Pet care experience
Hi, my name is Kelly, and my husband, Dahl, and I will both be primary dog watchers since we both work from home full-time. Our young girls, Lily and Rosie, will also be interacting with your dogs on a regular basis. They are sweet, calm girls who love dogs and do very well with them. We are flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, since we work from home, so someone is here almost all of the time. We have watched many dogs for friends over the years, and this seemed like a great way to expand on that. I love dogs, and my favorite dog- sitting experience was when my neighbor needed someone to watch her puppy during the day while she worked. I picked him up in the morning and dropped him off at night. I helped train him and just loved on him all day. I was a second mom to him, and we still get very excited to see each other. I often watch him when his parents are out of town now. My husband had a dog for 9 years growing up, and also loves dogs. We are so excited to meet your fur-babies!!
Reviews
Kelly and sweet family jumped in on a last minute booking. They took such great care of my little buddy I thought he would forget me! At least I knew he was having a good time and not sad that I left him. I would totally recommend Kelly again and again!
Kelly was great. Sent lots of pics and videos. Ginger came back happy and relaxed.
Kelly and her family took very good care of our pup. He always comes home a little tired from playing and plenty happy. Thanks again for watching him!
Kelly and her family are excellent pet sitters. They have a very welcoming home and kept good contact sending me lots of video and photo updates. I would highly recommend booking with her and will definitely book with her again in the future.

Safety, trust & environment
We have a fenced in backyard with a fenced in pool and often walk around our neighborhood and to the local park. We can watch dogs from multiple families at a time as long as the families approve and both dogs are good with other dogs. We do this on a case by case basis.

Information Kelly S. would like to know about your pet
We have little girls born Dec 2019 and Sept 2022, so I first of all need to be sure that your dog is comfortable around babies/ children, and that they will gentle with them. My girls are very gentle and good with dogs. They are very used to having them around since we do Rover a lot! I would like make sure they are fully potty-trained, know how often they need to be taken out to go potty, and their eating schedule and preferences. We usually try to mimic the sleeping arrangements they have at home, so I'd like to know what they are accustomed to there as well. I also would want to know their energy level, how loud they typically are, a general overview of their personality, and what activities they enjoy. Of course, I would like to know what their needs are as far as how much activity they need, and if they have any special needs that I should be aware of. Finally, I would love to know anything YOU want me to know about your dog and how you would like their stay with us to go.
A typical day
We love to take dogs on walks to the local park. Dogs would go on walks with us, or if it is too hot as it often is in AZ, we can also play inside. Fetch and tug of war are 2 of our favorite games! Sometimes, if it is too hot but dogs like their outside time, my husband and I will swim in our pool and let the dog(s) hang out with the misters from our hose, which they seem to really enjoy. Of course, if you don't want your pet near the pool, we would respect that (it is fully fenced in). We have a shaded patio with misters for outside time when it is hot out. My girls really like dogs and are good at playing nicely with them. We love to all cuddle on the couch with the dogs and really they just join our family while they are here :)
