When A Boarding Kennel Won't Do

Pet care experience

I'm a retired founder of two licensed Pet Rescues in the metro area. They have been left in great hands and continue to save pets everyday. Now it’s time for me to slow down and care for the owned and well loved Dogs. Some of whom I may have helped rescue during my 30 years as executive director. As a Veterinarian Assistant I am experienced with injections, oral and topical medications, subq fluids, and after surgery or recovery care. Most dog do really well with me and i tend to have a conection with them that made rescue my lifes work. Timid or shy or emotional dogs do well with me as they have been a huge part of my rescue efforts. My home is dog friendly and my yard is fenced and a great size for playing and exploring. I've put alot of time into it so that we can all be comfortable and relaxed. If you need care in your home, I prefer to housesit in a clean and well maintained home. I will want to do a meet and greet before hand. I provide references of recent housesitting cliants. As a business owner, I understand conflicts, change of itinerary and delays, In most cases I'm flexible. However, Please keep in mind that a day is 24 hours. So if you need me for boarding in the morning, you are expected to pick them up in the morning. If they are going to be here more than 3 hours past the 24 hour mark, there will be an extra 1/2 day charge.

Kim is very caring and made us feel very secure leaving our puppy for the weekend. We will definitely continue to use her if she accepts moving forward.

Kim was absolutely amazing! She sent me a daily update on my dogs with pictures. She even brought in my outdoor Halloween decorations so they would not blow away because the winds were so strong. I will definitely be requesting Kim again the next time I travel!

Thank you again for making sure our girl is loved and well cared for when we’re traveling. It’s a wonderful relief to know our Essi is safe, loved and happy when we’re gone.

For 38 years my home has been set up to care for all aged dogs while running my rescues. The yard is double fenced, with pet safe plants and pea gravel. While at your home I provide a check list for you to fill out so that I can ensure your household needs and pet care requirements are properly addressed.

Information Kim F. would like to know about your pet

I find that I can handle most any situation so long as we are honest with each other. With rescue dogs, I rarely had a known personality, and was left to figure that out myself. It’s a treat to start out from day one with a care plan so that we can enjoy each other’s company. I prefer a face to face meet and greet, however an over the phone interview is fine also.

A typical day

When your pet stays in my home it’s like a vacation for them. They are doted on and given lots of attention. My goal is to make their time away from home happy and enjoyable. While in your home your pets will continue their usual reutines with a fun caretaker. My grandchildren call me Grandma Fun, and since I don’t see them so much anymore, I hope my boarding clients think of me that way.
