Professional dog trainer & vet tech
Pet care experience
Hello! I'm an ER vet assistant and professional dog trainer who works specifically with dog behavior and obedience. I love dogs of all breeds, ages, sizes, temperaments, etc. I am experienced with all kinds of dogs, including sick, aggressive, fearful, young, senior... you name it! As a vet assistant, I am comfortable with medicating cats and dogs (oral, injectable), administering CPR if necessary, and am knowledgeable in recognizing signs of distress or illness. I also have experience with reptiles, fish, and birds. I'd love to meet your pets! - Pets must be up to date on vaccines - Owners must be okay with/ provide muzzle if aggressive - For housesitting: 🐕🦺 I have a service dog in training that comes to work with me every day. She loves all dogs, cats, and people and would love to be able to come play with your pets! She is well behaved and has stayed at multiple homes overnight. She would love to stay over if possible! (It is NOT a requirement to book with me 😊)
Reviews
Kim is absolutely fantastic. I got great photos, animals looked like they were having a great time, she was communicative, and I came home to a clean house and happy healthy critters. Would absolutely hire Kim again.
Kim was great! Came and met our pups briefly before her stay. Was very knowledgeable and kind. Puppies did great :)
I’ve had Kim watch my dog since he was a young pup. Now he’s all grown up. Kim has a couple of dogs and cats of her own which are extremely friendly and makes new dogs feel welcomed. Whether it’s running around outside, playing in the dog pool or lounging at home, I know my dog will always have a great time when Kim watches him. She’s also extremely knowledgeable in dog and cat breeds because of her profession and never hesitates to answer all my questions about my dog. She even provides tips for me when training or if she notices someone out of the ordinary. Whenever I need my dog looked after I always message Kim first.
Kim is fantastic with dogs and other animals. I know that my pets are in the best hands possible when she is taking care of them! Her long history of caring for animals helps provide confidence and peace of mind when I'm away from my pets.

If your pup would to come over, I have a big fenced yard that they can run around in. I also have a friendly puppy they can play with, after a meet and greet of course.

A typical day
I'd love to take your pup to the park to play fetch or on a trail! Or if they're not the hiking type, we can snuggle up on the couch or we can have a playdate with my pup who gets along with all dogs!
