Pet care experience

Pets cared for like family

I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and genuinely love spending time with them. I have had a cat since I was five years old and multiple dogs since I was seven, so caring for pets has always been a big part of my life. Over the years, I have pet sat for neighbors, family, and friends while they were away on long trips, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure their pets felt safe and comfortable at home. I always have both the pet’s and the owner’s best interest in mind, and I truly love helping animals whenever they need care, attention, or patience. I understand that every animal has a different personality, and I always take the time to help them feel comfortable and cared for. I have also volunteered at animal shelters, which has made me even more passionate about giving back and helping animals in any way I can. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or shy and nervous at first, I will always treat them with kindness, patience, and lots of love.

Safety, trust & environment

I always prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I have a pretty big backyard with a tall fence, so I can easily accommodate your animals and give them space to safely play and explore. I always make sure pets stick to their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel relaxed and secure while their owners are away. I am very patient with new animals and always take the time to learn their personalities, needs, and comfort levels. Your pet’s safety will always come first, and I will make sure they are always on a leash, walked only in the areas you designate, and placed in any crate or area you prefer when needed. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I will always treat them like my own and keep both the pet’s and owner’s best interests in mind.

Connelley stayed the night and gave my guy great care. She followed all of his instructions to the T and was easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend.

Thanks so much, Connelley, for caring for Ducky! I appreciate you working with his meal schedule and being patient on walks with him. I'm sure that he loved the time outside and the puzzle toys. Thanks also for keeping me up-to-date with messages and pictures. It was great to know that was doing well, and I don't think we could have ask for a better first experience with Rover. :)

Connelley took great care of Bentley! We came home to a happy, tired puppy. She was a great communicator and followed our instructions well. Will definitely use her again!

Connelley was so sweet and caring to Buck! Buck is very stubborn and likes to escape for attention so it was so nice to have someone so trustworthy and someone who paid attention to details/instructions so thoughtfully! I would absolutely recommend Connelley to anyone and everyone!

Schedule

I am currently EMT school, studying to get my EMT license so my days consist of reading and studying. Additionally, I am a college athlete so I do try to work out almost every day and live in active lifestyle. I do not currently have a job because I am in EMT school, which means my schedule is extremely flexible and I would be able to bring study materials to your home or take breaks to come take care of the pets anytime!

I would like to know if you have any specific regimens or things that your pet prefers or dislikes. If your dog has any medication’s or an If your dog has any medications or a sensitive to any types of food or allergens, that would be helpful as well. Additionally, I would like to know whether you would be comfortable if I took them or on my neighborhood or to parks, or in Greenbelt areas, etc.
