Hello, I am Chelsea, a full time dog sitter and groomer, and I LOVE working with dogs! I have two French Bulldogs Bat and Two Face who love to play with other dogs. We also have a sphynx cat named Tut and a Lykoi cat named Lycan who think they are dogs. They are super friendly and greet every new dog that comes thru our door. I am a single mama with an almost 4 year old son. I work full time grooming and sitting from home. I recently moved my retired mom in with us to help care for my son while I work, in return I pay all her bills, so it is just the 3 of us! I have a good sized 6ft fenced in backyard for the pups to play, I keep my back door open from 5:00am-8:00pm for them to have access to. I am always home with the dogs besides occasional errands and play dates with my son. If we do have an outing planned the dogs are not left alone for over 3 hours and they still have access to the yard to play when we are gone. I have been a professional dog groomer for 12 yrs and have been dog sitting for 7 years. We do offer a $10 discount on grooming services when its included with a stay. We take drop offs and pick ups as early as 7am and as late as 8pm. We do watch up to 8 dogs at a time, if your dog doesn't do well in a pack this will not be a good fitting. Come back from your vacation to a tired, happy, clean and well groomed dog! :) Why we love dog sitting We have grown up with dogs being an important part of our lives. From having them as pets, to working with them About our yard We have a good sized fenced in backyard with a small patio. Plenty of room to run! I groom dogs from home Monday thru Friday so I am always home with them. The weekends are spent mostly at home, if we do go out they are not left over 3 hours and still have access to the yard They pretty much have the run of the house. I only crate them if instructed to do so. My back door is open from 5am-8pm for them to have access to the fenced in yard I work from home dog grooming and sitting so im pretty much always home with them besides running errands and play dates with my toddler They have access to most of the house besides the bedrooms, I keep my back door open from 500am-8pm so they have access to the yard to play. If you add grooming services I groom them as close to the pick up time as I can
