I will socialize with your pets

Pet care experience

People with family pets enjoy my sincere natural interaction with them. I always felt connected with animals since as long I can remember. I've always learned so much more from animals than they have ever learned from me. People have commented that I treat their pets as my own family, with respect and lots of unconditional love. I have worked as an Animal Care Center Manager and an Animal Clinic manager along with being a vet tech and surgery tech for approximately 4 years in animal welfare. I have supported public education regarding pet care, spay/neutering and encouraged funding for those who want to keep their pets but can't afford to. I have fostered animals for several years and have a strong sense for what an animal is needing or wanting. I believe animals were put in my life as a little girl to help me know everything is "going to be okay." I feel a debt to pets or strays as I know how important they are in society.

Kelli is one of the most caring people I know! She is a huge animal lover and has a wonderful way with all types of critters. She treats every animal she encounters as if it were her own...with kindness, compassion and concern for their well being.

Kelli is born to take care of animals! She is not only brilliant with cats and dogs, she helped me with my chickens when I was away. Very conscientious and goes above and beyond what you would expect. I highly recommend her!

Kelli is an experienced, loving, and highly responsible dog (and cat) caregiver. Her intelligence, knowledge and empathy give her an ideal talent for monitoring dogs for health or emotional issues. She has taken care of my animals on multiple occasions and they are healthy, happy, and well upon my return. She is my "go-to" person for dog and cat care.

Information Kelli J. would like to know about your pet

I am not against pit bulls or staffordshire terriers. But my experience has been when this breed is no longer with their family, they can become scared and then defensive. For the protection of my own family, I would want to meet with your pet first. I have worked with incredible, sweet, loving, playful pit bulls so I don't want to just "close the door" to them. I also have experienced ANY breed that can carry the same social issues.

A typical day

I'm a counselor (LPC) and have worked with humans and animals for years. My experience has been, an animal has far better therapeutic instincts than I have ever had. I am open to one day working with humans and using pet therapy. But for now, I want to enjoy the animals myself and provide real security to people with pets as I would want for my furry family.
