Availability
I am semi-retired after working for 30+ years in the Human Services field. My weekends are currently free. I have some flexibility in my weekday schedule so I may be available on a case-by-case basis for weekday dog walks and pet drop-in visits that are in western Loudoun County and within a 10 minute drive of my home.

About Kim K.

Safety, trust & environment
I will care for your pet in your home so that they will be the most comfortable. I am available for overnight stays to keep your pet company and to provide close supervision, lots of TLC, food, water, potty breaks and anything else you may need. I am a non-smoker and non-drinker. I am very detail-oriented, responsible and dependable. As a bit of an overprotective dog mom, I have needed to entrust my dog's care to a pet sitter. My dog is my world. So I know just how valuable trust, dependability and attention to detail are. What matters to you matters to me. I will follow your instructions down to the smallest detail. I will be diligent in communicating with you, sending regular updates and photos of your pet so that you know they are safe and happy in my care.
Information Kim K. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any health issues, allergies, special needs or special accommodations as well as any specific behaviors that I should be aware of in order to provide the best, individualized care as possible.
A typical day
Does your pet need physical activity, longer walks and playtime? Is your pet more laid back and prefers snuggles, pets and company? Do they need special food combinations (I once cared for a dog who ate a mixture of dry kibble, cottage cheese, green beans and topped off with fish oil) or very structured schedules? I am happy to accommodate any specific needs. No task is too quirky to take care of our fur babies.

Pet care experience
I started taking care of neighbors' and friends' dogs, cats, fish, hamsters and birds when I was 14 years old. I love animals and wildlife of all kinds. I have been a cat and dog mom for 28 years and have had 2 leash and dog-reactive dogs (strong, 60 pound+ mutt and pit bull) so I am experienced in dealing with these situations. I have strong situational awareness with my head on a swivel when walking dogs. My senior kitty required specialized medical care at the end of her life with daily prescription medication and subcutaneous fluids. I have volunteered as a dog walker and cat snuggler at Friends of Homeless Animals rescue. I have been a social worker for 30 years and am nearing retirement from full-time employment. I would love to use my love of animals to continue working as a pet-sitter and dog walker. I am very organized, detail-oriented and will care for your pet as I care for my own. I would love to meet you and your pets to see how I can be of service.

Reviews
Kim is an amazing caregiver for my dogs & cats - she is reliable, easy to communicate with, and cares for my pets as if they were her own. Kim is also very responsive and nice, and she follows instructions carefully. When I urgently needed help due to a change of family circumstances, Kim responded immediately to coordinate pet visits and made me feel a lot better about the whole situation also, since I could stop worrying about my animals. Thank you to Kim, highly recommended!
Kim was so great when she came to stay with our pup for a few hours! She sent lots of updates and photos and our pup seemed so comfortable and happy with her!
Wonderful! She’s very kind, flexible, communicative, and was great with my dog both times she came over.
Kim was amazing with our high maintenance little dachshund. We are so appreciative of her attentiveness, kindness, and professionalism. Your pup will be in great hands with Kim!
