The Guardian Touch

Hi! I’m Kimberly. For over 15 years, I’ve provided devoted care for my beloved pet clients — from gentle-giant Great Danes to tiny weenie dogs, fuzzy kitty cats to squeaky guinea pigs. Dogsitting was my first job! My favorite part is getting to know each fur baby’s unique personality and being their auntie for during the time I get to spend with them. I offer dog walks and drop-in visits, with a particular soft spot for big dogs, nervous dogs, and pets who need a little extra patience to feel comfortable with someone new. I’ve cared for everything from puppies who need help with their routines to large, anxious dogs who take some time to warm up—and I’m happy to meet each pet where they are. During a visit, my priority is making sure your pet gets more than just the basics. Depending on their routine, that might mean a good walk, playtime, enrichment, feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, or simply some calm companionship. I pay attention to their behavior and adjust to what they actually need that day. Communication is a big part of my care. I’ll keep you updated during visits and send photos so you can see how your pet is doing while you’re away. I also take your instructions very seriously and want you to feel confident that your pet is in good hands. I’m calm, attentive, dependable, and genuinely adore all animals. My goal is for your pet to look forward to seeing me—and for you to be able to leave home without worrying about them. ❤️ Think of me as your furbaby’s new auntie. My clients trust me not only as a walker and caregiver, but as someone who safeguards their pets’ comfort, safety, and happiness.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pets’ comfort and security are my highest priorities. I mirror the love, structure, and attention they know from you so they feel safe and at ease while you’re away. Many of the pets I care for experience anxiety or stress when their people are gone. I provide the calm presence, consistency, and reassurance they need to relax. From senior pets to high-energy pups, I adapt my approach to match their unique needs and personalities, always keeping their wellbeing front and center.

Kimberly was great with Eddie and Poppy . I would definitely recommend. Unfortunate Poppy had an upset stomach during some of the invest, and Kimberly did a wonderful job job taking care of her.

Kimberly was absolutely amazing with our dog- normally she’s very nervous with new situations, but Kimberly put her right at ease. She was so communicative and kind through the whole process. Can’t recommend her highly enough

Help me understand your pet’s special personality. What is their favorite toy? Where do they like to walk? Do they have specific triggers for anxiety or reactivity? Every animal is unique and it’s my goal to not only meet their needs but to enrich their day while you’re away.
