Pet care experience

pet whisperer at ♥️

Hi! ♥️ I grew up with about 4 cats and a cocker spaniel since I was about 8 years old, and have experience with taking care of pets with visual impairment or hearing loss. I have a soft and patient heart for elderly/senior pets after the passing of 3 of my own childhood pets— and I’m capable of caring for pets of any age/condition. My first two cats were bonded, and I’m super comfortable taking care of multiple pets at a time as well!! ~⁠♡ I also have some experience monitoring and taking care of kittens for friends :) As seen in the pictures above, I absolutely love taking silly pictures of pets and if requested am more than happy to take and send some alongside any updates or check-in’s :) Currently at home, we have one senior tortoise shell kitty and a Shiba Inu that I love greatly. I am currently only available for drop-ins and walks at this time. Im happy to adjust and adapt to any specific needs you have for your pets, and delighted to answer any questions ♡⸜(ˆᗜˆ˵ )⸝♡

Safety, trust & environment

I place high priority on making sure your fur baby is happy, safe, and comfortable. :) I recognize that each pet has their own unique personality and with this that requires varying kinds of care, and I strive to above and beyond to match that accordingly <3 I’m also SB native, specifically Goleta born and raised, and know the surrounding area well :)

Kimberly is a wonderful sitter. She took care of my cat and gave her plenty of attention. She handled all my concerns and was very communicative. My cat was very happy!

Kimberly did a great job watching my cat Willow! She provided regular and detailed updates (with pictures!) every day, and made sure that Willow was safe and comfortable while I was away.

Kimberly took amazing care of our kitten, Jack! She was very communicative with regular updates and photos and made sure he was comfortable while we were away. I highly recommend Kimberly - she is kind, trustworthy, and clearly loves animals.

I would love to know all about your pets! From what motivates them to what should be avoided, I’ll go above and beyond to care for them accordingly. Please let me know if your pets have any special needs or behavior/temperament issues in advance :-) Any extra info is always welcome, I’m here to make sure your pets are cared for just as you’ve always had it!
