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 a 3 year old cat. 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, 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
Chelsea is amazing with our cats! They seem to really like her, and she sends great pictures and updates about their shenanigans while we’re away. She also left the place spotless, was super responsive when our travel plans changed, and helped us troubleshoot an automatic litter box issue. Will definitely book again!
Chelsea was a wonderfully communicative sitter for our two cats while we were abroad for two weeks. We received charming updates with many pictures every day. Even our very shy cat warmed right up to her!
Chelsea took such great care of my cat! She administered her inhaler daily and quickly stepped in to help solve a problem with my automatic feeder. I felt very comfortable knowing my cat was in such good hands and I can tell from the cute pictures she sent that my cat loves spending time with her. I highly recommend Chelsea :)
Chelsea is wonderful! She is extremely thorough, follows our detailed instructions to the letter, ensures our kitty gets his many medications and supplements, and sends great updates and pictures. We are happy we found her!

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.
