About Outdoor Dog Adventures

Kim was born and raised in Harford County, Maryland. She attended Towson University, where she graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration with a concentration in International Business. Kim moved to Louisville in 2015. Kim spent 8 years working in finance but always had a passion for animals beginning at a young age. She has had a wide range of pets, ranging from the typical childhood carnival goldfish to a chinchilla and, of course, dogs.

Kim is a proud dog mom to her 4 fur babies: Lilly (a puggle adopted from Maryland), Chuy (an Australian Cattle mix adopted from the Kentucky Humane Society), Eleanor (a Bullmastiff/Golden Retriever mix adopted from Woodstock Animal Foundation in Lexington), and Bella (a Boston Terrier/Frenchie mix she graciously took in for an elderly client). She is a member of Pet Sitters International and also a Certified Professional Pet Sitter. She strives to provide the best care for your pups whether it be a stimulating, adventurous hike or an exciting game of fetch in the backyard.

When not working, Kim enjoys spoiling her dogs at home, taking them on adventures, and visiting and volunteering at the local animal shelters. She is also passionate about fitness, attending spin class, spending time outdoors, and traveling. Her favorite weekend activity is snuggling on the couch with the dogs and binge-watching The Golden Girls.

Savannah is originally from Taylorsville, Kentucky. She attended University of Louisville where she double majored in flute performance and music history. She has had a passion for playing the flute for 12 years, and she most loves to play classical, jazz, RnB, and funk music. Her best friend is her 100 pound Great pyrenees German Shepard mix Larry Hartford Norris. She and Larry love to go on hiking adventures. Although Larry doesn’t like Savannah’s flute playing, he is an excellent singer himself and loves to howl along with choir music. Savannah is very excited to be working at ODA and has enjoyed making friends with all the animals in town. She has found it to be incredibly inspiring and the perfect way to spend her time when she’s not making music.

Kobe was raised in St. Louis, where he never lived without the comfort of a pet in the home. Once he moved to Louisville in 2017 he was united with his beloved pup Obito, who is a sassy and spunky Shiba Inu. Him and Kobe make frequent road trips, which has become one of Obito’s favorite pastimes.
When Kobe isn’t exploring nature or going on long drives with his pup, you can probably find him at the piano, where he’ll be jamming all of his favorite soul/jazz/r&b classics. Or if not there, he’s likely to be reading some of his favorite poetry. Kobe enjoys the personal nature of working at ODA, and believes it’s a unique opportunity for an individual to impact their community. Making friends with all the furry buddies in town has proved to be an enriching experience!
