Both a cat and dog lover!

Pet care experience

I am experienced in nearly every aspect of cat and dog care, except grooming! I know how to make sure your furry friend receives all the love and care they need! :) I’ve owned a cat since 2008 and multiple smaller animals growing up (fish, lizards, snakes). Throughout the majority of my life, I temporarily took care of friend’s and family member’s dogs! This includes plenty of dog walking, playing, cleaning, bathing, and feeding. I also ran a dog club called Cause for Paws for 4 years when I was in highschool, where we held fundraisers for animal shelters and played with dogs and cats in shelters! I’ve always been drawn to animals and their company, which is why I was president of a club to help shelters. It comes pretty naturally for me to take care of them, since I know they need lots of love and attention!

Super flexible and accommodating! Our pup felt totally comfortable with her and didn’t wanna come home :)

This is my 4th time bringing Gavin over for house boarding. Kim always does an amazing job watching him, sends me a bunch of photos, and she has amazing availability. It’s hard to find cat boarding, but I’m glad I found someone that works for me. Will be bringing him back again and again!

Kim was so amazing with my little puppy, Lola. She sent many updates and photos throughout the day. Would definitely book again :)

I would highly recommend Kim for babysitting your fur babies! She is one of the most attentive, caring, and patient people I know! She knows exactly how to comfort animals experiencing separation anxiety or animals with anxiety due to being in a new environment. I can’t forget to mention the baby voice she uses with all animals to comfort them! She provides her full attention to make sure anything around her is getting the care and love it deserves.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a pretty small shoe-box-style studio apartment in the West Village/Greenwich area. I allow all types of dogs to stay here, regardless, as long as it’s okay with you of course. I always make time for much needed walks.

Information Kim J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any allergies, whether it’s mild or severe! Also, if there’s any particular rules you’d like them to follow (for example, if they’re not allowed on furniture).

A typical day

I love playing with dogs and making sure that they’re getting the proper exercise that they need! I spend most of my time walking dogs around the West Village, since it’s a very relaxing place to go on a nice stroll. I’m also a 5 minute walk away from Washington Square!

I’m a film student at NYU Tisch with lots of tasks and homework, but I know the importance of paying a good amount of attention to pets since I’ve balanced pet life and school life since 2nd grade! Since my classes are scattered throughout the day, I typically dedicate my care to pets in between sessions. I also work on the weekends, where I’m a bit more busy for longer periods of time.
