I’ve taken care of pets with special needs such as diabetes and paralysis. Please let me know of any special accommodations needed to make your pet feel safe and comfortable.

I believe that enrichment is very important to pet care. I like to do puzzles or other sniffing games as well as physical exercise. A tired dog is a good dog!

Experience you can trust!

Pet care experience

I am in the externship portion of completing my professional dog training certification. I am passionate about the human/canine bond and have experience with most breeds, ages, and temperaments of dogs. I’ve spent time walking dogs for a company, on my own, in a shelter environment, and working in doggy daycare. I love to bond with dogs and learn what makes them feel safe and loved.

Kim is the absolute best! When I adopted my dog, Kitty, she immediately jumped at the chance to help take care of her. My dog loves Kim! Kitty and Kim are best friends. Kim even took care of her for a few days when I was on vacation. My dog is a senior and has some medical issues, and Kim was great at making sure she got all of her medication when necessary and knows how to work with senior dogs. We cannot recommend Kim enough!!
