Pet care experience
I’m a dog lover without a dog! However, I’ve been around dogs (and other animals) my whole life—from growing up with a chocolate lab, to volunteering at animal shelters in Thailand, to now dog walking.
Reviews
Kelli took great care of my puppy and has a great way with dogs. She was amazing and trustworthy. I highly recommend her.
Kelli was wonderful! She was able to meet and greet and walk my 6 month puppy on short notice. The appointment was well documented and pictures were provided by Kelli. I highly recommend Kelli to other dog owners.
I've used Kelli several times over the last year. I have an 80lb Brown Lab mix named Buddy that is a big part of our family. He's 10 yrs old and full of love and kisses.. I've used other sitters/walkers in the past but I wasn't getting that warm and fuzzy feeling from them. I felt like it was all they could do to walk Buddy. When they would sit with him they'd be on their phones or tablets paying little to no attention to the dog. With Kelli, I noticed immediately that this girl took her time with my Buddy and he took to her within minutes. Some people just give off that dog friendly scent I guess ... On walks she wouldn't be head down in a phone. During sitting time she would play with him and give him the same attention I would. This made me and my wife feel at ease when we would take off for a few days. The last thing I want to have to worry about on vacation or even a night out is my dog, and believe me, it's ruined many a time when I should of been relaxing but instead was worried about Buddy. The moral of this story is Kelli has been a blessing to us. If you're the kind of person who often likes animals more than people like me, you can now go out or go away and not have to worry about your pooch. Kelli is can be trusted to give your fur baby the attention and care they need. I think she can also take care of your cats too .. Feeding and watering .. Walking a cat is weird.
Kelli is wonderful! She kept me updated and even sent me photos of my dog on his walk! Such a relief to have a reliable, trust-worthy person walking Toby while I am at work.

Information Kelli D. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know your dog's behavior around other people and dogs. And also their energy level, so I can properly caffein-ate for our play date! ;) I don't have any breed preferences - I love 'em all!
A typical day
I would love to bring your dog to a nearby park to play! Your dog and I will walk for as long as he/she wants! I'm very active and love being outdoors. I'll play fetch with your fur baby until my arm hurts.
