Pet care experience

Paws and relax: while you're away.

Ever since I was a kid, my love for animals has been unstoppable! Over the years, my passion has only grown stronger, and I've been fortunate to care for both cats and dogs for a long time. Right now, I share my home with three amazing cats and three playful dogs, each with their own personality and quirks. On top of that, I love helping out my friends and neighbors by taking care of their furry companions when they’re away. Whether it's feeding, walking, or just giving them some love, I truly enjoy every moment spent with animals. Living in Columbus, working in Verona, WI, and everywhere in between, I’m always ready to provide the best care for any pet that comes my!

Chelle did a great job with my two dogs. She kept me updated with pictures and text messages. My pets were very happy. I would definitely use her again!

Chelle was amazing. She checked in with pictures and loved my dogs like her own. They quickly made friends which I loved! Check ins were regular. She even went the extra mile and unstuck the cable the dogs got extra stuck under the deck. As newbies to the area we could not have been more thankful she came out and had the time for them.

Chelle was an outstanding in-home sitter for our cat and elderly dog! She provided excellent, loving care for our pets, was a spotless house guest, and communicated with us in a timely fashion while we were away. I would highly recommend Chelle for any services you may need!

Chelle was great! We were in an unexpected pinch and Chelle came to our rescue. Excellent communication, sent lots of pictures. We were confident that our new pup was in good hands. Would definitely work with Chelle again!

Chelle is the most gentle and nurturing dog/pet mom, that I have ever met! The unconditional love and support she provides her pets and others pets (mine included) is next level. From getting up at all hours of the night for potty breaks, walking 3 dogs at once, unlimited belly rubs and as close as you can get (under the hoodie 😂) cuddles. Chelle truly is not only an exceptional human, but lover of all animals 💕
