Highlights
Pet care experience
Friendly, reliable animal lover who truly cares!
I’ve been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember! Growing up, my family had two Jack Russells and a German Shepherd, and now my immediate family has two Cockapoos - completely crazy, full of personality, but absolutely amazing. Having experience with a wide variety of breeds (and energy levels!), plus two years on Rover caring for lots of different dogs, I’ve learned that every pup is unique. I understand what dogs need, whether that’s extra cuddles, structured routines, or plenty of playtime, and I always pay close attention to the little details. My goal is to give every dog a loving, comfortable “home away from home” experience where they feel safe, happy, and spoiled (in the best way!).
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Chelsea was great! Our Labrador, Norman was well looked after. Chelsea was easy to communicate with and flexible to our needs.
Chelsea L. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Bertie had a lovely day with Chelsea - lots of cuddles and a good walk. Thank you again.
We use Chelsea every time we need care for Burt, he’s always excited to see her and has the best time. Chelsea is great with updates and photos, 10/10 recommend.
My dog, Bo, visited Chelsea for the first time today. We are going away in March and in need of boarding for him so wanted to get some visits in with Chelsea beforehand to ensure he was going to be ok. I was a little nervous as Bo has never done anything like this before but Chelsea was extremely responsive in messages and today went great! I really appreciated the regular updates including photos and Bo really enjoyed his time with Chelsea today. We now have many more visits booked in. Thank you Chelsea, highly recommended!!
Fantastic as usual! The dogs have come back well fed, exercised and happy! Thanks again!

I work from the office Monday through Wednesday and from home on Thursdays and Fridays. During the days I am in the office, my partner is at home to ensure your pet continues to receive attentive care and companionship throughout the day!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I aim to provide a safe, welcoming, and calm environment for every dog in my care, ensuring they feel comfortable, secure, and truly included as part of the household. Whether I’m looking after a dog for a single day or for several weeks, I focus on maintaining familiar routines, offering plenty of affection, and creating a relaxed “home away from home” experience so each dog can settle in with confidence and ease.
A typical day
I like to give each dog time to settle in at their own pace, allowing them to explore their new surroundings, have a sniff around my home and the garden, get to know me, and feel comfortable in my care. We’ll enjoy gentle walks around the local area and, when appropriate, trips to the beach to help them become familiar with their environment. On weekends, I love heading out for longer walks, especially for dogs who enjoy extra exercise (I’m an avid walker!). For dogs who aren’t able to walk long distances, I make sure they still get plenty of enrichment and movement suited to their abilities, with opportunities to safely explore and stay active in ways that work best for them. This is all balanced with lots of downtime at home, including attention, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of love - so every dog feels happy, relaxed, and well cared for.

- Please let me know of any special requirements or needs prior to booking, and I will always do my best to accommodate them and remain as flexible as possible. If your dog has never, or only rarely, stayed away from home and you’re considering a boarding stay, I recommend arranging a daycare visit and/or a short overnight stay beforehand. This helps ensure your dog feels comfortable in my home and allows us both to have a relaxed and positive experience.
