About: I have been around all types of pets my entire life. I’ve taken care of dogs from Newfoundland’s to chihuahuas. I’m great with pets and have been responsible for cleaning, feeding, walking, and playing with lots and lots of dogs. I am a big animal person and want to do something with it in the future. In my childhood I would go to my aunts house often to take care of her 5 Newfoundland’s and bulldog. I would take my sisters chihuahua to the mountains of Colorado. Every nearby neighborhood I grew up by as a child knew me for my exceptional dog care and would want me to walk and dog sit for them all the time. It comes natural for someone when it is what they really love to do. I am currently self employed so I can make time or move my schedule around to accommodate your pets schedule needs. Open availability for right now. I give my cat lots of love and affection. I also take care of proper feeding and cleaning. Lots of experience feeding and walking dogs as well.

“Wonderful dog walkers. Pat was critical to helping me successfully interview for a job (including full days of Zoom) without whiny dogs in the background and was highly responsive and flexible in scheduling. We are looking forward to boarding our dogs with them and only wish they had greater availability (but of course, top dog walkers/boarders are busy!).”

15. Kim O.
About: Hello! My name is Kimberly, you can call me Kim. I started this journey of watching owners furry/non-furry babies when I was 12 years old, making flyers for my neighbors to watch their dogs/cats/reptiles. That developed into me fostering dogs/cats for a couple different rescues. One of the adopters needed a pet sitter and trusted me as the foster mom, I accepted. Since then I have learned and grown so much. Along with pet sitting, I have worked at a zoo, kennels, horse barns, shelters, a cat rescue, and a grooming salon. I’ve got a bit of knowledge for many species of animals, ages, breeds, sizes. I won’t say I’ve seen it all but I have seen a lot! My whole life has been animals, you can ask anyone who’s met me, I am the go to family member, friend for watching pets! Now 16 years later I am still at it and love it more than anything! Learning new things everyday. As mentioned above, I take care of all types of animals: dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, small animals, fish, livestock, you name it! I can guarantee I have experience with whatever pet you need help with. If it’s a rare pet I don’t happen to know; I am a fast learner, committed and up to the task! While the safety and well being of your pets is my main concern. I like to pride myself in keeping the house clean, or cleaner than you left it. I keep to myself and my animals(yes I will consider your babies like my own). Making sure the animals are happy and cared for is my main priority. A typical day for me is getting up letting out the dogs, feeding everybody, clean what needs cleaning, then get myself ready. There is always a midday potty break/playtime. Late afternoon/evening time another potty break, dinner and lastly one more potty break before bedtime! My goal is to keep your pets schedule as close to what you do for them. So please don’t hesitate to give me as many details as you want!! Updates/pictures daily, also as requested. Can send videos as well. I try my best to accommodate to you and your pets needs! You shouldn’t have to worry about your family at home while you are away! Let me introduce you to my little zoo! I have two dogs Spencer and Ivy. Both spayed females. Spencer is a 13 year old shepherd mix. Ivy is an 8 year old border collie/aussie mix. One cat named Jazmyn, she’s a 14 year old calico. Two ferrets named Timon and Pumbaa! Both males and about a year old. If you know anything about ferrets one is a sable, the other is a chocolate mitt. Last but certainly not least! MoMo is my Red-Tailed Boa Constrictor, about 4 1/2ft long and he’s around 3 years old. Ferrets and snake are both confined to their areas with no chance of escaping. My experience includes the following: administering medications, senior pets, special needs pets, reactive animals, exotics Pet sitting is my full time job! I have care for my animals while I am away taking care of your pets. For overnights which is my main gig; sleeping overnight so your animals aren’t alone. Doing the morning routine, nightly routine and in between daytime care. It is not a 24/7 care service but I do spend the majority of my time with your animals. Only leaving for other clients animals/errands 1-6 hrs max., in a day. Of course this can change depending on your pets level of needs! For house sitting in your home I like to keep your pets routine as close to normal as possible. Meaning feeding schedules, special treats, walks, backyard playtime, medications, etc.
