Pet care experience
I'm that person who always stops a dog on their walk to ask their owners if I can pet them. I grew up with any animal my dad would allow. Ranging from a bearded dragon, rats to a Great Dane. The two cats I have now aren't enough animal love in my life. I'd never tell them that though. Ha. I've worked at Club K9, Sunset Veternary clinic and volunteered at the human society. Recently, I've volunteered at Portlandia Dog Rescue. With my gracious vibe and experience, I can train your puppy or help tame your beast with a run :). Animals truly give me a peace of mind that unconditional love exsists. They completely understand how much love we have to give and will always return the affection. Though, when times get hard your dog may take on those emotions just as people do. That's why I am here to make your life a little easier when times get a little sticky. The more details I know about your dog the better we'll interact! If you have any other questions please ask, thank you!!
Reviews
Kimberly is awesome! We had a super last minute request and she was able to assist. Great communication. Highly recommend.
Kimberly did a fantastic job walking and caring for my dog, Charlie, over the holidays while I was out of town. Charlie's a bit shy and afraid of people and many things outside, but Kimberly took the time to warm up to him and comfort him when he got shy. She stuck around to play with him and keep him company if he wanted a short walk, and gave me plenty of pupdates about how he was doing. She was super kind and professional. I look forward to having her spend more time with Charlie in the future!
Kimberly did a great job house-sitting and taking care of our 2 dogs and 2 cats. We have a slightly complicated pet set-up, since our 2 cats don't get along and are kept separated, only 1 of the cats mixes with the dogs, and one of the dogs has a lot of "stranger danger" anxiety, that shows up as aggression. She seemed to keep all the various instructions for each pet and pet category in mind. On the first meet and greet, Kimberly was clearly aware of how to minimize being viewed as a threat and to start building trust with our dog who is more problematic (but a love once you know him). She kept my husband and I updated frequently with pictures and just, well, updates. When we got home after the long weekend, the house was still in great shape. We appreciate that she cleaned up after herself as well. Most of all, though, the pets were obviously well taken care of.
Kimmie is simply the best person, and exactly the right fit for Dany. She's kind and enthusiastic. She did exactly what she said she would. Dany was clearly very happy to be taken care of by her. Would recommend again and again.

Information Kimberly T. would like to know about your pet
I love small Chihuahuas just as much as I love Great Danes. I'd like to know the cues the owners use to make our walks or runs easier for us. Are they good with other animals or kids? How long have you had him/her? If they're adopted or an older dog, do they have any triggers? Do they like walks or playing catch more?
A typical day
We can go on a hike or play catch at a local dog park. If they like their routine we can stick with that. Whatever the owner prefers.
