Pup in Paradise
Introduction
My name is Kim and I am a travel nurse and mom of four grown kids. When I am not working I travel with my kids to various places or just to visit them. I have one older dog who is most comfortable at home and sometimes leaving her at home with a sitter is less traumatic for her than boarding her. She recently, last November, lost her best life long friend who had very bad hip dysplasia. She is a loving friendly dog and I just don't want her to be lonely while I'm away. She is fine being left alone for several hours though. I have a large fenced in back yard, a lovely home in a lake neighborhood with a hot tub and garden. She loves walks and exploring new places.

Modest home in a neighborhood walking distance to a big lake with many things to do nearby. I have a large fenced in back yard with a beautiful garden and hot tub. My home has 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The house has strong fast internet and chromecast on the TV. The neighborhood has a pool, tennis courts, playground and boat ramp. My home is 1 hour 30 mins to Blowing Rock and 2 hours to Asheville. Great day trips!

My expectation of a sitter is to walk, feed and love my pups, respect my home, i.e keep it tidy and enjoy your time in this beautiful area.

Kims house was beautiful & had great energy. She greeted us when we arrived and showed us around the house. The house has a lots of amenities like a grill, fire pit, jacuzzi. There is lots to do around the area like hiking, restaurants, visiting Charlotte, and other outdoorsy adventures. Ginger and Koda are chill sweet dogs. We took them on walks and played. They were very easy going, just want love. We had no issues. We had the best time at Kim’s house, we will miss the doggies!

Kim was welcoming and thorough when I met her and the pups. The house was beautiful and the yard and neighborhood were quiet and peaceful. Koda and Ginger were great company for the weekend, liked to be near me in the house, and loved getting pets. I was lucky to have this opportunity for the weekend.

What a pleasure hanging out with Koda and Ginger for a couple of days. Both dogs are very friendly and easy-going. Koda just loves to have his ears scratched, and Ginger likes to be close to wherever you are. There is a beautiful short walk through the woods that Koda can still do on his wobbly legs and a longer walk through a nice wooded neighborhood where Ginger likes to sniff the daily dog gossip. Kim’s house and especially the backyard is a pure sanctuary.

Fabrizio and Catherine were wonderful 💕. They took excellent care of my older pups and sent updates with photos regularly. When I arrived home, my house was tidy, and pups seemed happy. I would definitely recommend them anytime as pups/house sitters.
