Pet care experience
I'm available for cat care, dog drop-ins and walks, as well as care for any other members of your furry or not so furry family - including rodents, fish, and even house plants (they need love too!) I grew up around dogs of all sizes and breeds - I have loved and cared for both a 9 pound Pekingese and a 90 pound Lab mix. I currently have one kitty reigning over my household, so I'm unable to take dogs for overnights - but I would love to have some quality walking and playing time with a wagging friend! I also grew up with cats of all varieties - the cuddliest to the not so cuddly. If you have a standoffish cat, rest assured I am patient and mellow, and I know when to respect their space as I want them feeling as comfortable as possible. In addition to the feeding and scooping, I'm more than happy to spend some time entertaining and doting on your kitty counterparts. I have loved and lost senior and sick pets, so I understand the patience required for their care. I also have experience in giving oral and topical medications.
Reviews
Just the best! Chelsea has been cat sitting us for years and is always the most reliable. Our cat loves her and looks forward to seeing her!!!!
Chelsea is a great sitter! She's always been incredibly accommodating of needy animals and unusual situations and has done exactly what we've needed!
Very attentive and thoughtful. I appreciated Chelsea being available during the holidays and for sending me cute pics of my kitty. Will definitely work with her again and recommend her to my friends.
Chelsea is an amazing cat sitter, and has expanded her horizons to help look after our backyard chickens as well! Would highly recommend :)
About Chelsea C.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my client's homes I am very respectful of their space, keep things clean, and am hyper-focused on closing and locking doors to ensure pet safety and security. I'm also happy to bring in packages and mail.
Information Chelsea C. would like to know about your pet
I don't have any breed preferences, but I am unable to take on dogs that have displayed aggressive tendencies. Otherwise please just let me know how they handle the leash outside, how they handle seeing other dogs, cats, etc. (squirrel!), and anything specific that would help or hurt their experience!
A typical day
If a backyard is available I love to throw a ball or hang out in the sun for a bit. While on walks I love to safely explore the neighborhood and let the dog take their time smelling the roses.

Availability
I'm currently working full time so I schedule drop-ins before or after work or during my lunch break, so at this time I've only been accepting recurring customers or referrals.
