Experience: 7 yrs
Hi! My name is Kim, and I'm 45. Former nanny of 17 yrs turned house/pet sitter dog walker for 7 years now. I love animals. I treat the animals like I would a nanny charge. I talk to them, play with them, keep them safe, and make sure their needs are met. I'm also familiar with, and respectful of working in other peoples' houses. I'm experiencing with administering oral, topical, and otic medication. I have owned cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, guinea pig, birds and African frogs. I also am available as a dog walker! I have cared for cats and dogs while being a nanny over the course of 17 years, and while house sitting for those families when away on vacation. I can also bring in your mail and packages, take out garbage/recycling bins, water plants, etc. I don't do overnights at this time, however. I charge per visit, and spend min approx 45 min each visit. References available.

Kimberly was wonderful with our dogs! She was extremely responsive and up front about availability during the interview process. She came over to meet the dogs and wrote down all the pertinent details. She asked thoughtful questions regarding their care. During our time away, she made sure to update us with how the dogs were doing and clarify anything she needed help with. We would gladly hire her again, and our dogs seemed pleased at the end of the weekend.
