Highly rated ⭐️ dog mom & sitter!
Pet care experience
Use my code KIMV58279 for $20 off your first Rover booking! I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was very young - from pit bulls, chihuahuas, corgis, Dalmatians, to golden doodles. My ultimate goal is to make sure your pup/cat is comfortable and having tons of fun while you are away. I want them to feel like this is a second home for them and that he/she will be excited to come back. Added bonus - I also have a small pup that loves to play with other dogs (big and small) and would love to help tire out your pup so they aren't missing you too much :)
Reviews
Rex loves staying with Kim. It is always a great experience for him.
Kim did a great job taking care of my girlfriend’s ~8 year old maltipoo Bradley! He stayed with her for three days and two nights while we were out of town, and he had a great time based on the photos and videos that Kim sent me. We are especially thankful to Kim for the high level of care and attention that she gave to Bradley, since he is a bit of a sensitive and picky boy. Bradley has a specific routine and strict dietary needs, and Kim was very detailed in checking with us and making sure she was going about those particular items correctly. She made us feel very confident that Bradley would be taken care of. We were also presently surprised to see that he was getting along very well with Kim’s own dog, Leo. Bradley can be very aloof towards other dogs, but we received many pictures and videos of the two of them playing together and enjoying each other’s company. So while we were able to have a relaxing weekend away, Bradley was also able to make a friend! Fantastic, caring, and friendly service! I would recommend Kim to anyone looking for any level of dog-sitting/boarding.
Kim was quick to respond to my booking request and friendly and professional throughout all our interactions. She was very attentive to Lucky’s needs, checking in beforehand to make sure that she had all the info needed to make his doggy daycare stay a success. We appreciate the great service, and Lucky did great at her house for the day. Highly recommend!
My dog really enjoyed at Kim's place. Kim kept updated with pictures, but I hope she can take more pictures and videos on the status of our puppy.

I will make sure your pup is walked for at least 10 minutes every morning, has plenty to toys/play time with my pup if they are up for it, and a small training session with treats. I will make sure to watch over them and make sure they are safe in my home/enclosed yard while they are waiting for you to return. I will of course feed them according to your guidelines. Finally will take them on late afternoon walk to potty.

Information Kim V. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if there are any special needs that your pups needs or things I should be aware of. Separation anxiety? Fear of doorbells or vaccum sounds? Please let me know and I will make sure your dog is as comfortable as possible while in my care.
A typical day
I have a small dog that will keep your dog company. We have plenty to toys that will physically tire them, along with puzzles if they are interested in being mentally enriched. I always walk my clients around my neighborhood twice a day and will let them sniff around and enjoy themselves outside. When they are indoors they will enjoy couch time with me and watch tv as well :)

Availability
I work from home and I will be only be available from Friday to Sunday on the weekends for pet sitting/boarding. For returning clients, I am open to pet sitting/boarding on the weekdays, so feel free to message me personally about that. Whether your pet is an early bird or likes to sleep in, you can count on me to be awake by 8AM to make sure they are taken care of once they wake up from their slumber. My household will typically wind down around 10PM but this is totally flexible.
