Pet care experience
I grew up in a dog-filled and loving household. As an adult, I own 2 energetic huskies! If you book a housesit, they will stay home with my husband (unless your dog wants company!) My friends have trusted me to watch over both their dogs and cats. I have experience using slip leads, prong collars, e-collars, and gentle leader. Over the years, I have learned how to interpret body language, and know when to give space.
Reviews
Chelsea did a great job caring for our two cats while we were away! She was prompt and communicative, and followed their care instructions well. She also sent pictures and notes which let me see how they were doing! Chelsea also matched the energy of the cats and gave cuddles when they were interested but also gave them space when they seemed to want it. They were happy and healthy when we returned, and I would gladly use Chelsea again in the future!
Chelsea was easy to work with and provided updates / photos during a short stay with my dog. Highly recommend!
Chelsea is always very responsive and gives fun updates on how my cat is doing when I’m away. I know my cat is well taken care of when she looks after him.
Chelsea is a really awesome house sitter. She very generously hung out with my dog, who was experiencing separation anxiety bigtime. She patiently encouraged him until he felt comfortable taking walks, and playing in our back yard. They are great pals now, and we would really love to have her back for our next dogless excursion.

Safety, trust & environment
I will follow your pet's normal schedule, but also make sure they get lots of exercise or mental stimulation. I am an avid runner and hiker, and can make sure they are tired out. If your dog will tolerate a harness, I use a Noxgear light up harness for all walks in the dark. (https://bit.ly/3TJooGc)
Information Chelsea H. would like to know about your pet
Is your dog reactive or prey driven? Would your dog enjoy play dates with another dog (possibly my own)? How can I make them the most comfortable/relaxed while you are away?
A typical day
After getting familiar with your dog's routine, I'd love to take your dog hiking if they are up for it! There are so many dog-friendly trail options on the front range.

Availability
I currently have an open schedule, and will be working remotely. I will be available to stay with your pet for most of the day, so they won't be lonely or bored. For housesitting, my max is about 3-5 days.
