Buster's Pet Care
Hi, my name is Kim and this is my dream job. Animals have been a huge part of my whole life. We got our first puppy, a GSD named Buster, when I was 3 years old. He was an incredibly good boi and we were blessed to have him for 17 years! We always had cats, then when I was a teenager we had a little mini farm-- rabbits, chickens, geese, ducks, peacocks, cats and dogs. I am compassionate towards all types of animals. I have worked as a kennel tech at a greyhound adoption center for 12 years and counting so I am very comfortable with medication administration, cleaning, and first aid. I have extensive experience with pets that are shy and require some more quiet patience as well as those that are more reactive. I take my work very seriously and I pride myself on my reliability and dedication to my clients. My clients are my family and I’ll take care of your beloved pet as if they were my own.
I started my work as a professional pet sitter on Rover in 2016 and I began my own independent business in 2019. I am Licensed, Insured and Pet CPR/First Aid certified. My husband and I have a lovely 3 year old greyhound named Candy, a gentle 4 year old greyhound named Cooper, a chill 16 year old kitty named Connor, and a well-trained 9 year old human son. Please reach out and message me if you think I may be a good fit for you!
We call Lake Stevens home but I service a wide area including: Marysville, Lake Stevens, Snohomish, Everett, Mill Creek, Lynnwood, Edmonds and Bothell.

Boarding
Avoid the kennels, we will be your pet's home away from home! We do our best to replicate your home environment. Pets are allowed on the furniture in our home, but we have lots of beds scattered everywhere if you have different rules, we can accommodate! :) We have a fully fenced yard with a 6 foot tall fence. My rate covers all care required in 24 hours. If your pup needs or enjoys walks, I love to get them out. If they would just like to lounge and snuggle, that is great too! I have a very friendly greyhound, an older gentleman kitty and a well-trained 8 year old son so any boarders are required to be dog, cat and kid safe.

Testimonials
"Kim is kind and patient with dogs. Definitely an animal lover. Kim walked our dog Sophie many years ago for a few months before she passed due to cancer. Kim was so kind and made a huge impression on us. Kim made the passing of Sophie more tolerable, knowing Sophie was in good hands during her last days. 4+ years later, we were ready to get a puppy and was glad that we were able to find Kim again! Our puppy Poncho was quite a bit to handle and we're very appreciative of Kim putting up with him frankly. Poncho is much better behaved now thankfully! It's great to have a kind person that you can trust your furry animals with!"

"Kim was such an amazing person to work with during the time I lived in Seattle; my cats and I always felt comfortable with her and it was hard moving to a new state, knowing I'd have to find a new pet sitter. Highly recommend Kim for any pet care!"
