Highlights
Pet care experience
New graduate from Tufts University!
Hi! I’m Kim 😊 The first time I have learned to care for my pet was at 7 years old when my family rescued a sweet chihuahua. After that, I developed a personal connection with animals! I have owned 3 chihuahuas, 5 cats, and a rabbit. I have cared for a neighbor’s (back home in Texas) husky mutt named Boi, a beagle mix in college named Bodhi, and 3 bold Cairn terriers in New York. My method of care for pups is very adaptive. Each pup has a unique personality which means different love languages. I am very happy to provide constant pets, quality play time, and words of affirmation! I also have LOTS of experience with cats. I have owned 3 indoor and many other outdoor cats with my family for 10 years. I also took care of 2 senior cats on medication named Buttercup and Mr. Cuddles during college for 2 years. I love animals so much that I once found a lone ferret next to our track field in college and took the fur baby home with me to care for. Conveniently, I found a professor who fosters ferrets to take home with her! I have experience in puppy training, and have even been able to teach baby sign language. I speak English and Spanish fluently, sign American Sign Language, and currently learning Portuguese!

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
My dog Emily is obsessed with Kimberly! I never have to worry about anything when she’s in her care ❤️ She’s always great at communicating and very responsive. I highly recommend her for taking care of your pet!!
Kim was an amazing dog sitter, as always! She sent photos of Brady every day and consistently gave us updates throughout the entire stay. And when Brady was anxious from the July 4th fireworks, she made sure to let us know and ask us what we usually do with him. We completely trust Kim with our dog and he seems to always have a great time when he’s with her!
Kimberly is an outstanding host. She gives our dog so much attention and love. I always know he'll be very well taken care of when he's with her
Kimberly is the best & it’s evident that my dog absolutely loves her! She’s very reliable & communicative. I would highly recommend her. 😊
Kimberly is fantastic. She clearly really loves animals and I knew from the moment I met her that my dog would be well-looked-after. Every day she sent great photos, as well as little stories about what my pup had been up to. She really treated my dog with love ... he had a great time with her and came back to me a happy dog. I definitely hope to use Kimberly again in the future!
We felt very comfortable leaving our pup Lima with Kim for doggy daycare — Lima loved Kim right away and was well taken care of. Kim was flexible and accommodating with timing, and she provided multiple updates throughout the day which was appreciated. We look forward to having Kim watch our pup again in the future.

I am taking courses virtually in the afternoon for my Speech-Language pathology track. Other than that, I am very flexible and will give full attention to care, play, and assist fur babies! I am able to provide exercise, from low to high energy pets!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a fenced neighborhood, which is pet-friendly. I have taken care of fur babies in owner’s home given instruction and direction and will do so for you! I do not currently own any pets. I also have a really nice trail in my subdivision, by the water, palm trees, dog-friendly, and ideal to walk your pup during sundown.
A typical day
Depending on the dog’s personality, we would play a lot of games. I like to give sensory-filled walks where the pup can explore any smells around the neighborhood, a big green area. There is a gated play area suited for dogs to explore and play fetch in.
