Crazy dog lover!
Pet care experience
Chelsea has had much experience living with and taking care of larger sized dogs. She grew up with a doberman/shepherd mix and a black labrador retriever. That being said, she also has taken care of smaller dogs- she has no preference! Chelsea is currently a first grade teacher with a lot of free time during the summer months- perfect for families that are going on vacation and need someone to keep an eye on their furry friend! Steve is currently in a finance role at Travelers in Hartford. He has had dogs his entire life including a pitbull, golden retriever, and a doberman. We are both very active people and love to get outside to keep your dogs busy. Also snuggling up at home with them is always great as well.
Reviews
My Hidie spent the week after Christmas with Chelsea and her family in their home. I could not have been any happier about both myself and Hidie's experience with Chelsea, Steven and their dog Carl. Hidie and Carl got along wonderfully and their large fenced in back yard made me feel safe and comfortable with her space to play. We got updates several times a day with pictures that included Hidie and Carl playing and Hidie snuggled up with Chelsea at night, There is no doubt in my mind that Hidie was treated as a beloved part of their family while I was away. I was very nervous at first to leave Hidie anywhere as she's never been away from me before. The interaction I had with Chelsea and Steven quickly put my mind at ease. Hidie returned home happy, healthy, and missing her new friends. I would book with them again in a heartbeat and I know Hidie would love to return to the safe, loving environment they provided, as well as be able to play with their sweet Carl again.
Chelsea was great! She bailed us out with a last minute sitting when we had to leave town for the weekend. She accommodated us with no time for a meet and greet and little time to get to know our dog, Daisy, very well, but through some quick back and forth discussion, we were able to figure out it sounded like a match. Daisy adapted to the new setting quickly and had a blast, especially playing with Chelsea's new pup, Carl. Daisy, who is usually a ball of energy, crashed the entire drive home and rest of the evening from having such a great time playing. We'll definitely reach out to Chelsea again the next time we need a sitter and hopefully be able to give her a little more lead time next time. Thanks again Chelsea!
Chelsea was fantastic yet again. My wife and I really could not find anyone better to watch our pups. Even when it was just one night, Chelsea provided excellent care for our pups and provided us updates. Thanks again!!!!
Chelsea was fantastic watching our dogs. I would highly recommend her and as a matter of fact have already booked our pups next stay! My dogs were very happy when I picked them up and running around like they were at home. It was fantastic having such great care for our dogs while we were away.

I would like to know of any past history of how they interact with other dogs/animals or any medical issues that should be brought to my attention so I know how to handle situations should they arise. I do not have any breed preferences.
A typical day
I'm a huge fan of taking hikes where the terrain allows. I would love to be able to take a dog on a hike or for a swim, even a dog park if there is one nearby!
