Hi! My name is Kellin and I have been owning animals, walking dogs, and house sitting for all sorts of pets for about 10 years. I work full-time at a nearby college and when I’m not working, I like to work with animals, be outside, and get into some good fiction! When working with dogs and cats, I am loving, attentive, and sensitive to a pet's boundaries. Just like people, our pets have buttons they don't want pushed, and my goal as your pet's caregiver is to make sure they love seeing me because I'm exciting to be around, safe for them, and because I genuinely want to care for them! Raising pets is so rewarding, and also is a huge investment of courage, love and training. When you leave your pets in my care, you can rest assured that any commands, routines and rules that you have in place for your pet will be followed in a way that ensures I don't undo any of the training you have worked so hard to develop with your pet. I have years of experience working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I also grew up in a multi-dog household, and have 2 years' experience house-sitting for multi-dog households as well. My husband and I currently have two cats, Sylvia and Daphne, and I am no stranger to having to clean up after animals, be it in a litter box, a yard or stress corner. It just comes with the territory! I think that in another life where I won the lottery I would have opened an animal sanctuary on a beautiful piece of land for abandoned pets. In this life, I act on this fantasy by caring for pets who mean the world to their families!
