DSP to Canine Obedience Trainer

Pet care experience

I am a certified, professional canine obedience trainer and have two fur babies who are my world and they have taught me that there is no greater gift than that of an animal who trusts you to be the best you that you can be in every aspect of your life. Without balance, there can be no peace. I am an avid and experienced sitter who is dedicated to delivering the utmost quality of care to all clients, furry and human alike. I have pet sat for many family members and family friends as well as a number of Rover and private clients. I require meet and greets so that I can answer any questions and or demonstrate my services as well as discuss what may need to be done before, during and after care provided as well as any extracurricular services such as plant care, garbage removal, mail collection and light housework depending on the length of the stay. All is doable so you can be confident that I am the right choice for you, your beloved family members and your home.

Tucker LOVES to stay with Kim! In fact, on the drive home he told me she's "way more fun" and "much cooler" than me. She even sent us home with treats and snuck a toy in his bag! Long story short, if you're looking for a communicative, responsible, fun pet sitter, book Kim without hesitation. :)

Kimberly is great, we know our pup is taken care of and happy. We've had Kimberly watch OG two times now in her home, the only thing that holds me back from booking again is OG and all of her belongings come back with a very strong cigarette smoke odor.

Kimberly was great! We had just recently moved to the area and had someone back home in Seattle who we loved, Kimberly definitely filled her shoes and took great care of our OG bear. We would love to have her watch OG again in the future.

Safety, trust & environment

As an individual house sitter who works with both animals and people, it's important to understand that animals can pick up on how they and their environment are being treated just as people can. It is important to always be aware of how everyone (animals too!) expect themselves and their homes to be respected so I take great care in learning everyone individually. As a canine trainer, my aim is to respect the training regiment/schedule and expectations laid out to help our companions live their best life.

A typical day

My day with your furry family will start how yours does, and include any of their favorite activities such as walks, hikes, or trips to the local dog park (if allowed). And, your furry friends may learn a new trick while you're away!

Availability

My schedule includes but isn't limited to the hours of 6PM-7AM as I work outside and all across Denver. So rainy days will most definitely be spent lounging around with your furry family. Some days I may have other obligations however checking in with you and ensuring every furry companion is set and settled while you're away is my top priority.
