Dog-lover with a ton of experience!
Pet care experience
Background Experience: I grew up with dogs, mostly Labrador retrievers and other large breeds. Most of my childhood included a chocolate lab, a yellow lab, and a flat-coated retriever. Having those three in my life taught me what it meant to be responsible. I have a lifetime of experience caring for them from puppy-hood all the way into old-age. I grew accustomed to their high levels of energy and how much exercise they need to stay healthy! Most of my chores revolved around my pets. My chores included feeding, walking, bathing, and last but not least poop patrol! Our dogs were truly a part of our family and were always very social. I am very familiar with introducing new animals to the group. I am comfortable with assisting in a variety of training styles. I also have experience working with dogs that have special needs including a seizure disorder. Schedule/ Lifestyle: I live an active life and love the outdoors. I work at a school in Fair Oaks (I'm free after 4:00 pm Monday through Friday) have a relatively open schedule in the afternoons and evenings. I am also available on the weekends! I am extremely patient and a fast learner.
Reviews
Kelly came over a couple of days early to meet us. She is very friendly and warm. My house has some inconveniences, like missing remotes and no microwave, but she made me feel very comfortable and told me not to worry about it. Sophie is a really anxious dog and sometimes has trouble warming up to people, but Kelly was amazing with her. I'm sure Sophie had some separation anxiety and wasn't herself when I was away, but Kelly was extremely patient, and provided photos and updates while I was away. Having Kelly taking care of Sophie and my home while I was away allowed me to relax more on a getaway than I've been able to do before, and everything was just the way I left it when I returned. Except the fridge was more organized! =]
Kelly took great care of our pup and our home over a long vacation! Could not be happier--she sent us regular updates and spent a lot of time with our Rosie. Highly recommended! We hope to work with Kelly again for our next vacation!
Kelly was an amazing sitter and super respectful house guest. All three of our dogs loved her and we will definitely book with her again.
Kelly is great. She is responsive, friendly, and loving towards our pups!

Information Kelly C. would like to know about your pet
I love all dogs! I have no weight limit or breed preferences. When it comes to your furry family member I just need to know their feeding schedule, training commands, any medications or allergies they may have, and what types of toys they like!
A typical day
I live on a large property (fully enclosed) that is perfect for playing fetch or just running around! We have tall green grass for your four-legged friend to lounge in and we get the occasional jack rabbit ready for a race! I also enjoy hiking, with your permission I'd love to bring your pooch along!
