Information Kim & Mark H. would like to know about your pet

We like to know their personality! What toys and games they love to play, their favorite places to be pet, where they like to sleep, etc. We love all breeds, but have a soft spot for the bully breeds! We also like to know what your expectations are for us!

A typical day

There are a few great places to walk around our house, the neighbor is very quiet and has very little traffic. We can go for walks around the neighborhood (possibly see some llamas, cows, and horses!) or we can go to the park and go for walks or runs there! We also do trips to the Foothills and Greenbelt for additional stimulation and exercise :)

Seeking: Pets that love to play!

Pet care experience

I grew up loving animals and have kept that passion throughout my adulthood. Over the past 10 years I have spent 4 years as a foster parent for the IHS, I fostered puppies, dogs, cats, and specialized in rehabilitation and quarantine for sick and injured animals. I have walked dogs, done pet sitting, and currently volunteer doing rescue dog transports that help transport dogs from shelters across the country to rescues or adoptive homes in other states. I have been doing small pet sitting jobs over the past two years but stopped after losing both of my dogs to cancer within months of each other this past year. Now I am looking to fill my life and house with happy pets that need care and love, and to be able to provide fellow animal lovers like me with an experienced, trustworthy, and honest caregiver for their pets to help put their minds at ease during the day, overnight, or anytime you need some extra help! I currently work full-time and have a flexible schedule that allows me to work from home part of the time. I am able to accommodate most any pet needs and am open and willing to work with you to arrange the best schedule for you and your pet! When your pet is staying with me they will have no shortage of fun! My husband and I are both available to give lots of love, pets, and walks! When not out and about, our house has plenty of square footage to allow for games of chase, fetch, or lounging and we have no shortage of toys! When wanting to go outside the adventure never ends! Our property sits on a half-acre, is fully fenced, and has nice big trees, bushes, and places to explore! We have open availability and are open to long term and short term stays and love to have repeat clients! We often care for multiple dogs at a time and there is plenty of room for them to play, and we are able to provide separate sleeping and relaxing areas if they prefer those. We do daily walks, hikes, or runs, TONS of cuddles, and have plenty of toys available that will suit any pups preference. We think cleanliness is a top priority and we clean and sanitize daily. We vacuum, mop, and disinfect daily. We wash all toys and bedding between stays, and we shampoo carpets weekly.

I genuinely trust Kim and Mark to provide the best service possible for my two dogs. I feel confident and assured when I am away from them, they are in the best of care. I can’t say enough positive things about them.
