Busy family with cuddles to spare

My husband and I have always had cats or dogs in her home. We are comfortable with most medications and typical pet behavior. Beyond our experience as long time pet owners, we have adopted rescues, fostered sibling puppies and pet sat for friends and relatives. Many of our photos are of the late and great Watson, my best boy. Please ask specific questions if needed.

Chelsy has always had a special gift for connecting with animals. I have seen firsthand the love, patience, and understanding she brings to caring for them. She took an abused rescue dog under her wing, and I watched him blossom from an anxious, frightened pup into a secure, loving, and happy dog. He became part of our family as well, and it was a privilege to watch him grow old surrounded by the love and security he deserved. He passed away as an old dog, supported by his loving family, and will always be missed. I also watched Chelsy open her home as a foster mom to puppies suffering from parvovirus. It was a heartbreaking situation, but she provided them with consistent, compassionate care and unwavering attention. I cannot imagine a better place for those puppies to have been during such a difficult time. What makes Chelsy special is that caring for animals is not simply something she does—it is part of who she is. She has an instinctive ability to read animals, understand their needs, and make them feel safe and loved. Whether an animal needs patience, reassurance, medical attention, or simply companionship, she seems to know exactly what to do. I would trust Chelsy with any pet without hesitation. Anyone fortunate enough to have her care for their animal can feel confident that their pet will be treated with the same love and attention she gives her own.

Schedule

Between my husband and I, we are generally flexible during the daytime and commonly work from home. Ideally, we plan to schedule pet sitting on days when we can be available at home with your pet. We are generally home in the evenings with early bedtimes. I would not expect pets to be home alone for more than 4 hours at a time.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a generally busy home with young children ranging from toddler to preteen. We would hope that your pet would be prepared for this level of chaos and attention. We have a fenced backyard. We prefer well trained visitors without escape artist tendencies. Our family has decided now is not the best time to permanently add a pet into our home and are exploring pet sitting an outlet for animal love and abundant cuddles. Please reach out if you have questions or would like to see if our family may be a good fit for your pet while you are away.

A typical day

On weekends and after work/school, we are often out and about exploring parks and trails in our area on foot and by bike. Yes, we even have a dog trailer for little legs and long adventures.
