The Cats Meow!
Pet care experience
Hi - I'm Kim! I have experience with both dogs and cats. I grew up with dogs but have one cat of my own (soon to add two more to my family!) with extensive experience with behavioral quirks with cats. I am comfortable medicating animals who need daily medications, and am comfortable with pets who have special needs. I work during the day (8am - 4:30pm), but am available early mornings and evenings and most weekends. I deeply care about all animals and want to make your pet feel like they are the king/queen of the castle! Because I have my own cats, I will not board animals.
Reviews
I can’t recommend Kim enough. She is so good with my shy girls! Bribing them with extra good treats and sending me great updates. 11/10!
Reliable & good communication - we very much appreciate Kim’s care for our kitties!
This was the second time Kim took care of my girls. They are so shy but have warmed up great thanks to her good care! She even changed their box and gave them an extra cuddle. Highly recommend her 🙂
Kim took such good care of my cat! She got him to relax and made sure he received all the cuddles and attention he deserved!

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety and trust are #1 for me - both for your animal(s) and for myself. Leashed walks are a must. Every detail is important to know when caring for your pet, to medication use, time of day they eat or go potty, etc. I want to stick to their routine as much as possible.
Information Kim M. would like to know about your pet
Overcommunication is preferable for me. Every detail matters. It is important for me to know what the regular routine is for the animal so that I can stay as close to that as possible. Medication instructions, veterinarian and emergency contact information, etc are vital for me to know. Favorite toys, treats and walk routes are a bonus, too!
A typical day
We will spend time getting to know each other, sticking to a routine, and ensuring a fun time! For dogs, I would want to make sure to go on a nice long walk or hike. For cats, a high energy play session followed with treats would be in the plan. It would be great if I could take your dog on a nice hike!
