Pet care experience

My husband and I are recent empty nesters who love dogs and have remodeled our house to accomodate our pups and yours. We have had dogs our entire lives including dogs with special needs and health concerns so we are happy to help administer any prescriptions or special diets, etc We have both a rescue dog and purebred dogs and are active in showing our purebred dogs in conformation shows. Our children have recently left for college and we now have plenty of time and love to give to both our dogs and yours. We have literally remodeled parts of our house to be a comfortable safe enjoyable place to raise our dogs and help take care of yours. We crate our dogs and they have their own room in our house with an electronic dog door. Visiting dogs can use the electronic door as well. I am home most of the time but when I'm not, we have cameras installed in the pets room to monitor their activities and make sure they are safe. Our backyard has a smaller fenced in yard with faux grass and is kept very clean and safe. There is also a larger fenced in area that we have skunk proofed that the dogs can also run around in.

I had a little doggie that needed a new home. First family I thought of was Kim and her family. I have visited them quite often and have witnessed the wonderful care they give to their fur babies. The whole family rea)y takes joy in caring for them.Their baby dogs are living the life of Riley .They just have so much fun together.There home is set up for all the comfort.,safety and fun that any dog could ask for

Kim loves dogs and we had the best dog ever-Mandy. when we had to move overseas to a place that wouldn't be very good for Mandy to live we didn't know what to do because- you know- Mandy was the best dog ever. We considered a couple of options and asked Kim if she and her family could keep Mandy for us. Basically we were giving her the best dog ever. It didn't break my heart because I knew she was still in the family. She spent many happy years with Kim and her family. I knew that Mandy would get the proper care and love and attention at Kim's home.

Kim has been nothing but the best handling dogs! Having dogs herself she understands how owners want their dogs treated and she delivers! Don’t hesitate to reach out to her for all your dog sitting needs!

Kim was fantastic with my elderly Miniature Schnauzer! Mandy (my dog) had problems with sight and Kim accommodated her perfectly! She sadly passed away a few months ago but will be bringing any future dogs back!

Information Kim & Hugh M. would like to know about your pet

We like all sizes and breeds of dogs with good temperments. We can only accept spayed/neutered dogs and dogs up to date on all shots. We can take dogs who are used to using a crate as well as dogs who are well behaved without using a crate. We cannot accept dogs that are not spayed or neutered.

A typical day

We go on frequent walks around our suburban neighborhood as well as trips to petsmart and petco. My dogs love to play in the sprinker in the fenced backyard while I'm watering my grass.
