About Kelly E.

Safety, trust & environment

I will follow all directions and rules for taking care of your pet(s). Each one is special and I understand they all have their own needs. I am great at going with the flow with your pet and letting them lead the activity.

Information Kelly E. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know medical history, special diets, special needs and interests, and a typical day for your pet. I am happy to adapt to whatever your pet needs!

A typical day

I love taking dogs on walks and letting them show me all of their favorite spots. I am up for fetch, keep away, tug-of-war, or whatever your pet is in the mood for. I thinks it is really important to let the pets drive the play so they feel comfortable and happy.

Patience, love, & experience

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of animals since I was 7 years old. I grew up on an acreage and we always had cats and dogs. I can administer shots and medication and have experience bottle feeding kittens and bunnies. I love animals and understand that each one is different and deserves love. I am patient and careful with each pet, giving them the attention they need and feel most comfortable with. I have a soft spot for senior animals.

Kelly has had pets since she was 7 years old, from puppies and kitties to senior cats and dogs. She and I lived together in our 20s and she regularly cared for my dog when I went on trips. She is attentive to a pet's needs and will even do the silly things like singing to your dog to get them to eat, if needed. She loves animals and they usually love her, too, which is always a good reflection of someone's character.

Kelly watched our 9 year old border collie and our 10 month old kitten. She was very confident handling two different energy levels and two different type of animals at the same time. She followed all the instructions given to her and kept their routines consistent. Both animals were as happy as they could be when their people leave.
