Pet care experience
I have a bachelor's degree in Animal Science where I specialized in companion animal care. I have various experience of animal care from companion animals [dogs, cats, small animals, fish, birds], livestock and even wild animals! Prior to starting with Rover, I have worked at Vet clinics, doggie day cares, a wildlife rehab, privately dog sitting through word of mouth, managing a grooming salon and managing a vet clinic and a local rescue! You can say I have a wide variety of experience! In result of all these experiences, it has lead me to create my own animal kingdom! I have 2 dogs, 2 cat & a very handsome horse! :) I am just head of heels for each and every one of them. I can handle a variety of temperaments and breeds! I've grown up with animals my whole life and strive to continue that. Which leads me to say, I can watch over your scaly, feathered & pocket pets! I believe animals, specifically pets, are family. They deserve the best of the best and with that they will have the best with me! I strive to fit the needs of each and every dog/cat from couch potatoes to the next Olympic Athlete! They will get the proper care they need.
Reviews
We were very happy with Kelly's services. She was friendly and kind to our dog and was very good about getting back to us in a timely fashion and letting us know how things were going with her visit. We will definitely ask her back!
Kelly rocks. Reliable. Likeable and Finn loved her !!
Kelly was outstanding! I had a semi-emergency situation and she took great care of Willis. He was in better health when I came back from out of town. That meant the world!!
Kelly was great with Willis and sent lots of updates and photos. I'd definitely recommend her and book her again.

I am a firm believer of caring for other's pets as my own. If there is a specific need your pet needs, I will try my absolute best to accomodate for him/her! I want them to be as comfortable as they would if you were home. As I know, many families have cameras within their homes, I would kindly ask for you to disclose that information. I have had some poor experiences with pet owners and cameras- privacy issues to be more clear. If you do not feel comfortable disclosing that information, I completely respect that, but I would not be the best choice for you.
Information Kelly C. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed preference, but I would love to know if they're on a set schedule: do they eat at certain times, are they crate trained, allowed on the furniture, allergies, medication, dog aggression when we go on walks, etc.. Every nitty gritty details about your furry baby, I'd love to know about!
A typical day
I love hiking and walking trails, I'd love to have a junior wilderness explorer to tag along with me! Kongs, balls, frisbee galore! Unless you have a couch potato: belly rubs, ear scratches and cuddle time!
Services
Kelly can watch in your home
Availability
I do work a full time day job, so if you are looking for someone who can visit your pet every 2 to 4 hours, I will not be the best fit for you. I wish I could be at multiple places at once, but that is not a skill I've not obtained yet. 😂
