Passionate Vet Nurse
Pet care experience
I am a huge animal lover who grew up with cats, dogs, horses, “pocket pets”, and reptiles. I am currently working as a vet tech at a veterinary clinic and have dedicated my life to animals. I have fostered over 500 cats and dogs that were homeless and at risk of euthanasia, and I have dogs of my own. Rosco and Rory are my Golden Retrievers. They love everyone and everything, every new pup they meet is an opportunity to make a new best friend! They welcome our boarding pups with open paws ❤️ I understand how stressful it can be to leave your precious fur babies in the care of another individual, and I am hoping to make that less stressful for you! I can guarantee your animal will love our walks and time together, and I am always happy to send updates and a report on how each visit goes to put your mind at ease! Plus we live on three acres, one of which is fully fenced in which is a lot of fun for the pups to run in! We also love going to hikes and walks on trails and love to take our boarding pups along if the owner approves of walks and hikes. I pay close attention to detail, follow instructions well, and your animals well-being is of the utmost importance to me. I live on three acres. One acre is fully fenced in and I have two friendly pups that love other dogs that will help keep yours company! We do not leave dogs outside unattended and we do not leave dogs that are unfamiliar with each other loose together when someone is not monitoring them. Therefore, I do prefer that dogs are crate trained if they are coming to board in my home. When I board a dog, I am at home for majority of the time they are with me (as I feel the benefit of Rover is that your pets are in a home setting not a kennel). However, if I need to run to the grocery store, etc. I must be able to safely crate any dog. We go for daily walks and hikes as well, and love to play fetch!

Reviews
Kelli recently watched my two pugs and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to do so.
Kelli was such a great sitter for our two cats. She was consistent each day, went above and beyond with her updates and how she took care of our space, and was very thoughtful in how she interacted with our cats. Our shy cat was even the first one to greet her each morning, which says a lot about Kelli’s ability to connect with animals. Overall an excellent experience!
Kelli was incredible! She was extremely flexible with my schedule and provided pictures to show how much fun my dog was having. She was very communicative with updates, also. I will definitely use her again in the future!!
My Golden loved being at Kelli’s with her two Goldens. She sent pictures during his stay and took well care of him. We will certainly use her again in the future.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced secure yard on an acre of land. Dogs are not left outside unattended ever. We take safety very seriously and animals in my care are treated as my own. I do require all dogs be up to date on vaccinations and prescription flea/tick prevention at least a month prior to boarding. I require proof of these vet records prior to boarding. This is for the safety of your pet, current boarding pets, and future boarding pets. Thank you for understanding! We do have a cat in the home and are able to keep them separate from your dogs if needed. However, this is a bit more difficult during extremely busy times of the year (such as major holidays since they are a bit more hectic).
Home
Information Kelli G. would like to know about your pet
Knowing about any special needs ahead of time is always useful! I can cater to just about anything as I am a vet tech and comfortable with medication administration, we just need to know so we ensure your animals get the exceptional care they deserve ❤️ I also love to know what toys and treats are your pups favorite so we can make sure to have some things of comfort on hand for them!
A typical day
We are big on physical AND mental exercise in my home. We love walking and hiking, plus the huge fenced in backyard is great for physical exercise. But we also love to use fun puzzle toys for feeding to help engage dogs minds to create even more fun for them.

Availability
For house sitting, I do not offer constant care. I can offer a midday drop in on the days that I am off, a dinner visit, and then am there 10-12+ hours overnight. I have visits for other clients throughout the day and pets at home that does not allow for constant care. Rest assured, your pets will receive a lot of love and attention.
