Pet care experience
Fully Covid-19 vaccinated! The marvelous thing about this service is that it helps me get my much needed dose of dog love in. I can't have my own dog because my building doesn't permit it, but thanks to Rover, I now have more ways of getting my doggie fix in than just borrowing my family and friend's pups. I grew up loving and nurturing three dogs whose statures and personalities varied considerably. Georgie was a Standard Poodle/Old English Sheep Dog mix, she was sweet and mellow. Ginger was a Snoodle (Schnauzer/Poodle Mix), she was sweet, but shy and suffered from anxiety issues. Last but by no means least, was our little ball of energy, Gigi (Chihuahua/Yorkie/Toy Poodle Mix). As a result, I feel comfortable taking care of pets with all types of personalities and different sizes. I have looked after my family and friends, homes and pets since my teens, and I did not begin to care for other homes and pets outside of my immediate circle until I began to do a year's service with Americorps and needed to supplement my income. After my year of service ended, I decided that I enjoyed looking after people's homes and pets so much that I would make it my full-time job, here I am are four years later and still loving it. Because I have been doing this for so long I have looked after all sorts of animals; chickens, turkeys, geese, rats, cats, fish, turtles, dogs, birds... I'm sure the list will continue to grow. My year of service made my passion for helping those in need and providing services to make my community a better place even stronger. I hope I can continue to do so for a long time to come. I always strive to leave the houses that I look after, in good or better condition than I found them and would love to give your fur or non-furry family and home the outstanding care they deserve so that you can take care of your everyday life and/or travel without any worry or anxiety.
Reviews
Chelsea is great! Very reliable and great with our animals! We will definitely be hiring her again!
Thank you so much Chelsea! Charlie and Scout were so well taken care of and happy when we returned last night. The house looked great too. Thanks for all the extra things you did while we were away!!
She’s amazing. Provided lots of updates and took care of my pups just how they needed
Chelsea is so great with our puppy! She’s a great, committed and reliable dog sitter. She goes the extra mile to make sure your dog is happy and communicates with you so you’re aware!

Information Chelsea W. would like to know about your pet
Does your fur baby have any quirks? What are their favorite things to do? What's their temperament? Is there anything I can do to make the transition of not having their loved one around easier? It would also be good to know about specific commands you use with them, so I can communicate with them easily. What rules do you have in place for them, e.g., are they allowed on furniture? I also want to know if they have allergies, your vet's name/number/location, how much exercise you wish them to have. The more information you provide, the better. I'm a big fan of details. I believe that good communication and details will ensure that the experience for everybody (you, your pet and me) is the best possible one. I am a pet sitter who believes in the equal status of all animals so I have no preference as to the type or breed of your loved one.
A typical day
Most of the time I will let the dog lead where our walks take us unless the owner has a specific route they would like us to go. Snuggling and cuddling are among some of my favorite activities (there aren't a whole lot of things that are much better than lounging on the couch with a good book and a sweet animal). If you have looked at some of my photos you might notice that I enjoy celebrating the holidays with my furry friends. The Easter Egg Hunt with Molly was probably my favorite, I made sure to take video and sent it to her people so they got to see that she didn't miss out on their usual holiday tradition.
