I LOVE ALL OF THE FURBABIES!
Pet care experience
I grew up on a farm in North Alabama and have always been drawn to animals. Caring for everything from chickens, goats, pigs, a donkey or two to multiple cats and dogs. In 2007 I went to work at a veterinary clinic and have happily been in this field ever since. I have 5 of my own sweet puppers in which 4 of the 5 receive medication daily. My experience as a veterinary nurse has taught me multiple things but I have recently discovered I have a heart for senior pets. The ones I lovingly call mawmaws and pawpaws. I love the puppies and dogs of all ages but the seniors just have a place in my heart.

Kim took photos and looked after my feline friends with great care. I am so thankful!
Kim was great!! Stayed in touch with us and happily the pups were happy with her.
Kim has been pet sitting our Shihtzu, Pearl for a few years now while we've been out of town. She and her family always give Pearl a big happy welcome when she arrives and send photo updates of how she is doing. It's so very nice to know that our dog is being loved and cared for while we are away and when we return to pick her up she is clean and happy. Couldn't ask for a better fit for our pup!
Kim is one of the most caring and qualified people I know, and she has an enormous heart for dogs. Kim's daughter is my sorority sister, and while I was receiving cancer treatment out of state, Kim kept my two dogs for me and took wonderful care of them every time I was away. Over the course of 7 months, I took my dogs to Kim's every few weeks, and I knew that since they were with her they were being treated with care and kindness every day. Kim is also a veterinarian technician, and knows how to care for dogs in an emergency situation. Although I moved to be closer to my doctors and my older dog Annabelle has since passed away, I know that any time I would need Kim to watch my dog Mila, I could rely on her. She is truly a kindhearted, caring, and qualified person, and I trust her in any situation to take wonderful care of my fur baby. I truly could not recommend anyone else more than Kim to care for your dogs!

I have a fenced in yard and 4 large dog crates for pets that are accustomed to being crated. I live in a quiet neighborhood so walks on a leash are easy and can be frequent. My cats and dogs are used to meeting and interacting with visitors and do so very well. Anytime we have a 4 legged visitor I always introduce them 1 at a time so the visitor doesn’t feel overwhelmed or intimidated. My husband, son, daughter and son-in-law are all adult and live here. Of course we are all animal lovers so there is rarely a time that someone isn’t home to love on the babies.
Information Kim R. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pets have special needs or certain things that they like or dislike. I can help with medication administration and things of this nature.
A typical day
Lots of playtime and interaction. We will go on walks in my neighborhood and the occasional park visit. I can also bathe your dog, trim nails if they are cooperating and brush them out for you.

Availability
I am currently working full time which is Tues thru Fri at a clinic in Fairhope. However I can easily do drop in visits within a certain area. Also since there is almost always someone at my house your pets would rarely be left alone.
