Sit, walk and tail wagging love!

Pet care experience

Whether you need a place to leave your pet during the day or for a few hours, someone to come to your house to give them a break throughout the day or in need of a house sitter while you are on vacation... You can rest easy knowing your pet will get tons of love, attention, exercise and enriching play time. I do not run, I walk fast, so if running is what they need, I could take car friendly pets up to the ballfield and let them run on a 100' leash. I am currently a foster for a few local animal shelters, have had basic dog training skills and have had pets for over 30 yrs. I live alone now that my children have grown and moved out. I have no children in the house, just a small Jack Chi named Kai. I love caring for animals and will make sure your pet gets all the love and affection they need. Doggy Daycare Your pet will get walks, bathroom breaks and lots of play time! I have dog enrichment toys for small and medium dogs and if they like water, they will stay cool in the summer with a 'dip' in the lake (Life jacket is requests for actual swimming). I would love the opportunity to care for and play with your pet while you work or if you just need someone for a few hours. I know how hard it is to leave your pet alone all day. I will make sure they get all the love, attention and enrichment throughout the day to keep them happy, healthy tail wagging pets. In home visits & dog walking I can also come to your home and feed your pet, take them out for a walk, and/or quality playtime while you are at work, gone for a weekend, or out of town on vacation. I am also available for house sitting on weekends. I am there for you and I make communication a priority.

Kim was great, professional and very flexible with dropping in for our two cats. I would recommend her for pet sitting.

She gave great advice, and worked with my tricky dog!

Information Kim R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what their average day looks like, how they interact with other pets, do they have medication, allergies or restrictions and if they are spaded/neutered and have shots are up date. I will also need the name and number of their vet.

A typical day

I have lots of dog enrichment toys to keep them engaged and happy. I also live on a lake and if they are water friendly, they will have a blast staying cool this summer. I like taking them for walks down a backroad next to my house, where there is no traffic, or if car friendly, walking down the Mountain Division Trail in Standish. I love playing chase or fetch with them, but I find tug of war seems to be the game of choice among most dogs. :-)
