A New Friend for your Best Friend
Pet care experience
Hey there, nice to meet you. I moved to the Amherst area from Seattle to start graduate school and miss all of my furry friends back home! For the last 16 years I have helped care for, raise, and play with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. It would be my great pleasure to be there for you and your dog(s) so that everyone can feel happy, healthy, and secure. I grew up taking care of my beloved German Shepherd, Kailey, who lived a long and happy 14 and a half years. As a child I was responsible for her training, walking, and general care which led me to form a deep bond and attachment to her and all other dogs I meet! Before moving here I lived in a household with two dogs and three cats. I have experience with dogs that are considered both easy and difficult walkers, high and low energy, big and small. Some of the breeds I have cared for include German Shepherds, Shepherd mixes, Golden Retrievers, Pit Bulls, Beagles, and Jack Russel Terriers. I am happy to work with dogs that are shy, anxious, or fearful of other dogs. Every dog deserves some good exercise, love, and attention during the day. I recognize that can look differently for each dog and family. You know your dog better than anyone else, so let me know how I can best accommodate your dog(s) for a comfortable visit.
Reviews
Chelsea is a fantastic dog sitter and walker! She has taken care of our two dogs many times when we were away. Our rambunctious German Shepherd loves it when Chelsea comes by and our Golden Retriever always likes to cuddle up next to her. Chelsea takes very good care of our puppers and she follows every instruction very well. Any dog would be lucky to have Chelsea!
Chelsea has walked my dog countless times and that is no easy task-- I have a rescue dog from an prior abusive home and he DOES NOT like other dogs. In fact, he will attack them if not coerced otherwise. Chelsea is gracious, patient, and kind with my challenging animal. Not to mention her ability to walk him long distances so he comes back tired out!
Chelsea is awesome! She's walked and house sat our 2 dogs on multiple occasions, and they always love it when they get to see her! One of our dogs, a German Shepherd, is still young and rambunctious, but Chelsea has no trouble keeping up with her energy. Chelsea is definitely our go-to for all our dog walking needs!
