Pet care experience

I give your pets all the pets.

Hi, I’m Chelsea — a lifelong animal lover raised on a small farm in North Carolina, where caring for animals wasn’t just a chore, it was a way of life. From bottle-feeding baby goats to grooming horses and caring for dogs, cats, chickens, and everything in between, I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes. By the time I was 13, I was fully responsible for my own horse — a bond that taught me patience, responsibility, and a deep sense of empathy that I bring to every pet I care for today. Over the past six years, I’ve professionally cared for pets and homes across the country. My clients trust me not only because I’m dependable, but because I truly love what I do — and their pets feel that. ✨ I specialize in: • Senior pet care • Medication administration (oral, topical, eye drops, etc.) • Sensitive or shy animals needing extra patience and presence • Overnight care and home comfort Whether your pet needs a peaceful cuddle buddy, a playful walking partner, or someone who can follow a medical routine to the letter, I’ve got it covered. I’m known for creating a calm, nurturing space that helps pets feel safe and loved while their humans are away. Being around animals feels like home to me. I’m deeply honored every time a family trusts me to care for their beloved companion, and I don’t take that lightly. Thank you so much for visiting my profile. I can’t wait to meet your pet and provide them with the thoughtful, heart-centered care they deserve. Warmly, Chelsea

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Care & Communication! Chelsea did an amazing job taking care of my home and pets while I was away. I can be a bit of a control freak when it comes to my space and animals, but she made me feel completely at ease. She sent daily updates and photos, which helped me relax knowing everything was in great hands. I came home to a spotless house and happy, well-loved kitties—it was exactly how I left it, if not better! Chelsea is incredibly reliable, thoughtful, and clearly loves what she does. I’d absolutely welcome her back and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter.

Chelsea was so awesome! She bonded with Hooper like no other and went on daily walks on various trails. She sent pictures every day of Hooper at the many location and I could tell Hooper was having a blast! It warmed my heart to see them enjoying the outdoors together. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter to care for my Hooper boy for the 2 months I went to Alaska. Hooper was sad when she had to go. I would highly recommend Chelsea for anyone looking for a loving companion for their fur baby. I would gladly welcome her back anytime to care for my boy. 🙂👍🐶

Chelsea is a wonderful Pet Sitter. She stayed at my home for 10 days and took care of my 1 year old kitty. It seems my kitty had some separation anxiety and made Chelsea's stay a bit more of a challenge than expected. But she was so wonderful and patient with my kitty. She would check in daily, send me a report how it was going and provided pictures which I so appreciated. She even went as far as getting some Calming treats (with my permission of course) to try and make her comfortable. I felt bad she was having separation anxiety but felt she was in the best of care with Amore. Chelsea is a great communicator, responsible, and very trustworthy. My Home was clean, all my linens washed and put away. Was a wonderful treat to come home to a spotless house and a happy kitty. She also took care of my plants while I was away an extra bonus I very much appreciated. I would have Chelsea pet sit for me anytime! I promise you will not be disappointed. She truly loves animals and has a very caring heart. Deanna
