Pooches & Smooches - Cats & Kisses!

Pet care experience

I love fur babies, and I'm grateful to treat them as family! I've always had dogs, cats, birds, fish, and most times all at the same time! I have my own doggy crew, and I couldn't imagine being without them! We support and love each other, and I'm so grateful for them! I really enjoy being outdoors, walking, hiking, exploring and sharing time with furry ones. I'm fun, loving, energetic, reliable, responsible and nurturing. I always go the extra mile to offer super caring affection and service to my furry clients. It's important for your little ones to feel loved while you're away at work, travel, etc. I'm grateful to be available for walking and drop-in visits; and at times I am available for Day Care and Boarding (message me for rates if these services are needed). I have a single story apartment home with a good size private patio, and a high paved privacy wall, that makes for a secure and spacious area for having outdoor time. I also have a small wading "kiddie" pool just for fur babies to cool off in. I am very careful not to have them outdoors during severe heat, but for very limited time potty breaks. I also keep plenty of fresh water available for them (indoors and outdoors) and lots of plush fur baby beds (indoors and outdoors) for a choice in comfort and relaxation options for your baby! Because I am a fur baby owner myself, of very small ones, it is important that your baby or babies are healthy, up to date on vaccinations and flea preventative, and also friendly. Unfortunately, I cannot offer day care or boarding for cats. However, I can drop-in and care for your cat while at work or away on vacation! I promise to give your babies exclusive care. I hope to meet you and yours! Thank you for supporting my small business! I am so grateful for my clients!

Kim is honest and kind.

I am so thankful for Kim. She is very reliable and honest when she walks our dog. She has allowed us to have consistency with our work schedules. We know that we can always count on her during the week. She goes above and beyond when she is able to by spending more time with our dog outside. She has been very good to us. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter or walker.

We have had dog walkers before through Rover but Kim has been hands down the best. Not only is she the most consistent and reliable dog walker we've had but you can tell our Kaija looks forward to seeing her. Even Kaija's attitude is better when we get home thanks to Kim! If you need someone that will make sure your furry friend has a reprieve while your away you can rest assure that they are in good hands with Kim!

Kim is fantastic!! She’s very reliable and loves animals! I have three dogs and she handles multiples very well! She’s sweet with all of them, and they love her! I book her while away, and even at times I’m working from home, and can’t get my babies out for a good walk! She’s always there when I need her! Energetic and full of joy to see my babies!

Just a Kind Reminder... My rates are based on the season, and changes due to severe weather conditions of heat here in the Valley (Arizona). The current rate may also be modified a bit, at the time of booking, to reflect a slightly higher rate based on any lengthy travel distance from my direct service area. I will certainly communicate this with you at the time of booking, and you will have the ability to decide if it works for you. I'm really flexible and fair, as I ultimately would love sharing time with your fur baby! Be sure to share all of your baby's favorite things to do, and also if he or she has any health conditions, or if taking any current medications that I should be aware of in order to care for him or her to the best of my ability. It would also be great to know a little about his or her personality, temperament, energy level and dietary restrictions. I do have four small dogs, so it is important to know if your fur baby plays well with others. If not, my babies can be kept separate for the comfort of your baby. Please feel free to share anything that you feel will better enable me to give your baby the best care possible and promote comfort and joy. **NOTE: - Please be sure your furry one is actively being vaccinated and on a flea preventative; mandatory for booking me. I want to ensure your baby is protected against any pests while in my care. Thanks Bunches!!

A typical day

During our 30 minute walks, strolls and time outdoors, we will take full advantage of your lovely neighborhood, backyards (yours or mine), the parks, and each unique experience it has to offer! I enjoy exploring with my furry friends, and also taking plenty of photos along the way! You will find the photos to be a real treat! I will cater to his or her energy level, and we will relax, or have fun hitting the pavement, trails, and all of his or her familiar stomping grounds, and even some new ones! And if you prefer, we can hang out in the backyard and have loads of fun while sharing time! Fresh water and treats (with your permission) are part of our dog walking time! Along with me paying close attention to your fur baby, and the outdoor temperatures for safety; based on temperatures, we may have a quick potty break and spend our time inside. If a water hose is available, spraying the ground/rock with water before potty breaks is also part of safety measures during high temperatures. The 30 minute Drop-in visits will be full of lots belly rubs, love, laughter, feeding and water refills, and a quick potty break... and treats with your permission! I will ensure that your baby is cared for and full of joy during each visit! Day care and boarding will enable your loved one to have an additional family home as I will treat them like my own! We will have so much fun, and lots of spoiling will go on, indoors and outdoors! Please message me for Day Care and Boarding bookings as my rates are listed per request.
