Pet care experience

Full time fur baby spoiling

I have been with Rover for over 9 years, but have been a pet sitter for decades and have additional references, if needed! 💜🐾 I am a retired teacher/coach and have worked at a veterinarian‘s office helping large and small animals. I am a dog lover and believe in treating them all as a part of my family. I am a foster for homeless babies and help with transporting fosters to new homes. I only use crates (if needed) when I have to be gone and the pups cannot accompany me due to weather conditions. I am a substitute teacher most school days and a full time pet parent to 2 Schnauzers. All dogs have free rein of the home and fenced back yard. I am very flexible and know well in advance of times I will be out-of-town for grandkids’ activities. Would love to have repeat guests and will provide much individual care if separation anxiety is a factor with your fur baby. Thanks for checking me out.

Kim was able to take my two dogs on short notice, which was very appreciated. She was great with communication and my dogs loved being at her home!

Kim was really great with our dog. She was very communicative and took such good care of him. We also loved that she sent pictures of him to show us how he was doing. We hope to book with Kim again soon.

Safety, trust & environment

Pets in my home are just part of the family and go along with the same routine for feeding, restroom breaks and play as my own. Puppies or special needs babies get whatever care and timeline they need.

A typical day

Play time inside or out depending on the weather. I love to involve all the dogs if they’re able and willing. We also go to Cico Park or Wildcat Creek once a day for longer walks if everybody does well on a leash.

I think this is absolutely important so I have a little idea of their routine and any special personality characteristics that need to be taken into account such as separation anxiety or medical conditions.
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.
