Fun for your Furry Friend!

Pet care experience

I've had dogs my whole life. Currently I have a 2 year old rescue dog. She is full of energy and is the first dog I've had to train to calm herself. She loves to play frisbee, chase balls, or shred anything soft and fluffy that may have been left unattended. Her superpower is eating! Before that I had an English Mastiff who topped out at 185lbs in her prime, she and I volunteered as a Pet Partners therapy dog. As a team we had extensive experience navigating a variety of facilities and visiting all ages including small children in the Tails for Reading program, memory care patients at local elder care facilities and all levels of patients at our local hospital. I have experience with sporting dogs who have a ton of energy, wiggle butt puppies who are just in love with life, and small dogs who sometimes have BIG personalities. If you are looking for a responsible adult to check in on your pet(s) and/or to walk them I am your person. I would love to get to know all about your pet; such as what words they know (sit, wait, off, etc) that they like to have the blinds left open so they can see outside, they like belly rubs, or prefer to have their ears scratched, they need a pill pocket to take their meds, or have a special topper for their food....you get it :-) I like to help with shoveling a path for the little and/or older dogs if it snows when I visit.

I highly recommend Kelly! This is the second time we have had her in to watch our dog for the weekend. She is professional and a great communicator and we know our dog is in great hands. Thank you, Kelly!

Kelly was a professional from start to finish! My dog is 11 years old and I’ve not left her in the hands of many people. Kelly gave me peace of mind walking my dog!! So great!

Kelly was fantastic! I would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again. She sent updates and photos on how Zoey was doing at each visit and I know Zoey was in good hands. Thank you, Kelly!

Safety, trust & environment

I am careful to latch crates, close doors and lock fences just as you do. On walks I like to use verbal instructions that your dog understands so we have a fun time! I make sure leashes and harnesses are secure, (it is best to be prepared for.... SQUIRREL!!). In the home I will respect any rules/boundaries you have set for your pet(s) (such as staying off furniture).

Information Kelly E. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know if your dog will come reliably when called or if they need to be leashed in the yard, if they have any aggression or protective tendencies (towards a food/toy, other animals,people etc). Are they a picky eater, do they have any meds they need to take? Do they fear thunderstorms? Basically anything that will help me keep them safe and happy during our time together. Having grown up with German Shepards and being a former owner of a English Mastiff, I am comfortable with large and giant breeds. I also enjoy the little "fluffernuffers" and bully breeds.

A typical day

Your pup and I will walk in your neighborhood, play fetch, frisbee or whatever it is your pet likes best! Maybe we will build a snow dog together in the winter! The Carver County Fairgrounds are one of my favorite places to walk dogs if you live nearby.
