Pet care experience

I <3 dogs & the feeling is mutual!

Currently accepting walks, drop ins and housesitting. We are not taking boarding at this time. I have been pet-sitting and house-sitting since I was about 15 years old, right before I could drive. I love all kinds of animals, and when I started, my first client had two dachshund dogs, including one that was blind, a cat, and hamsters plus baby-sitting! Before I joined Rover, I dog sat a lot of my family and friend's dogs, just for fun. This has included watching their dogs for weeks, while they were on vacation. I now have been on the Rover platform for 7 years and I’m available full-time. I follow instructions well so if you have something extra that is needed, just let me know and should be able to do it! Some of the care I have provided for other dogs was administrating eye drops, giving oral medications (pills & liquid), and insulin and working with special needs dogs, blind, deaf, wheelchair bound and seniors. I also worked as a vet receptionist from May 2023-July 2024 to get more experience within the field and that has really added to my care and expertise. I also have extra help! My awesome, and caring boyfriend (of 10 years), who loves animals, to help out as needed since he works from home. I am a full time petsitter and my partner works from home so there is always somebody home to care 24/7 at our house. Our house is an open environment for the pups to explore like they would at home. We do not crate our guests unless you request it. My partner and I are there 24/7 to supervise.

I’m not sure that the sitter even walked my dog. I was away on a business trip and picked up my dog at the end of his stay, and immediately he had terrible accidents in the house when I was on work calls I’ve also never seen him so hungry in my life. I’m not sure if he was even fed. I would not recommend Kim.

We are repeat dog boarding clients. Kim is very responsive and follows instructions for feeding, grooming and giving meds to our dog. We also get frequent photo/video updates. Highly recommend!

No breed preferences. A plus is your dog must get along with other dogs, as I have a dorgi, Frijol, who is 9 years old.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
