Information Kelly C. would like to know about your pet

How to approach them, because for some pups, you need to give them space to smell you and give them time to let you pet them. Getting to know what they like and what they don’t is also very important!

A typical day

Play catch, tug, use treats for tricks, stimulate smelling for treats, runs Normally would find a place with a lot of trees and plants so they can explore.

We had such a great experience with Kelly! Kelly took amazing care of our dog while we were away and kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages. It was clear from the start that they truly love animals, as our dog warmed up to them right away. We would absolutely book with Kelly again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!

This was my third time using Kelly’s services. She was great with Autumn and took pictures of Autumn walking outside everyday. She is very responsive and flexible. I am thankful she is in my area and can occasionally pet sit my dog.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
