Reliable, nurturing animal lover!

Pet care experience

I have been blessed with family dogs for most of my life & recently rescued my own sweet fur baby. As a mother (& now dog mom), I know how important it is to find someone you trust to care for those you love most. I am deeply passionate about establishing trust & building meaningful relationships with both you and your pup!

Kirby is a wonderful, responsible pet sitter that goes above and beyond! My dog, Bella, is an older girl and she has a lot of anxiety. Kirby not only soothed Bella while I was away, but sent me the most heartwarming pictures during my trip and relieved my anxiety about having left Bel for so long. She took her on daily morning walks, took initiative in purchasing the proper food and even purchased treats to keep at her house for our next visit. Kirby has a clean, spacious home that is so welcoming for everyone- pets included. She allowed Bella to follow her typical house rules in that she was allowed to snuggle on the couch, etc. Kirby never left Bella alone for very long at all and when she did, I was notified and reassured that she had plenty of water and when Kirby would be back. I trust her 1000% and am so grateful that I found her. I can rest assured that Bel is not only safe and cared for, but getting the love and attention she needs while I’m away.

Kirby has grown up with and cared for dogs and cats all her life. She has tremendous love for all animals, literally rescuing worms off the sidewalk and feeding and talking to birds at rest stops! She is a sensitive, caring person who intuitively knows how to relate to pets. She has always been responsible when it comes to feeding, walking, and cleaning up after our pets and spends extra time playing and snuggling with them. She has a nurturing soul and would be a perfect and loving pet caregiver- I recommend her for this position wholeheartedly.

Information Kirby C. would like to know about your pet

Please share as much information about your dog as possible. It’s important that I know their medical history, allergies/sensitivities, likes/dislikes, behaviors around other animals, comfortability around other people (children included), daily routine, and anything else you feel will help me provide the safest, most suitable environment for your dog.

A typical day

** Currently not boarding or dog sitting, as I’m in the process of training my new pup! Hoping to offer this service again soon. My home is conveniently located near a variety of trails, parks and beaches so there won’t be a shortage of places to explore! While physical exercise is important, so is mental stimulation. They’ll be given lots of opportunities for brain training via toys, interactive games, training and more! When it’s time to relax, they’ll have lots of cozy places to choose from and an affectionate caregiver ready to shower them in love.
