Information Kelly D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your animals has any special needs. I like to know their feeding and sleeping routines, favorite activities and any triggers I should know about to try to avoid. When in someone’s home I also want to know any special care instructions for plants, as they are our babies too.

A typical day

I think it’s important to incorporate play and affection every day for pets. I follow their cues and prioritize them feeling safe and comfortable. I take dogs on frequent walks in the neighborhood or explore green spaces near by. I like animals to stay on their typical feeding schedules and accommodate to their sleeping needs that they are most comfortable in.

Kelly was great with slowly building a relationship with my shy dog. She took him on daily walks and checked in daily with updates. My cat loves her! I will book with her again.

Ms. Kelly was awesome. The dogs loved her. She was patient calm and friendly with them. It was their first Rover experience and by the second and third day they looked forward to seeing her. She gave photos and updates which was greatly appreciated and left feedback. Would 100 percent book with her again. Thank you so much!!!!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Kelly was absolutely amazing with Max! From the moment she arrived, it was clear how much she truly loves and cares for animals. She spent quality time playing with Max, keeping him happy, active, and loved while we were away. Knowing Max was getting so much attention and care gave us complete peace of mind. Kelly went above and beyond in every possible way — not only taking incredible care of Max, but also surprising us by leaving a fresh homemade mango bread baking in the oven. Coming home to a happy dog and such a thoughtful gesture was unbelievable! It’s rare to find someone who treats your pet and home like their own, but Kelly does exactly that. Max absolutely loves her, and we couldn’t recommend her more. She’s caring, trustworthy, thoughtful, and truly exceptional. We will definitely be asking Kelly to watch Max again!

Kelly not only took excellent care of our animals she also helped them stay happy and balanced. After meeting with her, I knew they were going to be very well loved and have all their needs met. It was such a relief to know they were in such good hands while we were processing a stressful move. I could not recommend Kelly enough! I will always ask for her first in the future. ☺️
