Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in back yard and dog park that we are frequent in. My dog is very hyperactive so we are constantly going on long (and very needed) walks to let out some energy. In another persons home, I’ll treat your dog as though they are my own! I love taking care of the animals & will accommodate your schedule/ specific needs of your pet!

Information Kelly D. would like to know about your pet

I feel comfortable around any and every dog. I do ask for you to let me know any specific needs your dog might have and if they’re people friendly/dog friendly, that way I know what to look out for while walking them. We can always meet up beforehand so you can get to meet me and for me to be around him or her first! :)

A typical day

I love walking the trails near my home and finding new trails to walk on. Wherever I am your dog will enjoy a nice long walk. Tug-a-war is an absolute must and I love trying to teach them new tricks. If you have a fenced in yard, fetch will 100% happen!!

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs since I was little. I have a chocolate lab named Kelso who is 7. I love dog walks and my family/friends have relied on me to watch their pets, groom, feed, and walk them :) I have a mini golden doodle, Oakley. He’s full of energy! We’re constantly walking & he would love to meet new furry friends as well!

One of my dogs can be super skittish but she took to Kelly right away! I highly recommend her for walks if you're unable to take your dogs yourself! She's great!

Kelly was awesome housesitting for our THREE dogs while we were away. Our dogs loved her. She kept us updated and kept our house clean. We appreciate the extra mile she went to go out and buy Neosporin for our dog who got a cut while we were gone. We will definitely be hiring Kelly again!
