Your pets are my priority.

Pet care experience

Pets have been a lifetime passion of mine. Working in rescue from a very young age, I've run across lots of different personalities, needs, breeds, and more. In my friend group, I'm always the person people call for cat or dog advice. At home, I've got three dogs (1 Doberman and 2 Borzoi) two of them with their Grand Champion level of showing accomplished and one I'm currently working on. I've got ample experience in other dog sports including obedience, rally, agility, lure coursing, and scentwork. I spent several years working at large dog facilities doing daycare and boarding, so I'm familiar with the requirements dogs have in addition to knowledge on grooming multiple breeds. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can fairly easily meet needs that come up if you're rushing out of town or need someone reliable for a scheduled vacation. I'm here to help! Our dog room was the first room I worked on when I moved into my house! We've got 5x5 kennels for L or XL dogs so there's plenty of room to stretch out and not be confined in a crate. We do offer regular crates as well. We've got plenty of crate pads, bedding, and enrichment toys offered at all times. The dog room offers easy access to outdoor via sliding door and I accompany all of our guests companions outside where they can check out our spacious yard bordered by a 5' privacy fence.

Rover would be so lucky to have Kelley. Her knowledge of animals and animal behavior is impeccable. She is one of the kindest and genourus people I have ever met. I have know her for over 6 years. I have trusted her with my animals and my children. She knows horses, cats, dog and has had a bit of time with parrots. I am honored to be writing about her. Kelley is the whole package. She is never afraid to ask for help if she needs it or if she doesn't know something. The world needs more people like her in it.

Kelley is the most upbeat, skilled and kind dog person I have ever worked with. She's so reliable and so trustworthy. All of my experiences with her have been positive and I don't hesitate to recommend her!

Information Kelley F. would like to know about your pet

We'd like to know breed, age, things they love to do, things they're not comfortable with, do they get along with other dogs/humans, and how can we make sure their stay is a 10/10?

A typical day

We live right across the street from a school that has a huge fenced in area which is where I frequent with my own personal dogs. There are multiple good walking routes close by as well. I have plenty of Kongs and chewing/enrichment toys that keep dogs busy and their brain occupied. I'm also always happy to provide some training as well if needed!
