Highlights
Pet care experience
Cat Mom and Dog Lover
I've been taking care of animals since I was a kid, but I had my first dog 19 years ago. I am very comfortable scooping poo, litterboxes, cleaning up vomit, and checking for abnormal bowel movements and eating habits that may be from stress while you're gone. I'm great at reading a dog and cat's body language, so I am patient about letting them control the speed at which we get to know each other. I love going for walks, and am used to handling dogs on leash that may get reactive to people, dogs, cars, etc. I've worked with horses in the past, so I can handle a large animal getting excited. Most importantly, I want your dog or cat to have fun! let's play!

Safety, trust & environment
I will ask where your pets favorite safe spaces are in their home, where they like to hide, where they're favorite treats and toys are. If your dog just needs to romp in their backyard, I'll follow whatever your home procedure is if they need to be cleaned up after or not. I'll also keep an eye out for indicators of stress: vomit, accidents inside the home or outside the litterbox, scratches or bites on furniture, destroyed toys, etc.
Ratings and reviews
Kim was able to bring my shy cat out of hiding for some belly rubs and companionship.
Kim was excellent! This was the first time she was caring for our cat Eowyn and she did an amazing job. First she planned to visit us a few days prior to the cat sitting to understand all our needs and home details. She gave us detailed updates and (excellent!) photos every time she came over for Eowyn to keep us fully informed when we were gone. Eowyn was clearly very happy with her (she can be a shy cat). We are very thankful that Kim was able to sit Eowyn and would 100% recommend her.
Kim watched our two cats over the weekend and was awesome. She came highly recommended and was very thorough during the intro visit to go through everything and was very communicative about how each visit went. Highly recommend Kim to anyone looking for a petsitter :)
Kimberly is great! She was so communicative and timely. She was great with our ca, played with him, took notes and photos. Highly recommended.
Kimberly is very sweet & conscientious. I’d employ her again in a New York minute!
