Dogs love me as much as I love them
Pet care experience
I live in Mesa, Arizona. My 2 year old son goes to preschool M-F so I have plenty of time all day to make visits and take dogs on walks. I am very active and can easily accommodate high energy dogs with hikes, trips to dog parks, and playing in a back yard. On the flip side if your dog just wants to have a belly rub for thirty minutes, I can do that too. Regardless I'll send photo updates to you as we have fun. ***I DO NOT provide boarding as my dog is dog-aggressive. I raised a German shepherd from puppy to adult, and I have plenty of experience taking in friends dogs for weekends and vacations. I adopted my deaf dog Burgh and am well-experienced with anxiety, dog aggression (she's dog aggressive at times) and how to safely manage the situation so no dog is too scary for me. I also grew up with cats and have plenty of experience taking care of them. **I do not charge for cat care if you are also booking me to take care of a dog** I'm aware everyone has different ideas of training and maintaining that training, and I will respect your wishes with how you would like your dog to be handled when they are with me. All I ask is that you let me know beforehand if your dog should or should not be allowed to do something or go somewhere, and if they should not be around other dogs or types of dogs. Allergy information would be wonderful too, as I don't want to carry treats that they cannot have (for instance my dog is allergic to chicken).
Reviews
Kim is amazing with my dog, Stella, who I'm afraid might love Kim more than me. Kim is prompt and reliable and sensitive to the fact that Stella doesn't always need a full 30 minute walk for exercise but needs companionship and interaction and love. You can tell that she really loves dogs and has a heart of gold and I would trust her to care for Stella any time.
I have known Kim for almost 2 decades now and she is one of the most reliable and responsible people I've ever met. She is a huge animal lover. Whether it's with her dog, Emma, or my previous dog, Suede, she's the first to join you on a walk. Kim has even taken her love for animals to the workplace. She helped create the website, AllPaws.com that works to get animals adopted. Kim always has a great attitude, and is very active. She is a perfect candidate to walk your fur baby.

Information Kimberly B. would like to know about your pet
I'd only want to know about any behavioral/allergy issues so i know what to feed them and what people/other dogs to stay away from. Please write out any instructions you have for your dog or cat upon my first visit so I know what expectations and rules are.
A typical day
I'm open to anything. I think dog parks are wonderful for socialization and making sure they get exercise. I also love hikes and just playing in a back yard or inside.
