Reptile Love & Pet Care with Heart: Kim Ellam Shares Her Story | Hot Stories Cambridge
At Hot Stories Cambridge, we met a business owner whose love for animals shines through every word and wag. Kim Ellam, founder of Kim’s Purfect Pets, shared how her pet sitting business evolved into something truly unique: a dedicated reptile boarding service.
Whether it’s cats, dogs, chickens—or stick insects—Kim has lovingly cared for them all.
But her real excitement today? Spreading the word about her purpose-built reptile boarding facilities.
🦎 What Makes Kim’s Service Different?
-
Purpose-built enclosures for:
Bearded dragons
Chameleons
Crested geckos
Stick insects
-
Tortoises
-
Daily outdoor time in the sunshine or free-roam around the house

Temperature readings
Feeding habits
-
Yes—even poo checks!
Unlike pet shops, Kim’s approach ensures every reptile stays mentally stimulated and physically active, receiving the love and care they’d get at home.
“They’re not just animals—they’re someone’s babies. I treat them that way.”
Kim also shared a lovely full-circle story about rescuing a chameleon that looked exactly like the one on her banner—made before they ever met. Some things are just meant to be.
And the cherry on top? Kim recently had a new client find her as the top search result on Google—proof that quality care and kindness can earn real visibility.
