Information Kim L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know how shy or outgoing your "fur babies" are, what schedule they're generally on, if they have any favorite toys, or if they will need any meds.

A typical day

I pride myself on establishing connections and meeting your little guys on their own terms. If you're boarding in my home, we have a giant window in the dedicated casita, which makes for perfect "kitty TV"!

Pet care experience

Other than a break when I was in the UT dorms in college, I've had cats continuously since I was about six. Over the past couple years, I've also fostered with Austin Pets Alive, and I've cared for 38 cats (primarily kittens) until their adoption. I also have experience with bunnies (including giving them meds) and chickens (I used to be a member of the Sustainable Food Center chicken co-op) and small dogs. My friends think I'm a pet photography wizard!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
