Reliable, caring and professional

Pet care experience

My experience includes caring for many different breeds, ages and energy levels. All with care and consideration. I'm well versed at walking, feeding, administering medication and handling situations as they occur calmly and rationally. I've worked with animal organizations for many years including Pets Project, which helps elders keep pets in their home. My hands on experience covers many different types of circumstances and includes those with the dogs which are/have been part of my family. My apartment in the LES currently features a small dog who is relaxed and enjoys company. It's a comfy place with hardwood floors, throw rugs, furniture dogs are welcome to chill on and windows to have a look at what's going on outside. If your pet needs extra exercise I will run or bike with them. Special needs/requests - just let me know. Meet my pets: My dog is an 11 year-old laid back, small, non-shedding breed. She enjoys company, walks, chasing squirrels, air conditioning, snowy days, cool rain, wind in her face, and of course napping : )

Our dogs had a cozy and fun stay with Kelli. She is lovely and her own dog Starr was very sweet about 2 new dogs in her home. We got frequent updates and Kelli was very flexible when we needed to change our pickup. Very responsible and experienced with dogs.

Kelli is a great dog owner so I know she is a great dog sitter. I have known her for over 30 years and seen how she is with her dog Starr since she got her and she is a wonderful caregiver. I would trust her 150% with any of my animals, and she is really intuitive when it comes to special needs animals. I dog sit for friends often and everything I know I learned from her.

Information Kelli M. would like to know about your pet

There are many things I would like to know about the dog prior to sitting. Among them: age, health, medications, personality traits (aggression, separation issues, etc), likes/dislikes and other information. The more I know the better it is for doggie's well being.

A typical day

As a consultant with project based work I'm able to work from home. This gives me a lot of time with doggie, for regular petting breaks and walks! I live near a park/playground which has a nice shady area. Also, I go to East River Park and we explore. Sometimes go for jog, picnic or just sit in the shade with a book, treats and a bowl of water. Depends on the weather (take it easy in extreme heat), how the dog is feeling and their energy level. It's important to base activity on the individual dog, their age and health.
