Pet care experience
I love animals and Rover is a great way for me to spend time with them! I grew up with dogs and am now the proud pet parent to two cats. I will provide your pets with the highest level of care, as if they are my own. I can check in on animals at every life stage: from kitten and puppy through seniors. I can administer feline inhalers along with oral, transdermal, and topical medication to both cats and dogs. I can directly pill animals, use pill pockets/maskers, or mix medication in food. I have experience caring for animals with FIV, stomatitis, coccidia, kidney disease, hip dysplasia, and arthritis, among other ailments. I am familiar with digital and analog programmable pet feeders, as well as a variety of litter boxes. I am currently insured as a sitter with Pet Care Insurance (PCI).
Reviews
Wonderful care and service by Chelsea for our two cats, with pictures provided
Chelsea has taken great care of my cats both time she has cared for them. She was strongly recommended by a friend and I have recommended her in turn to others. She is easy to work with and responsive.
Chelsea was incredibly attentive to my two cats, one of which is wary of new people and the other that requires medication. She also handled outdoor garden watering like a pro - I came back to a whole plant of ripe tomatoes!
Once again Chelsea has provided care for our 2 cats while on vacation. We know they are always in great hands with her!!

Information Chelsea A. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know any chronic illnesses, diseases, special needs, medications, restrictions, personality quirks, or behaviors your pet has. What commands and cues does your pet respond to? How is your pet with new people?
A typical day
I will tailor my care to match your pets' energy and comfort levels. I will ensure I stick to their normal routine to the best of my ability, providing the utmost level of care while you're away. A typical day with a cat will include properly feeding and refilling water bowls/fountains, scooping and tidying the litterbox area, administering any medications if necessary, grooming as needed, and socialization at the discretion of the cat, of course. A typical day with a dog will include feeding and refilling water bowls, a walk/bathroom break, administering any medications if necessary, grooming as needed, and playtime to match the pups' energy level and personality. I will not visit any dog parks.
