Pet care experience
I've raised two wonderful Australian Shepherds in urban environments. I'd like to get to know your dog and help them enjoy their time at the park, or walk through the neighborhood. I've done several extended stays in house sitting situations: Labradors, Weimaraners, Dachshunds, Cavalier King Charles. (I watch cats too!) I am experienced in behavioral training, and always praise good behavior generously while discouraging pesky habits firmly but fairly. I look forward to getting to know your pooch, so we can have lots of fun. I also really love to photograph, so if you have any spots that your pup prefers I'll make sure to spend some time doing a pet portrait session. Photos taken during a Rover sit are totally complimentary and will be added to your Rover profile. :)
Reviews
Kimberly arrived right on time. She understood Roxie's needs (separation anxiety) and related well to her. Kimberly sent us photos even though we said that that was not necessary as we were not going to be gone all that long. (We hired Kimberly to stay for 4 hours while we were out for the evening.) Roxie seemed happy when we returned.
We feel so lucky to have found Kim! She was patient in getting to know our fearful and skittish rescue dog, Rosie, and did several walks for us before spending a long weekend with our pup. Kim sent updates and pictures throughout her stay. We came home to a clean house and a calm, happy dog!
Kimberly has been excellent with my dog, Cica! She gives her extra TLC as she’s overall pretty shy and fearful. I appreciate the frequent updates and photos and feel very safe with her taking care of my pup!
Kim took care of our senior pup for 4 days. We received daily updates with cute photos which made us calm when being so far away. Kim is very communicative, responsible, and professional. She took great care of the house and was very flexible in staying longer due to a miscommunication. We can highly recommend her!
