Safety, trust & environment
My fiancé and I have a spacious two bedroom, one bathroom condo with a living room area in a building facing a grassy courtyard that’s close to multiple parks and a walking trail. I will spend the majority if not all of the day with your furry friend.

Information Kelly A. would like to know about your pet
It would be very helpful to have a written text message or note documenting eating times, portions, triggers/fears (squirrels, etc.), bedtime procedure, potty times, walk duration, and treat frequency.
A typical day
I am happy to play inside or take your pup to the park for some playtime in the afternoon if they are dog park friendly. I also try to leave your dog alone as infrequently as possible - if I am doing dog-friendly errands I will take him/her with me to places like the farmer’s market, the park, the bank, etc. if they have separation anxiety.

Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Kelly and I'm a designer who works from home every day. My fiancé Alex and I recently lost our 18-year-old senior soul dog, Greta. She had special needs and we spent every second of every day caring for her. In addition to caring for Greta, we have been pet sitting a loyal “repeat customer” group of local dogs and cats together for 6 years. We focus on saving availability for repeat furry friends, but still come back on Rover occasionally when we have availability to welcome new ones! I’ve had over 10 pets since I was a child and miss having animals to care for! All of our friends and family rely on us to care for their pets because we treat them as if they were our own, and our standard of care is very high. We have lots of love, patience, and experience to offer your fur baby.
Reviews
Kelly was super friendly and agreeable. She met with Foxtrot and I prior to her first walk with him so he could meet her ahead of time. Then she sent a picture and video of him and gave me an update with how the walk went. Overall she was great!
Kelly has watched our sweet Remi for the last 2 years! She is very quick to respond with pictures and updates when away! Remi has stayed with Kelly for short weekend trips, week long vacations, and evening/afternoon walks! She cared for Remi like her own! We were so sad to move away as she became one of Remi’s favorite sitters! Can’t recommend Kelly enough! She truly is the best!!
I had to go away for a few days, and due to the fact my beloved dog Asia has a tumor, and was unwell, I couldn't take her on the plane with me. I was so nervous leaving her for 3 days, but I needn't have worried as Kelly looked after her as though she were her own. She gave her medication, and gentle walks, (my dog is 13), she pushed her round the block in her stroller. I can't recommend Kelly enough. She takes care of all pets as though they are her own.
BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! No detail was too small when Kelly cared for my sweet George like her own. He had the best time, was absolutely PAMPERED and showered with love. She works from home, I received so many updates and photos it made each day so easy. I always worry that no one will care for my dog the way I do - but Kelly does!!! She goes above and beyond for my George & is the best dog walker and caretaker for my pup ever! I’m not being dramatic, but 5 stars simply isn’t enough. My dog is now your biggest fan! This review is entitled: I WILL NOT TRUST MY DOG TO BE LOVED BY ANYONE ELSE BESIDES HER EVER AGAIN! (She was the best and I will be using her from here on out.)
