in the world to do (except eat)!

I had to go away for a few weeks and used Kim to walk our rescue puppy twice a day. They were great and trustworthy and I loved the summary of each walk and the pictures. Very happy puppy!
