Techie WFH Shiba Mom

Pet care experience

Reliable and patient dogsitter for friends and family. In the past I've taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, parakeets, guinea pigs. We own two rescued Shibas, KitKat and Myuu. My husband and I pamper and spoil them with attention, love, and they have a big bowl of toys and bones to keep them entertained. We go on hikes, trails, and doggy playdates. I work from home doing managed IT services and hubby is a DPT in Salinas.

Kim is AMAZING with animals. I was roommates with her and she instantly fell in love and started pampering my dog. Plenty of hugs, pets, and butt scratches. She is incredibly responsible and responsive to their needs. If you let her pet sit your dog, you'll have nothing to worry about. <3

I am delighted to share my heartfelt recommendation for Kim as a dog sitter and all-around remarkable individual. I have had the pleasure of knowing her for the past three years, initially connecting through an online art community. We have met in person since then and she has become one of my most trusted friends; she is like a sister to me. I can attest that she is one of the most giving, gentle, and compassionate people you will ever meet. In the duration of our friendship, I have witnessed not only her incredible skill as an artist, but also her profound love for animals. This is evident in the way I have seen her care of her two Shiba Inus, Kitkat and Myuu (and I’m sure she would gladly provide the photo evidence to prove it!). I am fully confident that she will handle pet sitting with the same unwavering commitment, reliability, and care that she consistently exhibits in every aspect of her life.
