Local, trustworthy Marin woman

Pet care experience

Growing up in San Rafael with both a dog and a cat made me an animal lover all around. I’m a proud mom to a 5yr old rescue pup with a partner with a spunky older cat, who thankfully get along well (don’t worry, neither will be joining me whilst housesitting!). I have house-sat and pet-sat for over 10years for family, close friends and friends of friends via referrals. I treat every home with respect and will leave it just as you found it, which will be perfect for you return home! I’ve never met a pet that hasn’t wanted more pets upon meeting me, not to toot my own horn or anything. I will treat your pet as if they were my own, with lots of love (or as much as they want), plenty of walks, cuddles, playtime and treats when deserved! I respect the house and pet rules and will be sure to adhere to them while in your space. I’m a responsible, caring and conscience woman who just wants to help other local Marin folks who need someone to love their pet and respect their home while they’re away. I am CPR certified, which included pet CPR training as well.

Kelly was a dream! Absolutely impeccable in every way... communication, keeping me informed, taking akela for a walk and sending pictures. Even cleaned the house which was not asked. Thank you!

I have know Kelly for close to 30 years. She is my best friend and serves as my cat's "God Mother." My cat is almost 18 years old and Kelly has been through every stage of her life. We have all lived together and I trust Kelly with my cat child 100%. She treats all her friends' pets like they are her own. My cat loves her!! Kelly is responsible, quick in response time, organized, caring, trusting, and a kind hearted human. Your animal(s) will be in amazing hands while under her care.

Kelly has been a huge help in watching my 30lb gremlin and I've seen firsthand the dedication, love and care she provides for not only her dog but every dog within sight! Know your dog is in loving hands when you leave them with Kelly!!

Safety, trust & environment

I will be sure to treat your pet with the utmost respect and love, and am diligent in following pet (and house) rules. I have never let a dog off leash in any environment that doesn’t constitute it i.e. your fenced in back yard or a dog park, if approved to take them to one. Minimum 3 walks a day, but will follow your instruction as requested. Indoor cats will always stay inside and outdoor cat’s rules will be followed, per your direction as well. I am CPR certified, which includes pet CPR, and am familiar with local vets since I have taken my pup to AMC in San Rafael for years, if anything were to arise while I’m staying with your pet(s).

I am currently a student pilot out of the Petaluma airport, so I’m not working a normal 9-5 and will only be away from the home for a few hours while in flight training, up to 4-5 days a week, generally weekdays only. When I’m home, I’m hitting the books hard, studying for 2-3hrs at a time, both mornings and evenings, with adequate and necessary breaks to walk my dog, get some fresh air, and cook simple meals for myself. I have a lot of time to commit to being with your pet at your home, they’ll never be alone too long!
