Pet care experience

Can take your dog running! 🐶🐱💕🐾

Hi, my name is Kelly. I just moved here from New Mexico. I am a lover of all animals, big and small, fluffy and scaly and everything in-between. I worked part time for Animal Humane New Mexico. I helped in adoptions, animal care, behavior and training. While at Animal Humane I received my Fear Free Shelter Certificate. As well as animal care training in administering medications, vaccines and taking care of animals that are sick or have behavior issues. I volunteer walking dogs at the Albuquerque Animal Welfare Department. I foster for AWD kittens, puppies, rabbits, senior cats and dogs, and help work with animals with behavior issues! I love helping animals in need and it is my passion in life! I walk and care for dogs of all different breeds, sizes and behavior temperaments.I have taken behavior classes through my work in basic obedience training for dogs and puppies. I have my basic obedience certificate from Karen Pryor Clicker Academy. I can help keep your dog or puppy on track to become fully trained and well mannered! I also do pet sitting for cats. I absolutely love what I do and I am looking for more work in the field of animal care! I have had years of experience pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and coworkers. I live in a house with a huge back yard that is fenced in. Lots of space to run! I do have dogs and cats but can keep them separate from your animals. My dogs are dog freindly and get along well with other dogs and cats. If you want I can take your dog to a beautiful hiking trail we have a year access to all the state parks or even the Swamp Rabbit Trail! I love to go running and go daily so if you want I can take your dogs running! I look forward to meeting you and your best friend.

Safety, trust & environment

Pet care and safety is my highest priority. Being aware and fully present of any health concerns or changes in your pets behavior is something I watch for on a regular basis. I get to know your pets and they become like family to me! I will keep you informed of any behavior or medical changes that I might notice.

Kelly was wonderful with our puppy over the holiday. It was his first time being boarded and she was so kind to take care to make him comfortable. We had to change our plans due to the weather and she was very kind and flexible to make it work. He was well taken care of and we are very happy to recommend her!

Let me know if your dog has any special needs behavior or medical that I can account for. How is your dog with other dogs? How does your dog do on walks? Is there any training you would like me to work on with your dog if needed.
