Pet care experience

Your go-to pet sitter!

How did we deserve such amazing animals? Dogs and I just get each other! I love being active, getting outside for walks, and giving every pup I meet the love and attention they deserve. I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and it’s truly my dream job. Clients trust me for my reliability, great communication, and the extra love (and photo updates!) I give while they’re away. For house sitting, I like to mention that my 9-year-old dog, Kava, usually joins me — as long as it’s okay with your pets and you! She’s incredibly calm, gentle, and great with other animals. She mostly naps and keeps me company while I care for yours. You can relax knowing your pets are in good hands with me — and Kava and I can’t wait to meet new friends! :)

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we met Kelly it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She kept us updated with photos and messages throughout our trip, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog, Luca, was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when we returned. Kelly went above and beyond in giving 2 medications to Luca and worrying about a cone for a paw infection! We would absolutely use Kelly again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!

Kelly took care of our my 13yr terrier Owen over 4 days. This was my first time arranging housesitting through Rover, and I would highly recommend Kelly. She is a very caring person who I found easy to trust to care for my Owen and our home. We had an unexpected event that Owen's older sibling(Bevin) passed away a day before Kelly was to arrive. At the age of 14.5 years, Bevin was slowing down and had been losing weight over the past months. Kelly couldn't have been more supportive to both myself and Owen in our grief of her passing. Owen especially enjoyed the company on her dog Kava, who is very sweet and friendly. It was a good that he found a buddy with Kava. While I was away, Kelly kept me well updated with photos and messages. Upon her departure she also left the house spotless. I am forever thankful to both Kelly and Kava for helping ease the transition after our loss. I highly recommend her, especially if you have older dogs like my own. Kelly is top my list for future pet sitting whenever her schedule fits ours!

Kelly is wonderful! She was so kind, warm, and enthusiastic about caring for our dog, and Ozzy LOVED her! We will not hesitate to book her again!

Kelly and family welcomed Ace as one of their own. Great pictures of all of them in the park, on a walk, lounging in the house…. I’m sure he’ll be thrilled for a return visit

Kelly is amazing! Props to her dog, Kava, too! Kelly was really attentive to our wild child and sent us lots of wonderful pictures. There were walks and adventures galore. We will definitely hire her again!

Kelly was absolutely amazing! She watched our crazy dog for the weekend and treated him and our home like her own. Her dog, Kava is an absolute sweetheart and was fast friends with Remus. Don’t hesitate to book her!

Pets

A typical day

When your dog stays with me, I will be outside as much as possible to keep your dog exercised and happy. I love long walks throughout the neighborhood or throwing the ball around in the yard. I have several dog toys to keep your dog entertained at home as well. I just love being around them and my dog also loves having a friend around if you choose to have your dog stay with me. :)

Communication is key. Anything I should know to create a wonderful experience for your pet is what I will appreciate the most. I have worked with many different dogs. Some that are territorial at first, and some that warm up quickly. I can adjust to either type of dog and love learning about the different breeds!
