Pet care experience

5 ⭐️ Pet Care 🐾

With a lifetime of hands-on experience — from tiny Malteses to giant Cane Corso Mastiffs — dogs have always been a central part of my life. That range of experience means I’m genuinely comfortable with any size, breed, or temperament that comes my way. For the past 10 years, my husband and I have been caring for pets together, earning an exclusive 5-star rating across every single review. We take pride in treating every dog like our own, with the attentiveness and love their owners expect. I work from home, which means your dog is never left alone for long stretches — I’m here, present, and attentive throughout the day. I also have my own vehicle and am happy to come directly to you, keeping your pet comfortable in their own environment and routine. Whether you need drop-in visits, overnight care, or just someone reliable and flexible to fill a gap — I’m here for it. I genuinely love what I do, and nothing makes me happier than giving pet parents real peace of mind while they’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety is my top priority from the very first interaction. Before any visit, I make sure to thoroughly review your pet’s unique personality, triggers, routines, and any medical or behavioral needs so I’m fully prepared from day one. When I’m in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I’d want for my own — all entry points are kept secured at all times and your pet is never left in an unsafe situation. With 10 years of experience handling animals of all sizes and temperaments, I’m calm, prepared, and know how to respond if something unexpected arises.

Kimberly was punctual and Finn loved her right away. She allowed us to have a relaxing time with no concerns.

Schedule

One of the biggest advantages of booking with me is that I work from home full time. That means your pet is never sitting alone waiting for someone to show up. I work weekdays and have plenty of time for walks, play, and affection throughout the day.

16 to 40 lbs

Kimberly can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
The more you share, the better I can care for them! A few things that help the most: • Feeding schedule, portions, and any dietary restrictions or allergies • Medications, supplements, or any ongoing health conditions • Behavioral quirks — are they shy, reactive, anxious, or extra social? • Their favorite toys, activities, or comfort items • Any words or commands they respond to • Vet contact information and your preferred emergency protocol • How they do with strangers and how long it typically takes them to warm up
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
