Safety, trust & environment

I live in a 3rd floor apartment, with a big deck and large shared patio on the ground floor of the building, and the building is just around the corner from a neighborhood park. In my care, your pets will get the exercise and social interaction they want and need, ample bathroom breaks, fed in a regular and timely manner, as well as kept clean and safe and loved.

Information Kelli D. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds of dogs and cats; please let me know if your pet needs any extra care such as meds, frequent potty breaks, etc

A typical day

I like to follow your pets lead when it comes to how we spend out time together. I love to provide long walks and play times for the more energetic fur babies, but I also thoroughly enjoy just hanging out and giving them pets, cuddles, and treats!

Loving caring and cuddly petsitter!

Pet care experience

I have such a strong love for dogs and cats, and passion for animal care; I grew up training and caring for our family dog, both as a puppy and when she was elderly and ill and needed various medications, as well as working as a neighborhood dog walker and dog and cat sitter. I have experience working with all different types of animals, skittish, shy, aggressive, energetic, young, elderly, sick, healthy, and experience caring for and walking multiple dogs at once. As your pet sitter, I will care for and love your fur babies as my own and I will do it happily!
