After early morning potty breaks, the dogs and I will eat our meals and play for awhile. I take the dogs out every 4-5 for a potty break and to sniff the flowers/bushes and light poles. I work at home full-time, so I'm able to provide all care for your pup. I'm not available for same day request, and require a two days notice for all bookings.

Information Kimberly W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know the personality of your dog (with humans and other dogs), level of training (commands, housebroken, crate trained), potty/walk schedule, and any specific needs. I am very flexible and want to make sure I am the best fit to care for your dog.

A typical day

My neighborhood has a dog park within walking distance. I also have a huge amount of dog toys to provide enrichment. I offer kongs when the dogs are tired and need to wind down. Other times, we head to the park to play hard.

Pet care experience

My name is Kimberly. I work at home full-time, and I've been around dogs and animals my entire life. I grew up on a farm and have been taking care of dogs and cats and training them since I was a kid with my dad. I would really love an occasional playmate for Holly who enjoys being outside, napping, and going to the dog park as much as she does. Holly is a sweet dog, gets along with all cats and dogs, is housebroken, and roams freely. When we are not outside playing, your dog can expect to spend time inside playing with Holly and all of her toys. Holly typically gets at least 3-4 potty breaks a day, at least 60 minutes of walking, and a trip to the dog park, weather permitting. I have plenty of space for another dog, and you are welcome to bring your crate, bed, blanket, etc., to make your dog comfortable. I offer a wide range of services and discounts to first-time customers; just be sure to mention it in your message, and I’ll take care of the discount. By choosing me, you’ll get the best, whether you need someone to watch your pet overnight or just visit. I guarantee to care for your pet as if it were my own and will cater to your pet’s needs. I can also administer medications and work with you on anything else that may be needed. I’m within walking distance to several dog parks and hiking trails in my neighborhood, so your pet is sure to get enough exercise. Let me take care of your pet, and you won’t have to worry about a thing. I’ll be sure to send lots of updates and pictures. Unfortunately, I cannot accommodate last minute in-house services for new clients. I'm not available for drop-off/pickup before 6:30 a.m. or after 9:30 p.m. Daycare is from 7 to 5:30.

Kimberly is exactly what we were looking for! She was not intimidated by our high energy dog. She took the time to understand him and meet his needs and even went above and beyond to work on skills with him! She was very responsive and provided plenty of updates. She asked great questions to get to know our dog and ensured she had everything she needed.

Kimberly was great! She took the time to make sure Otis was comfortable and not overstimulated. It was our first venture to attempt to socialize Otis with other dogs after he was bit. She made is feel at ease with his stay.
