I'm a retired teacher so my schedule is pretty flexible. I do some regular volunteer work with cancer patients a few hours each week. I walk or hike daily and a furry companion would be welcome. It's one of the main reasons I signed up for Rover!

I am also now on Trusted Housesitters and have experience caring for pets in client's homes. I could have a pet in my home for short visits. I live near a lovely wooded trail that dogs LOVE.

Loving Care for Your Pets

Pet care experience

I have the most experience with various dog breeds young and old. More recently I have grown to also love and care for cats. Most of my full time experience has been with my personal dogs. Zoe, an Australian Shepard, was a shining light in my life for 14 years. Prior to Zoe I had Max, a sweet and gentle Rottweiler I was with for 6 years. For the past 4 years I've been spending a lot of time caring for the beloved pets and homes of my friends and family.

Km is an amazing animal lover. She cared for my terrier Posey and it was obvious she had been well cared for. Kim is a wonderful combination of animal lover and responsible human being who will respect your home and time.

Kim is a natural with animals. My dogs and cat love and trust her. They are always happy to see her. Kim is kind, caring, responsible and loving. I highly recommend Kim to be trusted with your pets. She checks all the boxes in what you and your pet need.

Finding responsible, reliable and loving pet care is rare and Kim is a complete gem! Our English bulldog is a high maintenance breed and not even trusted with all family members, but my husband is able to travel with zero stress anytime we are able to secure Kim to pet/house sit! She is super proactive and will problem solve and communicate anytime something amiss arises (like A/C going out or a leak in our sprinklers!) she manages multiple pets, including our bunnies and kept all houseplants and garden in optimal condition during her stays while managing to leave the house better than we left it!!

I'm Kim's brother in law & l know that she would be great being included with Rover. I've seen first hand how she took care of her dog Zoé over the years along with dog sitting for friends & relatives. She loves dogs & this would fill the void of her not having one at this time. She would be perfect for the position.
