About

Hello :) I am 47 year old happy and blessed Mum to an amazing, beautifully mannered, thoughtful, delightful, bright, fun... 9 year old girl, Lily. (We can happily co-sleep so only one double/queen bed is all we need.) We share our hearts and home with a joyful Golden Labrador and 2 gorgeous felines - Lily's Dad lives with and cares for our fur babies whilst we are away.

Lil and I had a fantastic 2017 on/off pet/house sitting and met many wonderful people and pets whilst homeschooling :D In 2018 we settled into a wonderful school again but will continue to pet/house sit when the right opportunities come along.

Lily and I bring with us warm natures, optimistic and joyful attitudes and a reverence for all life...except perhaps flies, ha ha ;) :D We are looking to connect with the right people for a mutually rewarding experience. We have a genuine desire to bring an atmosphere of happiness and harmony to your home and to provide your pets with all the love and care they want and need...and then probably a bit more. We will be as respectful of your home as we are of ours, e.g. turning lights/appliances off when not in use, security conscious, keeping things clean and tidy. Warm regards Kim :)

P.S. I am pretty handy around the house too. I can easily handle broken light bulbs or any other minor thing that can require attention in a home. I am no stranger to power tools and have a scroll saw, sander, mitre saw and dremel tool that I love to 'play' with. So please do not let the fact that I am not male or will not have a male with me put you off! ;) And just for your peace of mind, if ever the need would arise, we have family at home who wouldn't hesitate to help us out in any situation. They are animal lovers too! :D

We had Kim and Lil take care of our 2 dogs - a West Highland Terrier (5) and boisterous Kelpie/Blue Heeler (2) in Jan 18 and had a wonderful experience. Not only did we receive updates and photos whilst we were away but we had 2 very happy & contented pooches when we returned. Nothing was any trouble for them and Lil doted on them. Whilst we were away we realised we had the following weekend away and Kim and Lil were able to come back for the weekend. Our House was immaculate when we returned - I would highly recommend Kim and Lil and would love to have them back.

I found a 5 star house/cat sitter! When I was planning a 2 month trip overseas, finding a good sitter for my cat Minx ranked right up there with buying the plane tickets and booking apartments in Italy. I considered several people who sounded like they would fit the bill, but fate tapped me on the shoulder and led me to Kim, who came as a little package with her daughter Lily. A few emails and photos were shared, and I just felt comfortable with choosing Kim. It proved a very good decision. While I was away, Kim sent frequent photos and reports on Minx, who obviously was very content with the arrangements for her care. Fate stepped in again, in the form of an accident in my apartment in Naples, which brought me (and a fractured elbow and humerus) back for surgery after only 3 weeks in Italy. Kim continued to look after my home while I spent a couple of weeks with my son and daughter in law. She drove me to post-op appointments when my family wasn't available, which was much appreciated. When I was able to return home, it was to a sparkling clean house, a very healthy cat, a lovely bouquet of flowers and basics of life in the fridge, including delicious pumpkin soup in the freezer. Kim was well liked by my neighbours, and she and Lily had soon gathered a group of friends in the town. All in all, I was very impressed with Kim's mature approach to the responsibility of house/pet sitting. I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone looking for someone with whom they can feel assured that a sterling job will be done.
