Availability

I am home to give extra attention and care for your fur-baby. I am very flexible in my schedule with drop-off and pick-up times. I would love to provide a loving environment for you and your dog. I provide bowls, natural human grade treats by "Full Moon" and "Pet Wants", dog beds, blankets, toys, two kennels (if needed) for up to 20 pounds and 50 pounds, and poop bags. Please note: *on an overnight booking with extended care more than four hours, I will manually adjust the price to reflect daily daycare rates.

I have a six-foot fenced backyard. I provide walks on a regular basis. My fur baby was Feebee. She was 12 years old and was a retired therapy dog, a gentle-kind soul. Feebee passed on July 31, 2023. My home is quiet and calming.

Information Kelly C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs. Where is their favorite place to be pet? Do they like a blanket in bed? I am experienced with taking care of special need dogs.

A typical day

Activities are catered to your dog's needs. Toy play, yard play, going for walks, or lots of cuddles are all options. Newport is a great town for dog walks.

Pet care experience

**I have opened my calendar for reservations from May 16 - August 30, 2026.** I have cared and been around animals all my life from living on a farm as a child to raising cats and dogs. I have over 20 years of experience taking care of dogs with medical conditions. I am experienced in giving injectable medications (insulin or fluids). I retired from the Army in December 2021 after 28 years of service. I know the difficulties of finding a comfortable, loving dog-sitter while working long hours and traveling for work or fun. I would like to provide a safe, welcoming home for your doggie. I provide pick-up and drop-off within two miles for a small fee. I live by Newport Hospital. I can pickup outside of the two mile radius for an additional fee based upon travel time. I am more than happy to provide pictures. As of March 1, 2025, I am unable to care for dogs that do not get along with other dogs. I care for up to three dogs at a time. The neighborhood I live in has many dogs therefore walking a dog that doesn't get along with other dogs is not safe in my area.

Kelly was wonderful: prompt in her responses to my questions, and warm and friendly when we dropped our dog off with her for the day. It's obvious she knows and cares a lot about dogs--she immediately bonded with mine. She sent pics during the day and gave him lots of TLC while my husband and I were away. We could not have asked for a better dog-sitter!

Kelly is a PRO. Ollie is always very happy when he is there. Kelly is excellent at communication and sending pictures. We were very confident that our pup was in good hands.

I had to book care for my Yogi last minute and Kelly was so accommodating! She responded quickly, took amazing care of him, sent me updates/photos and fed/walked him. I could tell he was happy and comfortable. Super reliable, I’ll definitely book again! THANK YOU!

Kelly was a terrific sitter for my labradoodle, Leo. She was very communicative, sent, photos, and kept me up to date on his walks, potty, and play.
