I am an early bird and dogs give me the best reason to start my day with a morning walk. I also enjoy the fact that having a pet at home makes me a homebody. ***I am currently helping an elderly couple about 4 hours, 2 days a week. Your furry friend will not be alone as my husband works from home, but I would like to let any future clients know this information*** Once a week I may go out on a date with my husband, so I really appreciate it when pets are okay by themselves for 2-3 hours. I am currently not boarding dogs for more than 7 days.

Information Kimberly L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know their diet and eating schedule. It would also be helpful to know where they like to sleep. Many owners bring beds but I find that most of their furry friends prefer sleeping on the couch. I would also like to know if they’re social and like to be around people of all ages. My husband and I love hosting and can make different arrangements if your pet is not stranger friendly. Please let me know if your pet has had any health issues in the past! That may include incontinence, anxiety, or stomach issues. I prefer being aware so that I can prepare my home for them(moving my rug and setting pads around) before they arrive. I have a few different sized crates if your pet prefers sleeping in a crate. ***If your pet tends to mark, they will be crated when I am out of the house***

A typical day

I like to make sure that your pet gets enough exercise. I will usually walk the pooch three times a day, and it’s about a 15 minute walk each time. I prefer to take the dog on my errands if possible. If the pet is an athletic dog he or she will accompany me on my runs at chollas lake or mission trails. If not, we can lounge on the couch.

Pet care experience

Your best friend will feel right at home at my place. My husband and I work from home and enjoy the company of “part time pets.” I love taking long walks with them or just hanging out in the couch if they’re low energy. ***I am currently helping an elderly couple about 4 hours, 2 days a week. Your furry friend will not be alone as my husband works from home, but I would like to let any future clients know this information***

My dog was so happy to see Kimberly again and it brought me a lot of peace to know that he sees her as a safe person. Her chill vibes are very much appreciated for my nervous little guy.

My dog was getting over an illness and has been on a lot of medications. I felt Kimberly was someone I could trust with that and also that my dog would respond positively to her. That turned out to be right on both counts. It says something about a person to be so caring about someone else’s pet.
