Animal Lover! Trustworthy & Caring

Pet care experience

Growing up, we had lots of pets, especially dogs and cats. My parents taught me to have respect, kindness and love for all animals. You can have peace of mind knowing I have over two decades of experience caring for and loving dogs and cats. Let me remove the worry of being away from your beloved animal friends. You can count on that I'll love and attend to your pets like they are my own babies. I have a calm demeanor, and I do prefer to care for dogs that are not jumpers or aggressive. I will not be able to walk dogs who are strong pullers. What I Love About Dogs, Cats, all Animals-- They are so intelligent, interesting and beautiful. Our lives are not complete without pets. If you will be away for more than just the day, your pets will benefit from extra care and attention in a full one-hour visit, and this is my recommended service. You are gone, and the hours slowly tick away while they await for your return. A one-hour visit may be required for multiple pets. Even if you have cats who are not interested in play-time, being brushed, or who hide, I can just sit and read out loud, as they find this very comforting. It will often make them come out of hiding. RATES: $19 - 30 minutes $24 - 45 minutes $29 - 60 minutes I have loads of experience with cats! I have volunteered for over 6 years at non-profit cat and animal rescues. They are special creatures who, for the most part, love human companionship. Interested in natural health and healing for your cats or changing to a raw diet? It is a specialty of mine and I offer a program to help your cat and you make the switch to a healthier carnivore diet.

Kim stopped in to care for my cat while I was out of town, and she was great! Very thorough and a good communicator. She took the time to play with him when she visited, and sent pictures. I felt very comfortable leaving him in her hands, and Kim will be my first pick the next time I need a cat sitter.

Kim is awesome!!! We love her (and so do our fur babies). She is very sweet and trustworthy. My animals all warmed up to her quickly and I could tell she really enjoyed caring for them. Kim provided me with daily updates so that I knew my cats and dogs were being loved and cared for when I was away. We will definitely request her services again in the future!

Kim has been pet sitting for our family for 2 years. She is amazing with our dog, Circe, a Jack Russell Terrier. Circe loves Kim and is always so excited to see her. Kim is a natural with animals and has a lot of love and compassion for her furry friends. We trust Kim 150% with Circe. I have so much peace in knowing that Circe is in good hands when we are away from home. Kim always leaves a note/text when she leaves with details of the visit. We are so thankful to have found such an awesome pet sitter!
