I am currently a student at Purdue University, studying Veterinary Technology, so I have somewhat of a flexible schedule. I can almost guarantee care not only in the evenings, but also in the mornings. I have a car accessible on campus, and have managed pet care for others and college courses before, and find that it is easily balanced for me.

I would like to be told in advance for any pets with special needs. Although I still welcome them, it’s just something that I like being aware of beforehand!

A typical day

My favorite thing to do with clients pets in the past has been going on walks. I love being active, so I love long walks. I also enjoy snuggles, as I think pets are the best snuggle buddies!

Pet care experience

I’ve always been an animal lover, and I feel as if animals have always loved me. Neighbors and family friends have always asked me to take care of their pets because they know I will do a good job at caring for their animals while also being responsible and mess free. I am open to compromise with my prices and promise that I will give you a bang for your buck. I have always had animals in my home and have cared greatly for them. I aspire to be a vet tech and enjoy volunteering at my local humane society. I have lots of love to give for your 4 legged babies!

I highly recommend Chelsey for the care of any type of pet. She is compassionate, dependable, and consistently goes above and beyond to ensure the animals in her care are healthy, comfortable, and well cared for. As a dedicated volunteer at the Humane Society, Chelsey has excelled in a wide range of responsibilities, including cleaning animal enclosures, providing fresh food and water, administering medications, and offering enrichment activities that support the animals' physical and emotional well-being. She approaches every task with care and attention to detail. Chelsey is exceptionally reliable, arriving on time for every shift and always ready to help wherever she's needed. One of her greatest strengths is her keen observation skills. She is meticulous in her work and quick to recognize even subtle changes in an animal's behavior or routine, allowing potential health or welfare concerns to be addressed promptly. I would trust Chelsey without hesitation to care for any pet. Her dedication, responsibility, and genuine love for animals make her an outstanding caregiver, and I give her my highest recommendation.

I’ve known Chelsey for years, and she is one of the most dependable and responsible people I know! When she watched my dog, Belle, and my cat, Dom, I knew they were in the best hands. Chelsey genuinely loves animals, and has fostered/raised many kittens. She took Belle on daily walks at her favorite park and even treated her to a pup cup, which Belle absolutely loved. Both of my pets were so happy, well cared for, and loved while I was away. I had complete peace of mind knowing they were with someone I trust, and I would highly recommend Chelsey to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter.
