Caring and kind dog sitter

I am a firm believer that dogs are such a special part of the family. I've grown up around and had dogs my whole life, and I know the importance of peace of mind when it comes to making sure your dog is safe, loved, and happy. I'd be thrilled to give all the belly rubs, walks, trips to the park, and my undivided attention to make sure you can relax while away from your pupper! I work from home, and my schedule allows me to give frequent potty breaks and playtime. I can leave for lunch most days when needed. I've babysat for a golden retriever, hound mix, chihuahuas, and a few others over the years. I had my own dog, Maggie (golden retriever mix in photos,) who passed away at 14 (I'll miss her forever) and my husband and I now have our 8 year old dog, Charlie, who is the best! I am used to giving oral medications to dogs and would be happy to accommodate any needs your pet may have. I have grown up with cats and dogs, and frequently watch my family and friend's pets when they are away. I know how difficult and anxiety-provoking it can be to leave your dog with someone, especially someone you don't know. I am happy to do meet-and-greets and build a relationship as someone you can trust. I can send you picture updates, text updates, and you can even FaceTime with your pooch if you like. I can't wait to meet you and your pup!

Kim was great with our beloved fur babies! She sent us regular updates as well as photos throughout the weekend. We appreciated her communication and willingness to ask questions if she was unsure of something. We will definitely use Kim again in the future!

Kim once again did a fantastic job with my two goldens. She follows my (rather long) instructions perfectly, provides many updates, and genuinely cares for and loves on my dogs. She’s very honest and transparent with any questions she has. Would recommend- she is my go to pet sitter!

Kim did an excellent job watching my two golden retrievers for a weekend in my home. She followed my instructions to a T, and gave lots of updates. It is clear she has a genuine love for dogs. She gave them lots of love and exercise and stayed and spent a lot of time with them. Will definitely book again and recommend her to anyone!

We absolutely loved Kim! We had to go out of town last min and Kim was super accommodating and asked thoughtful questions to get to know Hudson before drop off. We got text and photo updates and we felt he was in great hands. Our dog wasn’t stressed in the least at pickup and we will definitely be booking Kim again. 10/10

Kim was very friendly and stayed in our home to watch my dogs. She sent us photos and was very friendly. One of my dogs gets nervous around new people but warmed up to her! Thank you again!! I will definitely use Kim again.

Kim was AHMAYZING! I will always recommend her! She made me feel so comfortable with my dog child! Kept me updated, sent the cutest pictures and I didn’t get back into town until late at night, she was super open and was fine with us picking up my pup so late! I can not say enough good things! Thank you Kim!
