Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Kimberly Saldate, I am 32 years old and I live in Irvine. I have been an animal lover since I can remember. My family always had 1-2 dogs and cats growing up. I used to rescue birds and dogs in elementary school. I have cared for dogs and cats of all ages and stages. I love them all equally and enjoy taking care of all their needs. If your dog is in the middle of training, I can make sure to enforce whatever it is you need to be enforced as well as providing the love & attention they need throughout the day. I am new to the app and would be honored for the chance to take care of your precious loved ones 🐶🐱 thank you for taking the time to read about me and I look forward to hearing from you.

Kimberly took care of our 4 kitties while we were out of town for a week. She came twice a day during the timeframe discussed and always communicated with us of any changes or updates. She was very good with the cats and fed them according to instructions. She also injected insulin for one of our senior cats and broke out any fights during her visits. Additionally, we let her know that some of our cats sometimes make a mess and may pee on the couch or random places and she made sure to always check around for us. We love her care for our kitties and her communication & attention to details. We highly recommend her and would definitely book with her again!

Kimberly was so great with my two big dogs. During the meet and greet my dogs already warmed up to her. While I was gone, she kept me updated and sent me photos. She stayed at the house majority of the time and kept the place clean. She will follow instructions and it seemed like my dogs had a good time with her. I would definitely use her again!

Safety, trust & environment

As a responsible and compassionate pet sitter, I prioritize the well-being and comfort of your pets in their own familiar environment. Here’s how I ensure their care while you're away: 1. **Feeding & Hydration:** I will follow your specific instructions regarding feeding times, portion sizes, and any special dietary needs. Fresh water is always provided. 2. **Exercise & Play:** Depending on your pet’s needs, I will provide daily walks, playtime, or other activities that keep them active, engaged, and happy. 3. **Comfort & Attention:** I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable, so I offer plenty of companionship and affection. I’m committed to following your pet’s routine and maintaining their environment as it was before you left. 4. **Health Monitoring:** I will keep a close eye on your pet’s health, looking for signs of any illness or discomfort, and will contact you immediately if any concerns arise. I can administer medication if necessary. 5. **Housekeeping:** I also ensure that your pet’s living area stays tidy. This includes cleaning up after meals, changing litter boxes, and keeping any pet-related messes in check. 6. **Security & Communication:** I’ll provide regular updates, including photos and videos, to let you know how your pet is doing. If necessary, I can take care of home security by locking doors, adjusting lights, or ensuring everything is safe while you’re away. By offering personalized, loving care for your pet, I ensure they feel safe, secure, and well-cared for until your return.

I work full time for a large supply chain company here in Irvine, but I work very early in the morning so I am off by 3:30pm every day. So my afternoon, evenings and weekends are completely open right now.
