Pet care experience

Safe & loving home, reliable sitter

I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, from tiny puppies to 150+ lb gentle giants. I grew up with Great Danes, Labradors, and Standard Poodles, Pugs, and wiener dogs, so I’m very experienced with large and giant breeds as well as smaller family dogs. Friends, neighbors, and family have always relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and safely care for their pets. I provide a calm, safe, and loving home where dogs can relax and feel comfortable. I pay attention to routines, energy levels, and comfort needs, and I’m great with shy, sensitive, puppy and senior dogs. Your dog will get plenty of love, playtime, and attention, and I always communicate with updates and photos so you feel connected while you’re away.

Thank you for taking care of my fur baby. Your updates were very helpful and made my out of town trip a pleasure knowing he was being well taken care of. We’ll be back the next time we need a sitter:)

We left Buddy, our Shihtzu, with Chelsea for 11 days. It was very difficult for us because we have never left him for nearly that long and we left him with a stranger! Buddy seemed to do great under Chelsea’s care and got along well with her dog, Goose. She was great with communication and photos and constantly reassured me that Buddy was doing just fine. Our experience with Chelsea was very good and I would definitely leave Buddy in her care again.

Chelsea was great! Needed a last minute sitter and she was able to watch her. She definitely relieved my worries about leaving my baby girl. She provided updates and pictures. Definitely recommend! 😊

Chelsea came through with a last minute booking and took such great care of my boy Miles. He was happy and relaxed upon picking him up. 5/5 stars, highly recommend.

We have used Chelsea many times for drop ins and boarding. She is always very communicative and takes extra special care of Oliver and Chopper treating them like her own 🥰. We definitely recommend her and will use her again.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I have a very flexible schedule, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m home often throughout the day & night, and love having dogs around. I’m available for boarding on weekdays, weekends, and holidays, and I make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, playtime, and consistent potty breaks. I have one friendly male neutered pug, a calm male neutered cat, and a child in the home, and visiting pets always adjust well to our relaxed, safe environment.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I have a fully fenced yard for secure outdoor time, and I always supervise dogs during play and potty breaks. Inside the home, I keep a calm, clean, and dog-friendly environment. I can easily crate your dog if needed or follow any routines you prefer. I also have multiple gated areas to safely separate pets during feeding, rest time, or whenever a dog needs their own space. I supervise all outdoor time, and I carefully manage introductions so every pet feels safe and comfortable

Pets

A typical day

A typical day with me is calm, fun, and structured. We’ll go on relaxed neighborhood walks, play in my fenced yard, enjoy lots of cuddle time, and get plenty of attention throughout the day. I keep pets on their normal routine and make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home.

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, routines, or behaviors that I should be aware of so I can give them the best care possible. I’m comfortable with all breeds and personalities, and I’m happy to adjust to whatever helps your dog feel safe and relaxed in my home.
