10 Years of Petsitting Experience
Pet care experience
A tiny bit about me:: I have three sweet furbabies - two dogs (an 8 year old and a 4 year old) and a 2 year old cat. They are my children and I have unconditional love for all three of them. I have always had animals and have always had a love and passion for them. That being said, I treat every animal that I sit for as if they were my own. Lots of love, playtime, treats, exercise and relaxation. I am currently not working right now because of school, so this allows me to have much more flexibility and allows me to give your animal the attention and care that he/she deserves. I have cared for puppies all the way up to seniors, as well as kittens and adult cats. I have about 10 years worth of experience for petsitting for friends and family, and have done multiple Rover gigs this past year (2021). I have also volunteered with Nashville Humane Association by doing doggie dates and overnight stays for dogs currently in the shelter to give them some room to breathe away from all the other pups in there. Although I do have my own animals, I will not be bringing them with me at any point - my fiance can look over them while I am on Rover duty.
Reviews
Kelley is so great!! She is so professional and loves our dogs as her own. We came home to a clean home and two tired good dogs. We will definitely be hiring Kelley for all our future dog sitting needs!
Kelley was AMAZING!! She dog sat and stayed at our house so our doggy was comfortable! She was so flexible- even picked our pup up from another house and brought her home for us. She sent pictures and kept us updated throughout her stay. Kelley took our baby to the dog park because we told her we usually take her everyday. HIGHLY recommend using Kelley and I will be using her again in the future!

Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I will communicate with the client about the pet's specific feeding timeline and any special needs that have to be accommodated such as medication. Walks? I got you. Please let me know if there are any rules (such as no animals on furniture, or required to sleep in crate during the night) and I will be sure to honor those.
Information Kelley H. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if the dog has any special needs or unique behaviors that I should be aware of (for example - is the dog a professional escape artist - or is he/she a shoe chewer?) Also, does the dog have any allergies/medical needs? I am not trained to inject medications although I can give oral medicine to your pet. Is your dog/cat fully up-to-date on his/her shots? These are questions I will likely ask about during the meet-and-greet. I also do not want to put myself in a position of dogsitting a dog who is known to be aggressive towards people or other animals. Depending on the level and type of aggression, it could be a dealbreaker. I will likely still move forward to a meet-and-greet to get the feel for the dog before deciding to move forward. Please be honest with me on this matter.
A typical day
Let me know if your pet(s) have a favorite park that they love going to, we will go there! Or we can just go for a stroll around the neighborhood. If I am overnight sitting, we will come back after a walk, relax, and the pup will get showered with attention until bedtime :)
Services
Kelley can watch in your home
Availability
As mentioned, I am a full time student, yet only have to go to campus two days out of the week (Tuesdays and Thursdays), so my flexible schedile allows me to be around to let your dog out, feed/waters, and walks.
