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.

I am very happy with Kelly and her care for my pets. She does an excellent job. Her love for animals is quite evident. I have one dog in particular, who is anxious and fearful of strangers. Kelly won her over within the day of her first visit. I look forward to hiring her again, any time that I need someone to watch my pets, and I highly recommend her.

Kelly was awesome! I asked for a drop in to quickly feed my cats while I was in the hospital and she went above and beyond. She picked my keys up, fed the cats and even cleaned the litterboxes without me asking her to. I would highly recommend.
