Experienced & Knowledgeable

Pet care experience

PLEASE FILL OUT ALL OF YOUR PETS DETAILS AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO REQUESTING SERVICE With over 20 years of pet-sitting experience and over 20 in pet-related fields/industries. From working in a grooming salon, training & competing in dog sports, breeding, and extensive study through online courses and seminars in canine health (nutrition, breeding, training). I can handle most emergency situations and can medicate and give injections (diabetic) confidently. It is never easy leaving your "family" behind - When looking for pet care, rather than search out "good deals" when leaving your "family" behind, pay for someone with experience, knowledge, trust, and compassion. I can be contacted any time and have a website for both business and personal as Cinderbay Pet Services on Facebook. Feel free to search us out. For over 23 years I have trained and trialed dogs in obedience and agility competitions across the state and beyond.

Great communication and my 3 dogs were happy to see Kim. We appreciated the drop in visit to care for them while we were away.

Kim took great care of our dog, and accommodated our last minute request! She even managed to send some photos to keep us updated over the hours. Would definitely recommend her and will use her again!

Kim is fantastic!!!. We were out of town on a get a way and needed someone in the area to watch Lilly. Kim's Rover profile showed up, and she was prompt to reply. When we got there Lilly was a little pensive about her new surroundings, but Kim won her over. She sent pictures to help mom and dad feel ok with leaving their "baby" with a stranger. She is wonderful. Will definitely use her services again if in town! Thank you, Kim ?.

Kim was amazing! She was super flexible with us and our two dogs. Her fenced in area was perfect and she sent us pictures of the dogs inside during their day with her. You could tell she treated them like her own. ❤️ They were super happy leaving us to be with her, & super tired coming home. Definitely will be booking with her in the future for our “up north” trips!

Safety, trust & environment

I have only used Rover off and on as a booking service since 2021 and most of my clients have been referrals and off-book. We used to be located in Harbor Springs and most of my clients were based in that area (Harbor Springs, Bay Harbor, Petoskey). DROP-IN I will do my utmost to ensure the safety of your pet. If you do not have a fence or place to securely potty dogs that is your preference but if at any time I feel uncertain about this I will leash the dogs even without permission. I will do my best to care for them as you do but please know an unconfined or unleashed pet is a recipe for disaster. If you typically do not leash or contain your pet when you let them outside they will be required to wear a leash while I am there for liability and safety. BOARDING/DAYCARE DOGS: Preferably under 25 lbs. MUST be highly social with other dogs/humans, have manners, ability to be crated for short periods of time. Up-to-date on vaccines, on flea/tick treatment. Dogs must be able to respect gates OR be crated for short durations (2-3 hours max) to allow for downtime or to allow for me to tend to other client responsibilities outside the home. I prefer pets that are friendly, outgoing, and easy to manage. NO AGGRESSIVE DOGS!

Information Kim R. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog aggressive? Is your dog spayed/neutered? Does your dog have vaccinations? Is your dog current on flea/tick preventative? Is your dog crate trained? Does your dog have separation anxiety? Is your dog over 40lbs? (we do on rare occasions take IN dogs over 40lbs but please be aware this may be the deciding factor to taking you in as a new client)

A typical day

For dogs that occasionally stay here we have plenty of acreage to walk on (leashed). We treat them as our own. Plenty of cuddles. I love interactive games. Playing.
