About Me
I was born in the year 1632, in the city of York, of a good family, tho' not of that country...
​
Wait, wait, wait, wrong story.
​
My name is Kimberly Hinz and I live in Toledo, Ohio. I moved here in May of 2015 after spending my first almost-30 years growing up in Cincinnati. While making such a big move might be difficult for some people, I immediately loved my new home and the people here. Toledo truly is a beautiful, thriving city!
​
When it comes to pet care knowledge, I have a lifetime of experience with dogs, cats, and semi "exotic" pets (e.g., fish, hamsters, gerbils) thanks to both ownership and working at animal shelters and within my neighborhood. While most teenagers babysit kids for extra money, I was taking care of my neighbors' cats and dogs! Working at a local animal shelter here in Toledo helped me learn how to care for the most vulnerable of animals. I developed a strong work ethic and tough stomach while cleaning up after sick animals, not to mention cleaning up yards and litter boxes, too!
I currently have a rescue dog named Luckie. She is 15 years old and came from Cincinnati with me. Because of past abuse, Luckie is a very skittish dog and has required a lot of extra love and patience while training her. She is a wonderful, loyal pup who loves to cuddle and give kisses.
Growing up, I also had a black lab named Missi. She lived to be 11 years old before crossing the Rainbow Bridge due to cancer. Missi was my best friend and I often refer to her as my "soul dog" because we were so close and had such similar personalities.
During my downtime, I enjoy watching tv series like Ghost Adventures, The Simpsons, and The Young & The Restless. I also love collecting anything and everything related to pandas and Sailor Moon.
