Information Kimberly E. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pup has any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of. For the safety and comfort of all pets, I’m unable to watch dogs that bark excessively, show aggression, or are not house trained. Thank you so much for your understanding!

A typical day

I’ll keep your pups happy and entertained with playtime and plenty of attention. I love giving pets one-on-one care to make sure every furry friend feels safe and loved while you’re away.

Important Policies & Reminders For the safety and well-being of all pets in my care, please ensure your dog is up to date on flea and tick prevention and has a current rabies vaccination prior to their stay. Please also make sure that your drop off and pick up times accurately match what is listed on your Rover reservation. Stays that extend beyond the 24-hour booking window may incur an additional charge, and correct times are required for insurance and coverage purposes. Lastly, please note that I have a strict 3-day cancellation policy. Thank you so much for your understanding and cooperation. I truly appreciate it and look forward to caring for your pup! Hi Pet Parents! I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, and I treat every dog in my care like part of the family. Your fur baby will receive plenty of love, attention, and supervision in a comfortable, safe, and welcoming home. For the most part, someone is always home, allowing me to provide attentive care throughout the day. If I need to step out briefly to run errands, it’s never for more than an hour or two. During those times, I ask that all dogs be crate trained for safety—this is a requirement, not a request. You’re welcome to bring your own crate, or I can provide one if needed. I offer overnight boarding seven days a week, including holidays. I have a secure fenced backyard, and all dogs sleep indoors. Your pup will enjoy plenty of playtime, socialization, and outdoor breaks throughout the day, rain or shine. For longer stays, I recommend adding a bath before pickup. With all the fun, outdoor time, and play your pup will enjoy, a little freshening up can make the transition home easier and give you one less thing to worry about after your trip.

It was Gracie’s first time with Kimberly and she was well taken cared of. We have received updates everyday too. Also, Kimberly is near us so it is very convenient. We will definitely book with her again in the future to look after our Baby Gracie.
