Top notch care for every pet!

Pet care experience

Bonafide animal lover and proud Momma to six furbabies of my own (5 dogs and a cat). I’ve spent my entire 29 years on earth surrounded by a multitude of animals from dog and cats to reptiles, fish, birds, even horses and goats! I have a heightened sense of empathy for all animals and I believe that is what has allowed me to find such passion in training, rescuing and caring for animals. I have successfully rescued and rehabilitated dozens of animals over the years even before I worked at a nonprofit rescue organization. I have over 5 years of training experience and I am experienced with special needs animals and animals with behavioral issues. I’m also capable of administering oral and injection medications and bottle feedings. I strongly believe that the key to developing strong bonds and ensuring a positive outcome for all parties involved is in a caretaker’s approach and attitude. I love and respect all animals as if they were my own. You can trust that your furbabies will be in very capable hands while you’re away!

Chelsea was great. Kept the cats happy. She sends the best pictures. I will definitely use her every time I need a sitter.

So nice to get home and my pets are happy and not stressed. Chelsea sent me pictures and updates on my pets once she was at my home. Even took time and played fetch with my oldest dog. I didn't even tell her she liked to play fetch. Will use her again in the near future.

Chelsea loves animals like no one else! She is the only person I trust to come check on my kitty (and my house) when I’m on vacation. She’s reliable, honest, and compassionate. She has extensive experience working with animals. She’s been involved in the rescue side of animal care all the way to the professional training side. You’ve heard the saying, “Animals are the best judge of character.” Well my crazy cat likes no one except Chelsea. I’m pretty fond of her too! It’s hard to find someone so trustworthy and I’m super thankful to have found Chelsea.

Chelsea is my family's go-to when it comes to pet sitting and training consults. My dogs and cat absolutely love her and I feel much better about going out of town knowing that she's checking in on them for me. She also comes over for in-home training sessions to help nip my dogs bad habits in the bud. I highly recommend her!

I care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. Worried about them feeling lonely while you’re away? We can schedule drop in visits throughout the day whether it’s for a game of fetch or cuddles on the couch. Is your pet on the more active side? Let’s set up a walk schedule to help burn off their energy. Does your pet need a little freshening up but you’re short on time? Ask me about bath services! Got a new puppy and you want to set them up for success with basic obedience? Does your dog get really excited for their walks and end up walking you? Do you just need a little help building confidence in yourself as a dog handler? I can help! Ask me about training services!

Information Chelsea C. would like to know about your pet

My goal is to provide your pets with the best possible care and making the experience an enjoyable and stimulating one. Whatever activities your pet is into, swimming, running, playing fetch, I am more than happy to oblige.

A typical day

Walks around the neighborhood, trips to the dog park or even shopping trips to PetSmart and Petco. Running errands like grooming and veterinary appointments. For the water pups going for a nice swim is perfect for a sunny summer day. Pick up a pup cup to cool off after a day of fun and exercise.

I am a full time dog trainer and pet sitter so I can be there for you and your pets anytime you need! Just let me know what services you’d like to schedule for your furbabies and I’ll take it from there. I can provide any service from basic obedience and puppy training to pet sitting and drop in visits. I can give baths to keep your pets clean and happy. Do you need help staying on top of your pet’s medication or grooming schedule? No worries, I can handle that too! I can bring your pets to and from their veterinary and grooming appointments.
