Pet care experience

Pawsitively awesome pet care 🐾

I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was a teenager (35+ years of experience). I have grown up with dogs and cats, and some call me the animal whisper. I live in a quiet neighborhood with many wooded trails perfect for dog walking. I have a fenced-in backyard that they can run around and play in. When your dogs stay with me, you can expect • Multiple walks per day • Daily brushing • All-day supervision • Frequent playtime • Frequent bathroom breaks • Plenty of treats • Lots of belly rubs • Unconditional love and affection I am retired, so your furbabies will have my full attention. However, I am happy to take last-minute bookings, so feel free to ask.

Kimberly is an absolute saint and a dog whisperer! I will never leave my fur babies with anyone else. She graciously took the time to have us over prior to the dogs’ stay to get to know her and her house. One of my dogs is not always great with others but she was quick to understand her behavior and reassured us of her capability to handle any issues. I received photos almost everyday as well as updates. One of my dogs has some ear issues and they started acting up while they were in her care and Kimberly was quick to double check on the ear drops we left just in case. I cannot say enough wonderful things!
