Pet care fits naturally into my routine because animals are a top priority in my day-to-day life. I work in the office Tuesday through Thursday, but I make sure every pet in my care gets a walk or bathroom break first thing in the morning and again as soon as I get home. Most weekday evenings, I do step out for about an hour to go to the gym, but otherwise, I’m home and available for plenty of attention, playtime, and snuggles. I’m fully available Friday through Monday, which allows for a more flexible, hands-on schedule—perfect for pets that need extra attention or time outside. Whether it’s a relaxing weekend with a senior pup or a full-on playdate with an energetic cat or dog, I’m ready and excited to provide loving care tailored to their needs.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities—whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where routines are respected and every animal is treated like family. For dog stays, I’m lucky to have a green space and dog park just a 5-minute walk from my home, making potty breaks and playtime easy, safe, and consistent. I always use a secure leash and harness system and never take chances when it comes to your dog’s safety outdoors. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and committed to maintaining your pet’s routine exactly as you’ve outlined. I make sure they feel secure and seen—even the shy ones! Whether your pet needs medications, enrichment, or just some quiet companionship, you can count on me for thoughtful, attentive care. Clear communication, reliability, and trust are the foundation of how I work. I’ll keep you updated with notes and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is in safe, loving hands.

Information Kimberly P. would like to know about your pet
It’s important for me to know a few key things about your pet ahead of time so I can give them the best care possible! This includes their temperament, routines, any medications, and special needs. If they have any quirks—like being nervous around strangers, not being crate-trained, or being reactive on walks—just let me know! I also offer a dog wash service if needed, but I kindly ask that dogs are clean before they arrive at my home to keep the space fresh and comfortable for all pets and humans. Communication is key, and the more I know, the better I can care for your pet like one of my own!
A typical day
When I watch pets, I love to keep them happy, active, and feeling loved! Depending on their personality and energy level, I tailor activities to suit their needs. For dogs, this might include long walks, fetch in the park, puzzle toys, or even some light training games to keep their minds sharp. For cats, I enjoy play sessions with feather wands, laser pointers, or interactive toys, as well as plenty of cozy cuddle time if they’re into it. I also make sure to stick to their usual routine so they feel safe and comfortable. No matter the pet, I always aim to give them plenty of attention, affection, and fun while their humans are away!

Loving Care When You Can’t Be There
Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Kimberly! I’ve cared for animals my entire life—starting with family pets as a kid and continuing into adulthood. I’m that person who always stops to say hi to dogs on the street and offers treats to the neighbor’s pup. While now isn’t the right time for me to have a dog of my own, I’d love nothing more than to care for yours like family. What sets me apart from other sitters? It’s the genuine joy I get from spending time with animals, plus decades of hands-on experience. I’m comfortable with all kinds of dogs—puppies who need patience and training, seniors who need a gentle touch, and everything in between. Whether your pup needs active play, calm companionship, or special attention, I adapt to their personality and needs. I only care for one pet at a time, which means your dog gets my full attention, personalized care, and a stress-free environment that feels like home. My home is a calm, clean, and pet-friendly space, and I treat every dog like they’re my own—with lots of love, belly rubs, and safety first. You can count on timely updates, adorable photos, and honest communication every step of the way. Let’s give your dog their next favorite staycation!

Reviews
Kimberly took great care of my dog, followed all instructions, and kept me updated throughout. My dog got plenty of walks, attention, playtime, and love. I’d definitely book with her again!
Kimberly took such good care of Chippy while we were away on vacation! It really made our time away more enjoyable to know he was being so well cared for. We got regular updates and photos which were so great. We had such a good experience with Kimberly that we're already booking with her again. Thank you Kimberly!!
My pup loves Kimberly! She took great care of him for several days, sent regular updates and pics, and he came home a happy and healthy boi. I’m sure he’ll be excited to see her again.
Kim was great with Pepper and very understanding of his needs and quirks. I would recommend her to a friend.
