Where your dog feels like family
Pet care experience
The most important thing to me when choosing someone to look after my pups is knowing that they are just as safe and happy as they are at home so I offer the same comfort to my clients. With us, your dog is a part of the family. What I Provide: -Pet First Aid Certified -GPS / Activity Tracking Collars available during stay -home full-time to provide 24/7 supervision -double-barrier to front door and back fence -personal attention - playtime and downtime -exclusive client booking -basic training -puppy proofed -extra safety precautions -healthy socializing with my dogs -custom care for special needs Not a day in my life has gone by that I haven’t had pets in my home and I never feel complete without a wagging tail and a wet nose when I wake up in the morning. Besides the basics of indoor play, walks, running in the yard and general care, I provide lots of love and cuddles with patience and compassion. I can work on some basic training and in the event of an emergency, I am Pet First Aid certified. I have two large dogs that love to play. If your dog prefers things a bit quieter, I have the option to separate the spaces if necessary. I don’t use crates for my own dogs but have them if needed. My yard is large and fully fenced, I also have a large deck for lounging in the sun and a shallow dog pool for splashing around on warm days. I only take one family at a time to ensure the best experience possible. Overall, I am very flexible and will cater to your dog’s needs and wants. Drop your pup off and relax. Our home is their home and they will be treated like family. Additional Info: I support the efforts of Dove Lewis Animal Hospital and volunteer for Mutts & Meows Rescue out of Houston when they make trips to Oregon.
Reviews
Our dog needed some special care due to a medical emergency and Kim went the extra mile and treated our dog like her own.
Kim took care of Izzie and Odie while we were traveling with family. She has a great space and a large fenced yard where our two dogs (and her two!) could run and play together! I really appreciated the prompt communication and numerous updates and pictures Kim sent us. Odie is a dog with special needs as a result of the meds he's on, and Kim and her husband Jarrad took such good care of him and Izzie! They followed his medication schedule precisely and were considerate when introducing him to their two dogs Thurston and Henry. Overall, I'm very happy with the service that Kim and Jarrod provided! One of the best sitters we've had! Many thanks!
Kim is fantastic! Updating us and sending pictures often so we knew Benson had a great time. Thanks, Kim for allowing Benson into your home.
Kim has been great to work with. Communicates well and keeps me updated on how the day is going. My puppy loves playing with her dogs Henry and Thurston. Home is clean and yard is good size for the dogs to play.

We have a large backyard, fully fenced with plenty of space to run and play. We also have a deck to lounge on in the sun and watch the wildlife. Dogs have access to all areas of our home but we do have gates throughout the house if we need to block an area off. Our house is clean and comfortable and dogs are welcome on all of the furniture, even if that means there’s no room for us! We have a gate right outside of our front door for backup security in case any furbabies try to slip out.
Home
Information Kim J. would like to know about your pet
How well does your dog get along with other dogs? How active is your dog during the day? Any behavioral traits I need to know about (separation anxiety, excessive barking, nervousness, aggression, etc)? Any medical conditions that I need to be aware of or accommodate? Is your dog current on all vaccinations?
A typical day
I live near Forest Heights so we have plenty of trails to explore and parks to enjoy. My backyard is large and fully fenced so there is lots of room to run around. My 2 large dogs also provide lots of fun play, leaving our guests tired and happy.

Availability
I work from home and my schedule varies from day to day but I am always available to attend to your dog. Including playtime, potty breaks and lot of love. My 2 dogs are full of energy and demand my attention throughout the day so I am very interactive with them throughout my work day. My husband works outside of the house but is very attentive to our fur-guests when he is home. One of us is always home when we are taking care of our visitors, even when boarding for an extended period of time.
