Information Kimiko A. would like to know about your pet

Let me know any special needs or quirks your dog may have in advance so I can make sure to accommodate them. Examples- food allergies, food or treat aggressive, resource guarding, potty trained, ect, are all good things for me to know in advance. I prefer dogs under 20 pounds but have boarded and cared for dogs in the 40 pound range that are friendly to smaller dogs. If needed, I can keep your dog separated from mine.

A typical day

Activities are tailored to the dogs needs. Walks to Fauntleroy Park, Lincoln Park, around the block, all depends ? My 2 younger dogs love to play with other dogs in the yard and all dogs get plenty of snuggle time if they so choose. Lots of stuffies, and squeaky toys available for the dogs to choose from as well.

Fauntleroy Doggie Oasis

Pet care experience

*Please, no dogs over 25 pounds. I'm a dog lover with many years of experience caring for my personal dogs along with fostering for numerous rescue organizations over the years. I've cared for puppies, seniors, hospice dogs and extremely scared dogs. My house and yard are completely dog friendly and escape proof. I have 2 seniors ( Chihuahua & Papillion) and 2 young playful dogs ( Mixed breeds 14 pounds & 18 pounds) who absolutely love other dogs. My dogs are good about reading other dogs and will leave others alone if they aren't interested in interacting. I'm able to keep your dog in a separate area away from my dogs if needed. I have plenty of xpens to create whatever space is needed. ( My most recent foster dogs were 3, 8 week old puppies)

Kimiko was very easy to work with, her response time with perfect. She sent us wonderful photos of our pup having a good time with the other pups! Will use her again in the future, no question!

Zoe stayed with Kimiko for over 2 weeks while we traveled internationally. As per her previous stays, Zoe had a great time, was well taken care of, and Kimiko had great communication and updates throughout our entire time away.

My dog is always excited when I drop her off and I love the updates. So glad I found such a loving and responsible boarder.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
