About Kelly D.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and welfare is my highest priority. My professional experience in animal welfare and rescue helps me identify any concerns early and quickly communicate with you and decide the best course of action. I know what it’s like to place your animals in the trust of someone else and how anxiety-ridden that can be. I promise to treat your pets like my own, which means like family. This goes for your home as well.
Information Kelly D. would like to know about your pet
This is a judgment free zone. Please don’t hesitate to let me know of your pet’s quirks, dislikes, behavioral tendencies or challenges or health concerns. Not only does this help me better ensure a positive experience, I’m also happy to help address anything you’d like and ensure I’m supporting any efforts you’re already working on.
A typical day
I love interacting with dogs, cats or whatever type of animal in ways that meet their individual needs. Does your high intensity need a long walk with plenty of mental stimulation? My tennis shoes are ready! Does your couch potato just want some snuggles and relaxation? No problem! Is your frisky kitty wanting to play with their favorite toy? I can’t wait to send you photos of their crazy antics! It’s all about you and your pet, their wants and needs, and how I can best meet them.

Pet care experience
I have never lived a day in my 40 years of life without a dog. Currently, I share my home with 5 rescue dogs from four countries...from 4lbs to 50lbs. I have worked at doggie day cares, with rescue organizations dealing with dogs during disasters, and fostered puppies as young as a day old for local shelters. While I work mostly with wildlife professionally, my love of dogs is a way of life for me - and I would love to share that with your pup today! I work mostly from home and I'm looking for extra income, and what could be more perfect than working with dogs! I have experience in obedience training, agility, reactive and aggressive dogs, small and large breeds, and giving medication.
Cat care experience
Kelly also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Great experience with Kelly ! Communication was excellent, and I received regular updates and photos that put me at ease. My dogs were well cared for. Reliable, professional, and clearly loves animals—I’d definitely book again.
Kelly was outstanding! She took such great care of our pup and we felt so lucky to have her helping us this week. We will definitely hire her again!
I am so thankful for Kelly! I needed someone last minute and she responded so promptly and was able to help us out! My pup loves playtime with Kelly!!
Kelly is amazing !
