Pet care experience

Work from home FULL TIME ❤️

I grew up with animals my whole life so I have a natural affinity for all kinds of animals. I’ve spent the last 5+ years fostering rescue dogs, which means I’m comfortable with every type of energy level and breed — XS puppies to XL working dogs. I ONLY TAKE 1 BOOKING AT A TIME! So my books may fill quickly for boarding/daycare. ❤️ I currently have 2 very friendly boy dogs a husky (5 yrs) and a golden (2 yrs). They’re used to meeting new personalities since they’ve grown up around a rotating group of foster dogs so they’re patient, gentle and very well socialized. We’re an active household and love hikes, parks, long walks, and the beach. If your dog enjoys adventures they’re welcome to join! But if your pup is more of a homebody we’re just as happy lounging around together. I occasionally work with rescues so I’ll foster dogs/puppies when I don’t have any bookings so I have plenty of experience with different kinds of temperaments, reactivity, leash manners, potty training, socialization and puppies! I’m very confident reading dog body language and managing multi-dog households. I live in a 3 bedroom apartment so it’s pretty roomy and enough for your pup to have zoomies in here. I use one room for my work office. I also have a big balcony if your pups like to bird watch from the 2nd floor. Any specific instructions with your pup will always be respected and followed. I provide my own clean bowls, treats, crates, poop bags, and toys but feel free to bring your own if preferred. I have experience with most training tools like prong, martingale, slip leads, gentle leaders, haltis so I’m happy to continue any training you already have in place, just let me know beforehand.

Kimberly was a great first host for our energetic 1 year old Portuguese Water Dog! Her two dogs were very friendly and welcoming. Communication was great, we received a lot of great photos, and our teenager even came back a little more well behaved! Would highly recommend!!

Kimberly has been great with Milo. She occasionally watches him when my primary sitter isn’t available. She sends lots of photos and updates! Would recommend her to anyone who wants a quality sweet sitter.

Kimberly is so great. She has bailed us out several times on short notice, and always gives our anxious St. Bernard extra attention. We trust her completely with our animals

Prompt, responsive, and overall super accommodating to our needs. I had knee surgery and couldn’t walk the dog long distances. Kimberly helped me tremendously and Yogi took to her quickly. Thank you!

Kimberly is amazing! Our boy Scooby adores her. We never have to worry about him when he’s in her care and would highly recommend her.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m home full time studying/working. If I do ever leave the apartment I will be gone for only a couple of hours. I have cameras, crates if needed and baby gates all over the apartment so your dogs will never be alone with mine for safety reasons. I ensure to separate everyone and have them in a secure place where my cameras are watching every pup.

I would love to know in advance if your dog has separation anxiety. Sometimes I can work with it and sometimes I may not. Are they crate trained? Dog reactivity. How does your pup behave when they see other dogs on walks? Let me know what I can do to make your pet the most comfortable while you’re away.
