Registered Vet Tech/ Zookeeper
Pet care experience
Hi there, I'm Kim and I'd love to care for your furry friends. I am a Registered Veterinary Technician, and former neonate wildlife care specialist with 15 years of experience, I specialized in hand-raising baby animals in the zoo nursery, and now work as a vet tech at an emergency vet hospital part-time while going back to school for nutrition. I have a degree in wildlife biology from UC Davis with an emphasis in Animal Behavior. I have three wonderful senior pets of my own, Minnie, Tipsy and Sundae. I am happy to assist with your pets care by walking, dropping in, or medication administration assistance. For med administration, feel free to book a drop in and I’d be happy to assist, I can help with any form of medication. I have expertise with alll species of animals and can care for all pets, so if you have pets other than dogs/cats, I am able to care for them Due to a recent shoulder injury, leash manners are kindly requested for walks. If your pup has a tendency to pull on the leash, I’d be happy to book a drop in with an outside potty break instead.

About Kimberly M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am respectful and cognizant of your home during my visits and I treat every pet with respect and love. I follow specific care instructions, down to every minor detail. If your pet prefers not to interact with the mere peasant entering their home, I don’t force interaction. My years and education in animal behavior have helped my hone my skills in caring for even the most difficult pet. I provide detailed accounts of my visits, as well as many photos to ease owners minds while they are away. My goal is to provide comfort to pets and owners during your time away from each other.

Please give a quick description of your pets personality, quirks, and preferences. How are they on a leash? How do they react to other animals? What is their current diet and any dietary limitations? Do they have a specific routine?
A typical day
From walks, play time, specific feeding routines, room to roam supervised in a fenced yard, treats and snuggles, I have your pets needs covered. I aim to engage your pet in play or provide enrichment to keep them entertained
