🐾Care that aligns w/ your needs🐈‍

Pet care experience

My kindness and empathy translate to a gentle and patient approach for your fur baby, ensuring that pets feel safe and loved in my presence. My spiritual connection to animals attune me to their needs and emotions. I am skilled at reading body language and responding appropriately to avoid confrontations. My empathetic and spiritual approach combined with my love for animals may be the best option for your four-legged friend.

I was away for 4 days and Kimberly looked after my two dogs, Jake and Daisy. From the very first message her communication was perfect – she replied quickly, asked all the right questions before I left, and sent me daily updates with photos and little notes that made being away so much easier. Seeing Jake and Daisy lounging around the yard with her honestly made my day every time. When I got home, both dogs were calm, happy, and clearly thrilled with their time with Kimberly (Daisy even gave me the cold shoulder for a few minutes because she missed her new best friend!). The house was spotless, their routines were followed to a T, and it was obvious they’d been spoiled with love the entire time.

Kimberly was great! Very nice and good with both my dog and cat. She was also able to accommodate a check in that was booked the same day. Would definitely book with her again!
