Dogs are like children just wanting to be loved. If your dog enjoys walks, that would be awesome as I like to walk the trails now that the weather is breaking.

Information Kimberly S. would like to know about your pet

Providing me ahead of your dog’s scheduled stay is always recommended to make sure I can give them the best care. Sharing their daily routine and feeding schedule. Knowing how they behave around other dogs or new people, what their energy level is like, and if they have any fears or triggers, like loud noises. It’s also helpful to know what commands they know, how they walk on a leash, and whether they’re crate-trained or have any house rules. The more I know, the better I can make them feel at home and stick to what they’re used to.

A typical day

I like to match the activities to each pet’s personality and energy level. Dogs, I enjoy going on walks and tossing a ball. For more energetic pups, we might do longer walks or visit a dog park if the owner allows it or just sitting with them if they prefer quiet companionship. My goal is to make sure every pet feels loved, engaged and comfortable.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs/puppies since I was a kid myself. My family grew up on dogs, from Dobermans, German Shepherd to Shih Tzu. They’re all lovable.

Kimberly once again came through when my flight was delayed and I was unable to get back on time. She kept Camden for an extra night last minute, making the trip a lot smoother for me! Camden came back exhausted from what was evidently an exciting 2 days for him.

Kimberly was great! Helped me out last minute right before a work trip and took great care of my pup. He seemed to really enjoy his time with her!
