Pet care experience

Vet Tech & Doggie Care Taker!

Hi there! I’m Chelsea 🐾 I’m a veterinary technician with over 11 years of experience in fast-paced animal hospitals, and I’ve dedicated my career to caring for pets like they’re my own. From giving medications and monitoring health to understanding animal behavior and providing gentle, loving care—I bring professional-level experience to every walk, drop-in, or day boarding. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. I know how important it is to find someone you can fully trust with your pet, and I’m here to offer peace of mind and lots of tail wags. Whether your pet needs a slow stroll, playtime, or just some snuggles while you’re away, I’ll be there with a big heart and skilled hands. 💛 Can’t wait to meet your four-legged family member! :)

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, pets are treated like family. I create a calm, safe, and loving environment where your pet can feel comfortable and secure. I stick closely to their normal routine—whether that’s feeding times, potty breaks, medications, or bedtime habits—to help them feel at ease. With my background as a veterinary technician, I’m confident in caring for pets with special needs, anxiety, or specific health concerns. I always monitor closely for any changes in behavior or health and keep communication open with pet parents. Your pet will have a clean, cozy space to relax, plenty of love and attention, and of course, lots of playtime and snuggles (if they’re the cuddly type)! 🐾💛

Chelsea was fantastic! Great communication and punctual visits. My cat Sunny loved her. I would absolutely rebook Chelsea.

Boarding • Jan 24, 2020

I've used Chelsea for boarding a couple of times now and am so happy I found her. She's quick to respond, flexible on drop-off and pick-up, sends updates and is genuine in her love and care for my dog. I trust her and I'll continue to use Chelsea in the future. Highly recommended!

House Sitting • Jan 28, 2019

Chelsea was really responsive and communicated well. We felt extremely comfortable leaving our cat in her hands and did not worry while we enjoyed our vacation. She sent us lots of pictures and gave us updates on the cat’s behavior, temperament, etc.

Chelsea is the best! She’s so positive and enthusiastic. She handled our dogs special medical and dietary needs, even brushed her teeth before bed (like we’ve done since she was a puppy)! Not only did she keep us updated with photos, but she has a great eye — her photos are some of the best we have of our little monster.

Doggy Day Care • Dec 05, 2018

We were very apprehensive leaving Andie with a new sitter. Chelsea did a fantastic job communicating and sending pix throughout the day. Our dog is easy, her owners aren't as much. She managed our anxiety with aplomb, and it was clear Andie had a great time. Looking forward to booking with her in the future.

Before caring for any pet, I love to know as much as possible so I can give them the best experience! It’s helpful to know: • Their daily routine (mealtimes, potty breaks, walk preferences) • Any medical conditions, medications, or allergies • How they handle strangers, other animals, loud noises, or separation • Their favorite things (treats, toys, belly rubs?) and what makes them nervous • Any training cues or house rules you’d like me to follow As a veterinary technician, I’m also comfortable working with pets who have medical needs or behavioral quirks. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can keep your pet safe, happy, and stress-free! 💛
