Pet care experience

Snuggles and smiles guaranteed!

Hello! My name is Kimberly Saldate, I am 34 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 fairly 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.

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.

Kimberly always does a great job at taking care of Finn. She is patient with him on the first day as he can be shy, and is great at making him feel comfortable with her. She communicates well, and keeps me up to date on what Finn is doing, and anything going on at my home. I know Finn is in good hands when Kimberly is caring for him.

Please advise of any specific care requirements or things to note with your pet. Maybe something about them, their personality, things they do not like, etc. I will follow any set diet plan, regimen, etc you have. I will watch any breed.
