Retired Vet Nurse🦴💜🐾Animal Lover

Pet care experience

Your pets will be treated as our own while enjoying their stay in our home. I purposely keep the number of pets I sit at once limited in order to provide as much love, focus, and care to your fur baby and ensure their stay is as relaxing and stress free as possible. Owners will get multiple check ins and pictures of their pets per-day; I know I always miss my pets when traveling and a little extra peace of mind goes a long way. 💕 I have been a pet owner since I was young and have always been blessed to have animals in my home. I currently have three fur babies, two very sweet little dogs and a horse. I have over 3 years experience working as a veterinary nurse servicing patients of all kinds- but mainly dogs and cats. I have a full triage kit at home, though I hope to never need it! Additionally, I have provided pet services and boarding for family and friends for years. I go to work some days during the week, but my husband works from home and can tend to your little ones all day long when I am at work. We have plenty of time to play with your pups and ensure they get plenty of play time and outdoor breaks. Availability is sometimes limited, but please reach out and I’ll see if we can accommodate your pets visit! My home is decently sized with a fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood. I have two little dogs who always enjoy having friends to play with. My dogs sleep in bed with my husband and I, but they are crate trained and we have several pop-up crates available if desired. We live close to Heather farms and hiking trails if you like for your babies to get out to the dog park or hike for some extra exercise and activity. **I offer animal care for other pets as well (chickens, horses, livestock)! Please feel free to ask if you have these needs. **Everyone in my home is fully vaccinated for Covid-19 and can wear a mask during person-person contact if you prefer. **Dog boarding for dogs >40lbs is a possibility, but I require a meet & greet prior and booking will be tentative depending on how our dogs get along. **Intensive medical care and injectable drug administration subject to additional charge.

Chelsea is the absolute best! We flew in from a different state and needed a puppy sitter for a night and she was able to accommodate us immediately. Our puppy gets pretty anxious when meeting other people but she was very welcoming and sweet. We absolutely loved that she sent us updates and pictures throughout our puppy's stay and we think that her dogs Buddy and Dexter really helped our puppy settle in easier with them. Highly recommend that you book with her!

Winnie loves Chelsea and her fur babies! She's a great pup watcher, and always a great communicator while we are away!

Chelsea is AMAZING! She took wonderful care of my anxious rescue dog, sending me numerous, thorough updates and doing everything she could to provide the best possible experience for him. Right after I dropped him off, she laid out the blanket I brought from home to help him feel as comfortable as possible. It’s clear she treats all visiting dogs as if they’re her own pet, and I loved feeling like I was in the loop over the course of my trip. Roscoe had a great time playing with her two dogs, and I picked him up happy and tired! I would give Chelsea 100 stars if I could. Highly recommend! Thanks, Chelse!

I have a fenced yard and two quiet and friendly pups to keep your dog company. My partner works from home and I’m often off by 12pm, so pets have constant contact and regular potty breaks. We treat your babies as if they were our own 💕

Information Chelsea K. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me should your pets have any special needs! I am happy to accommodate your furry best friend to the best of my abilities. If your dog has any discomfort around other dogs, trouble on walks or in public places with other people- I will do everything I can to ensure your pet’s stay is as relaxing and safe as possible. Please ensure your pets are UTD on all core vaccines (rabies, DAPP) and treated with flea prevention if possible.

A typical day

I always have so much fun with the pets I work with. We love to lounge around the house with plenty of work breaks for scritches and play. Potty breaks happen as frequently as needed in the yard, in addition to a quiet relaxing walk around the neighborhood. To throw in some adventure and excitement, I love to take the pups to Heather Farms Dog Park to play with friends or on a beautiful hike on one of the many trails on Mount Diablo.

Availability

I work and like to limit the number of boarders I have at one time to provide the best care, but am happy to work out timing to best accommodate and play with your fur baby! Generally I am available weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. I do tend to book up early, so the sooner you know your plans and reach out- the better.
