A ruff life on the farm

Pet care experience

I have taken care of animals my whole life. I am the owner of a horse farm with dogs ,cats & a rescued goat. I was a volunteer at volunteer services for animals for over 10 years. I have helped to place many animals in loving homes. I have excellent references from both large and small animal vets. I am experienced and comfortable medicating ,liquid & pill form and also doing subq & IM injections. My day starts early with my two dogs and helping with the horse farm. I am home all day ,everyday, which allows me plenty of time to play with all my animals.My farm is a popular place,so booking in advance is recommended.I am available for either Drop off or Pick up from either 8:45-10AM OR 4:45-6 PM to accommodate our furry friends. I live on a quiet ,private road , which opens up to what looks like and now has a mini dog park. There is also plenty of space to free run ,if appropriate to the individual dog.Also,daily dog hikes to local hiking trails .If your furry friend puts their paw up to that,they can relax in my home where my rescued Maltese prefers.

Kim was great. She sent updates with pictures of Hope while we were away. Her property gave Hope the freedom she needed and set up perfectly for a boarding business. I would recommend Kim to anyone and I will definitely send my dogs there in the future. Thanks Kim!

We’re so lucky to have found Kim as our regular dog sitter— Darcy always comes home tired from the farm and loves having all the friends to play with. Really appreciate the last minute flexibility!

Our dog Jack loved running around Kim’ farm. Kim is so professional and you can see how much she loves the dogs.
