Loving & Reliable Pet Care

Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for my parents’ pets, including their 17-year-old cat and previous golden retriever (🥲). I also have additional pet sitting experience for dogs and cats, and I’m comfortable with pets of all ages—from energetic puppies to senior animals who need a gentler pace. I’m currently living in Boston for the summer and have a flexible schedule for walks, drop-in visits, and attentive care. I’m active, responsible, and genuinely enjoy getting outside for daily walks and spending quality time with animals. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize comfort, safety, and consistent communication with owners, including photo updates after each visit.

Kelly was fantastic. She took great care of Wellington and provided updates every step of the way. I would highly recommend her and look forward to using her again. In the future.

Kelly is one of the most caring, trustworthy, and dependable people I know. She has watched my dog multiple times, and I have always felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in her care. It's clear that she truly loves animals and treats every pet like her own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Kelly is attentive, responsible, and great at communicating, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I would wholeheartedly recommend Kelly to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet caregiver. Your pets will be in wonderful hands!

Kelly LOVES dogs more than anyone I know. Unfortunately, she's not able to have her own dog as a student. Let her show her love to your dog, you will not regret it (and your dog will thank you later!). She's very responsible and organized, and more than anything she'll make sure your dog is well taken care of while you're unable to do so.
