Pet care experience
Hi! I'm a former ballet dancer and Physical Therapist who has been loving and caring for my own dogs, cats, rodents , turtles etc. for over 30 years! And for over 7 years I've done the same for clients and their pets. I love working with all types of dogs and feel equally comfortable with anxious, leash aversive types to senior, medically managed ones (I can administer meds). I'm also a certified Shiatsu massage therapist and love transferring my "human"skills to my "doggy" clients! Because I'm passionate about dogs and cats and their well being,I also do volunteer work with my teenage daughter at PAWS Chicago adoption center...share the LOVE!! I feel that it's a real honor to work with pets and their humans...pets are such special and deserving family members and to be entrusted with their care is both a pleasure and a privilege.
Reviews
I totally trust Kim with the care of my beloved dog. Kim is highly responsible both in terms of her care of my dog (and other dogs she walks) and also in terms of her interactions with me around scheduling and other issues She is observant and keenly aware of details having to do with Daisy's well-being and also her relationships with other dogs. She is very proactive and thinks carefully about Daisy's needs - for example in regard to weather issues. She is very attentive to how Daisy is feeling and often mentions how she sees Daisy reacting to things, e.g., weather, loud sounds, etc. Kim is a very thoughtful and steady presence as well as being warm and caring.
Animals are in tune to people and their true hearts. My pets adore Kim because of her heart and approach to them. She is conscientious, diligent and always does what is right for the animals. She truly has a very special way with animals.
