I have a house with a fully enclosed yard and a doggie door for independent use! I only take one client at a time for boarding/daycare so your pup gets tons of attention and potty breaks. I also have a 10 year old basenji/terrier mix (25 lbs) that LOVES playing with other dogs and frequently plays with the other 4 dogs in the neighborhood, so your pup will have a friend to play with.

Potty breaks every 4-8 hours

Information Kim D. would like to know about your pet

Would love to know your pup’s regular schedule so I can keep him/her on track as well as anything else you think might be helpful for their stay. I’d really like your pup to feel as comfortable here as they do at home.

A typical day

I take my pup on daily walks around the neighborhood and down to the dog park 2 blocks away at least once a week and would love to have your pup join us! There’s also tons of toys to play fetch with in the house. And I allow pets on the furniture so plenty of cuddle time is also available ;)

Pet care experience

I have always been a pet lover and would sit (in my home and at their home) for my friend's dogs for years and even after I got a pup of my own that I've had now for 10 years. He’s super social, gentle, and loves all animals just like me ;)

Kim was wonderful with Sky. She and her puppy Jax made Sky feel right at home. Kim gave Sky special attention with training to use the doggie door which was new to her. She was very kind & caring with Sky. Kim sent daily updates, photos, & videos that were greatly appreciated and helped me with my separation anxiety. I would be very happy to have Kim care for Sky in the future. I highly recommend her services.

We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Kim as our pet sitter; she was a gem! Her comprehensive care, genuine affection and keen sense to adapt to our pets' special needs were wonderful. She was attentive to the details, thorough, and seemed to consistently go the extra mile to provide the best care possible. Without hesitation, I would highly recommend Kim to watch your dog. Thank you Kim!

Kim took very good care of Dolly. Dolly also had a great time playing with Kim’s sweet dog Jaxon. It was so nice to see all the photos and updates. Kim clearly loves dogs and we are lucky to have found her.

Kim's home was a quiet retreat for my senior dog. He bonded with her little dog, and enjoyed her lovely yard. I noticed his fitness tracker exceeded his goals every day he stayed with her! I would gladly recommend Kim!
