I'm Kymberly Traveler, American born and raised in Chicago, a world traveler, nomad, a mature 61 year old on a world tour. With over 40 years of work experience in both real estate and pet care, I bring a unique blend of expertise to my housesitting and petsitting services. As a seasoned real estate agent, dedicated animal lover and experienced pet sitter, I have combined my love for all three to accumulate over 60 x 5 star reviews across multiple trusted housesitting and petsitting platforms such as Rover and Trusted Housesitters, which I'll be happy to share. Clients often call me the "Pet whisperer" because of my natural ability to bond with animals - whether its offering a nurturing presence to newly adopted pets or ensuring their health and happiness during your absence. Pets that are normally shy or aloof often find themselves quickly warming to me and I have been known to have them curled up on my lap within minutes of meeting for the first time. I'm also a skilled Pet Doula specialising in pet delivery, administering medications and providing tailored care to support pets in need, especially those adjusting to new homes. I pride myself on offering the highest level of attention to detail, so you can rest assured your pets will receive all the love and care they deserve. When you return, your house will be spotless and your pet will be happy and healthy - just as you left them. Whether it's short term or long term care I am here to ensure your home and pets are well taken care of. Let's connect, and I'll be happy to provide the peace of mind you are looking for while you are away.

    My name is Brian. My wife and I have used Kymberly twice this year to stay in our apartment and sit for our cat Vance. The first sit was for 12 days and the second was four. We connected with her via the Trusted House Sitters website and have left reviews there for each of her sits should they be helpful to you. Our cat Vance is 17 years old, and while in good health for his age, is very social and does best with someone staying with him while we're away for extended periods. In short, Kymberly is a pet/house sitting professional and our experience with her for both of our sits was excellent! Prior to her first sit, Kymberly spent over an hour with us to meet Vance and was very engaging as to what expectations we had and the care that Vance required, which was greatly appreciated. While we were away on both sits, she provided multiple updates each day accompanied with photos and videos of Vance, and our apartment, to make sure we were kept up to date on how things were going. In addition, any time we reached out to her, she responded promptly to our questions. Upon returning home, we found our apartment to be as clean, if not cleaner, than we left it and Vance well cared for in our absence. She even sent a video showing Vance and the apartment before she left at the end of the sit so that there were no surprises when we walked in. I would highly recommend Kymberly for any pet/house sitting opportunity that you might have and look forward to using her again ourselves in the future. Sincerely, Brian Page

    I originally connected with Kymberly through Trusted Housesitters and was immediately impressed after our in-person interview in Chicago. She visited my home, admired my African art, and met my beloved pets—Cliff, Socks, and Mojito. Her first sit was for one week, and she exceeded all expectations. Her communication was stellar—sending regular photos and videos—and it was clear she genuinely cared for my pets. Because of her incredible care, I hired her again for a two-month housesit while I traveled to Europe. Kymberly is exceptionally efficient and professional. She sent me daily updates, including videos of feeding times and walks. When my sweet dog Cliff (who has since passed on to doggy heaven) experienced seizures, Kymberly rushed him to urgent care without hesitation and stayed in constant communication throughout. Her calm and capable presence was such a comfort. She left my home spotless—truly cleaner than when I left! Beyond being a phenomenal sitter, Kymberly has become a dear friend. We now keep in touch weekly, and I’ve even started hiring her through Rover as well. Someone of her caliber deserves to be compensated, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my pets or my home. I wholeheartedly recommend Kymberly and would hire her again in a heartbeat. Susan Warden

    Kimberley came to us as a last minute dog and hose sitter. She looked after Luna beautifully and despite the constant rain and feeling unwell herself she left the house clean and tidy. She was polite and amiable to be with. Luna warmed to her and was happy in her company. I would give Kimberley top marks.
