Highlights
Pet care experience
Here to ensure your animals needs
I worked in agriculture and spent a lot of my time training our animals as well as our live stock guardian dogs and carry experience with purebred, mixed, & AKC lineage animals. I am educated on training (be it standard training/ potty training, training in hand sign commands) first aid, CPR as well as doggy Heimlich maneuver. I ensure your dog is comfortable and gets a stimulating experience both mentally and physically to ensure they are getting the enrichment necessary for a healthy happy life.
Cat care experience
Chelsea also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
For mental stimulation I hide high reward treats or use snuffle mats to engage and when the inevitable tantrum occurs; I distract and do training segments to negate the poor behavior. I also actively try to practice and use the verbage my clients use to ingrain and train for everyday life activities. I believe preventative care is the best care you can give to your animal. I treat all animals with love and kindness and attempt to help keep them fulfilled by learning what their needs are and by continuing to keep them engaged both mentally and physically. Home environments are custom tailored to whatever your dog and yourself will need to be comfortable, safe and engaged while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Chelsea was an amazing sitter for my highly anxious senior dog. She kept us updated on his behavior and actually helped us by finding some new methods to help him. My house was so clean after she left and the dogs were both so well cared for. I am so appreciative that we were able to fully enjoy our vacation because of her care of our dogs.
Chelsea is great have booked with her several times and will continue booking with her as long as she's available five stars all day
Chelsea was outstanding! Upon our meet and greet she was warm and wonderful with the dogs. I felt like I’d known her for much longer than 10 minutes. She was attentive to our instructions, generous with communication and photos and even vacuumed before she left. 10/10!
Chelsea is amazing. Excellent communication;, she took great care of our dogs and our home
Chelsea is the absolute best. I could tell right away that my dogs were happy and comfortable with her which is the best thing I could ask for. Chelsea asked me the details of the dogs daily routines which shows true care. I loved all of the photo updates she provided. I highly recommend Chelsea for any pet owner who needs to leave town with a peace of mind your baby will be in good hands.
Chelsea is Hendrix’s favorite sitter (and ours too). She always provides the best updates and genuinely know our boy is being taken very good care of when we’re away. You can tell Chelsea is very passionate about animals and it shows in her work!! Also I swear she leaves my house cleaner than I left it when she comes, truly going above and beyond. Thank you!! ❤️

Schedule
I currently help my sister with her puppy and I helped with animals in my house whenever strays found homes and more came in looking for sanctuary.
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsChelsea can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- I always ask for a written/ typed note that includes: Emergency contact number from owner and trusted friend Emergency vet information Vet information Feeding schedule with food amounts/ types of food A typical schedule of the day as I try to keep to your daily routine as closely as possible to mitigate anxiety For walks I ask if you’d like a specific distance/ time whichever your preference is/ how many times a day Medication management- this includes ALLERGENS! WiFi information Basic command verbiage Favourite toy Soupy poopy protocol- fasting/ boiled chicken and white rice/ probiotics/ continue regular feedings For Cats: If the litter box is automated please leave trouble shooting information Where is extra cat litter/ deodorizer located? Dust pan & broom or vacuum location Cups/ faucets/ water fountains/ bowls- preference for cat(s) drinking water Quirks- anything specific I need to know about your feline companion(s) Then my only stipulations for booking a stay is the area id be staying in to be clean/ sanitary when I come to stay. I didn’t think it was necessary to disclose this but I’ve found some people are in need of being told it. And of course, I believe it is your right to have cameras in the house to check in on your child(ren); I just ask that there are no cameras where I am sleeping ☺️ I prefer to meet at least once with all parties before taking the job but same day care is possible if all necessary information has been communicated thoroughly and your animal feels safe within my presence!
