I do now have a fenced yard, but I enjoy walks with your pets, playtime, and snuggles, i do not crate my kitten, nor most of my grooming clients dogs, I can crate your pet if you like. Your pet would have my undivided attention. For this reason i can only take around two at a time depending on personalities. Unless from the same household and then i would try to accommodate your needs. Also your pets need to be up to date on their vaccines, and please have them on a flea product, (daily boarding rates will vary at time of booking depending on your dogs size. Large dogs and giant breed dogs are usually 50.00 per 24 hrs stay or $12.00 more a day than the price listed in each catagory.

Pet care experience

If you have a large or giant breed pet, your pet sitting prices for boarding and all other services will be a bit more expensive than my average price listed at the time of your booking. Please ask, and i will let you know. I was raised farming and caring for every animal imaginable, it is my passion and as a lifelong master groomer and veterinary technician. Grooming pets is my art form. I have raised and shown many breeds of dogs, and groomed several for shows such as westminster etc for clients. I have housesat and cared for different types of pets you name it. I can help you with a well deserved get away.

Kim was a wonderful sitter! She went above and beyond. Our girls were happy with her and we got regular updates and pics. Highly recommend.

Wow!! Could not be any happier. Miss Kim went “above & beyond” in every aspect of caring for our 8 Mo old Basset for a week. She is a true dog whisperer. Gave us some good advice as well due to her experience. Will definitely look her up in the future. Mac was super happy, super clean and had a great week. We used a kennel in the past and it didn’t work out so well. Thank you so very much.
