Highlights
Pet care experience
Furry family member!
I lived on the farm for 16 years which we raised several types of dogs ranging from a miniature poodle name Benji to a black lab named Bear. We had several cats, some of them were called Barn cats and they would just stay in the barn and catch the mice or any other little creatures that would roam around! Once in awhile I would sneak in a kitty and make sure they were out of the house before my dad got up! I always felt bad for them sleeping outside. One of my first dogs as an adult was a Rottweiler named keela. She was so smart she wouldn't let the kids out of her side. When she got pregnant she had a hard time giving birth. I remember watching a movie 101 Dalmatians and one of the puppies wasn't breathing and he used a technique on the throat. That actually works. I had the vet on the line and he talked me through helping her give birth. That was one of these scariest most exciting moments owning a pet! I used to train our puppies on the farm the basics. They were so easy since treats or a puppy's best friend! My furry granddaughter moved out recently with her mom and her name is Bella. I get her on weekends sometimes like any other grandparent gets their grand child. I have doggy sat / house sat for one family for the past five to six years when needed. Ella is always excited to see me as I am always excited to see her! I believe that are pets are just like our children. They need our unconditional love, attention, patience, and understanding. Our pets can not talk to us so we need to make sure that we understand their language when they're not feeling well or when they're anxious or stressed out. I will treat your family member just like I treat my own. I now have a new addiction to the family. Her name is Luna. She is a 9month old tabby that I adopted Halloween night last year!! She was 8 weeks old and boy is she a character.

Ratings and reviews
Kimberley was great with communication and took great care of the cats. Would definitely book her again!
Kim was amazing and communicative! She was also sooo understanding + flexible when my flight home got delayed.
Kimberly was very sweet and loving with our dogs!
Kimberly was absolutely amazing! we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She sent daily updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, and her personality really shines through, she’s warm, funny, and genuinely kind. It’s clear how much she truly cares about the dogs. Roku and Toki were so well loved and cared for, and she went above and beyond not just with them but with our home too. She even rolled out the trash for us, which was such a thoughtful touch. Roku can be a bit difficult on walks and tends to pull, but Kimberly handled him so patiently and confidently. That really meant a lot to us knowing he was in capable hands. We would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone attentive, responsible, and genuinely caring.
Kimberly handled the pups super well! She did a great job walking both of them and was super attentive to Roku who can be difficult to catch at the dog park.
Kimberly was excellent – very caring for our old dog, very responsible and responsive, and left our house better than she found it. We will definitely be using her again – in fact, I just booked her from another trip! Strongly recommend.

Schedule
Right now, I have an open schedule. So anytime would be great to hang out with some fur babies. Being with your babies would be a blessing to enjoy.

Safety, trust & environment
Every morning we get up and have breakfast pour fresh water in her fountain. I allow her to go outside on the balcony for a bit while i am out there tending to my plants. we then go and empty her litter box in the morning so we can have clean litter for the day. I am trying to harness train her so if she wants some day we can go on a walk. we come back in, and we will play with some toys or the laser. then it is treat time. by then she takes a nap. this is how i take care of my pet. your pet would get the same treatment.

A typical day
If your pet enjoys other pets company there is a gated dog park in Mountain View that has turf if you prefer your dog not to get dirty! There is also a dog park in Palo Alto that we sometimes go to. If your dog enjoys going to the beach I would more than happy to take him/her to the beach. We can toss a ball or play tug-o-war whatever your pet loves to do.
