Pet care experience

My dogs are family not pets

I love animals. Pets are family, and they need just as much love and attention as humans do. My two dogs Lucy who is 7 and Charlie who is 12 are very well trained. Lucy does get excited when she meets new people and pets but after she gets some good sniffs in she settles down. They both have been around my grandkids all there lives and they have been around my children's pets both dogs and cats . All my pets have been well trained and well taken care of as well as being really spoiled.

Kym kept me updated of how my pet was doing through texts and pictures while I was out of town and she took really great care of my pet which put me at ease knowing my dog was safe and well cared for.

First time I used Rover, I was so grateful I didn’t have to board them with 100 barking dogs. I have just moved cross country with them (stress enough) so to find a home in my neighborhood was a blessing. They did have separation anxiety. Loved her big back yard for them.

Kym is the most caring animal owner I know. She takes very good care of every animal and really pays attention to what they need individually. Her genuine compassion shines through in every interaction with furry friends. Not only is her home impeccably clean, creating a comfortable environment for pets, but her skill in training is equally impressive. Kym's dedication to animal well-being is truly commendable, and I would highly recommend her.

Kym is very patient and passionate when it comes to animals. She watches my two dogs when I'm out of town and when she does I know they are in good hands. She keeps them on the same routine I would at home and they are just as happy when I pick them up as they were when I dropped them off.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced in yard. I would stay outside with your pet since they wouldn't be used to the yard. My house has two gates one separating mudroom dining area and the other separating the kitchen dining area . So if dogs need to be kept separate I am able to do so. I also have a small crate that I can use if need be. My dog Lucy is very playful Charlie is old and for the most part just watches and barks but sometimes he will decide to get up and play . My dogs as well as your dogs safety if my first priority. So if the dogs need to be kept in there separate areas I can do that and I would make sure to spend time with all the dogs individually .

I have a big yard and lots of toys. We can play fetch or play with the toys , or just go run around the yard outside .
