Honest & Enthusiastic Dog Sitter :)

Pet care experience

I first began dog sitting/walking in 2010. Since then I have adopted two dogs of my own, Canela (7 years old) and Charlie (6 years old). I have fostered with Wolf Trap Animal Rescue, and done dog transports for Lu's Labs. Our two pups are the absolute sweetest and would love to meet a new friend who is ready to play. While staying with us, we treat your dog like our own. We only take on one client at a time to cut down on the stress of leaving their human family for a period of time and also provide them with plenty of one on one time.

My dog was clearly well cuddled and loved. Kimberly sent pictures and feedback to keep us updated.

Kimberly did an amazing job walking our dog, through cold rain and snow. She was also very communicative throughout the whole process, even with a quick booking. I was also pleasantly surprised how far her walks were, and she took good care of our dog. I would highly recommend Kimberly for future walks! Looking forward to the next time. :-)

Kimberly was wonderful with our dog, Carly. This was our first time leaving her with someone other than a family member. I asked her for a meet and greet before the stay and Kim was very accommodating. Carly was well cared for at Kimberly's home. Kimberly has two adorable little dogs, Charlie and Canela, which Carly enjoyed being with. Kimberly kept me updated with texts and photos of Carly during her stay. We were away at Christmas and Kimberly welcomed her into her home and even gave her a special Christmas present treat. We are very happy that we found Kimberly and will definitely request her to be our sitter when we need to be away in the future. I think Carly is missing her new little friends now that she is back home. I also wanted to mention that Kimberly responds in a very timely manner when contacted. It is good to know that we now have someone that we can trust with our beloved Carly.

Kim was awesome with my little Simba! She was very knowledgeable and made sure that all of my questions were answered prior to his stay, her dogs were very welcoming, and got along with Simba almost instantly, and she kept me updated with pictures throughout his stay. Simba got lots of play time, and Kim even went above and beyond by giving Simba doggie ice cream for his birthday. Needless to say, Simba had a ball, and made new best friends! We will definitely be visiting Kim and her dogs again!

Information Kimberly M. would like to know about your pet

- Is your dog house trained? - Any medications? - Do they get along with younger, energetic dogs? - Does your dog have any aggression? This can be food aggression, other animal aggression, people aggression, territory aggression, toy/object aggression, etc. - Does your dog have separation anxiety? - What is their feeding schedule, and do they have any restrictions or special needs? Are they allowed to have fruits and vegetables? Please note, I prefer small breed pups because we're in an condo. :)

A typical day

One on one attention - I never take on more than one client at a time; daily walks; "field trips" to local dog parks (with your permission); and plenty of love and cuddles! :)
