Safety, trust & environment

I am unable to bring clients pets into my own house because my animals are reactive, but when taking of pets in the clients home I would start by letting the animal get to know me while the owner is present. Once a level of trust is established, I will then check out the areas where I will be with the pet and ensure I know where food, toys, and leashes are kept. After that, I will ask the owner if there is anything else I need to be aware of in order to best care for their furbaby.

Information Kelly B. would like to know about your pet

I will need to know if there is any medication they require and any behavioral issues of any kind, what their likes and dislikes are, and any dietary restrictions.

A typical day

My main goal when taking care of your animals is to make sure they are comfortable with me and that I ensure that they have adequate love and care.

We have had Kelly look after our animals on several occasions. Both for check-ins and house sitting. She is fantastic and we would recommend her to anyone who needs a trustworthy and capable pet-sitter.

Kelly is fantastic. She is dependable, and listens to instructions well. I have 2 cats, 1 is people shy, and they both warmed up to Kelly. I will definitely be calling her again. I have also recommended her to my family. Great personality, and perfect for my two boys

Kelly was wonderful with Belle. We certainly recommend her to take care of your precious furry family. Belle was well taken care of and look forward to contacting her to watch our girl during our next adventure. We will be repeat customers.

Kelly was great! She was prompt for her visits and stayed the full time with our dogs. She administered meds for our senior dog great. We will definitely try to book with Kelly again.
