Lover of Dogs of all sizes
Pet care experience
I love all dogs and have looked after a few different breeds over the years. Due to my passion in travel I haven't had the chance to have a dog of my own. I have taken care of family dogs (2x German Shepards and a Cockerspaniel) whilst house sitting for 3 weeks at a time since I was 15. In the past I have fostered 4 dogs for LUNA (animal rescue based in Letchworth), they stay with us until they find their forever home. My parents live with me so there is always someone to give dogs lots of cuddles, playtime and attention. I will send picture updates during dog stays so don't be surprised if you see a parent in the background :)
Reviews
Skyla is clearly happy spending time with Kim. She is well looked after and we will book again.
Skyla was so excited to see Kim and then so relaxed when I collected her and had clearly enjoyed her stay
Kim & her family looked after our old boy Bruce ( 13 yrs in March 2024). So very well. They were clearly all so patient & kind. Despite him being ruled by his stomach. Bruce was in no real hurry to come back home. This was a much nicer, more comfortable experience for Bruce than kennels would have been. We won’t hesitate to ask for Kim’s services in the future.
Skyla clearly was well looked after and relaxed and I will happily leave her with Kim again

Even if your dog has good recall I keep all dogs on a lead on walks. Please ensure your vet info is updated on your profile in case of any emergencies.

Information Kim E. would like to know about your pet
Is your dog profile up to date? Does your dog have any habits? Do they need a lot of attention? If they're staying over what time do they usually go to bed and wake up? What are their meal times? Your checklist: Dog food and treats (and some extra just in case) - We don't want to change a dogs food as they can get quite ill with dietary changes. Harness for walks in necessary (doesn't apply to all dogs) Poo bags (although we always have extra) Bed, Toys and blankets - anything that will make staying in a new place comfortable Crate for boarding -if your dog is not crate trained please let me know at time of booking. Please note we are currently only booking dogs that are crate trained and over the age of 3 years old.
A typical day
I'm lucky enough to have a fenced garden with a foldable back door so we can let dogs sniff around the garden and easily keep an eye on them. There is a big open park not more than 20m from my house as well as loads of fields and farm land to take in all the sights and sniffs on walks. We aim to do at least 3x 30mins walks a day (breakfast, lunch and dinner times), if your dog needs more or less please let me know.

I'm currently working from home with flexible hours although I'm in a London office once a week. I'm available almost any time with notice, any day of the week. I'm also available to do home visits if needed but will need more than a day's notice.
