Exceptional Care

Pet care experience

For 20+ years I have extensive experience caring for Domestic as well as a wide variety of Exotic species. As a wildlife center manager I have developed strong observational and critical thinking skills, with great attention to detail. I am well versed in supportive medical care, am able to handle issues that might arise calmly and effectively providing top-quality care for pets and a commitment to creating a positive and nurturing environment. As an animal care professional, I have demonstrated reliability, punctuality, and trustworthiness in fulfilling caregiving responsibilities for pets in the absence of their owners. I take pride in my ability to communicate effectively with pet owners to provide updates on their pets well-being and address any concerns or special requests. I have a special connection to animals and provide a fun, enriching, caring, and positive environment for all of the pets in my care.

Kimberly is a total gem! She took the time to connect, play, and make sure my pup felt comfortable and happy. She kept me updated with photos, thoughtful notes, and little details that showed she really pays attention. It gave me total peace of mind knowing my fur baby was in such kind and capable hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, professional, and genuinely caring, I can’t recommend Kimberly enough. My dog absolutely adores her—and so do I!

Kimberly was co-director of a wildlife education facility for over twenty years. Animals are naturally drawn to her love and understanding of them. She has expertise with a great number of domestic and exotic animals, especially those with medical needs. There is truly no better person to care for your animals.

I have entrusted my pets ( 1 dog and 1 cat) to Kimberly multiple times over the past year. Kimberly is incredibly detailed oriented, caring, responsible, kind, and professional. She truly cares about animals and follows whatever directions I ask of her. I trust her completely with my animals and it is a piece of mind for me knowing she is with them when I can be there for them.

I have had the pleasure of entrusting my pets to Kimberly on multiple occasions, and I couldn't be happier with the care they received. Kimberly is incredibly responsible, experienced, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. She goes above and beyond to meet their needs and is extremely passionate about animals. I highly recommend Kimberly to anyone looking for a dependable and compassionate pet caregiver.
