Highlights
Pet care experience
Dependable, caring, calm pet sitter
I have cared for a variety of animals while pet sitting in client homes and farms; my experience includes caring for up to 4 dogs at a time, 3 cats, turtles, and farm animals. I also care for kittens and young pups. I will treat your animals with love and care to ensure comfort and safety while their owners are away.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Kelly was fantastic to work with. I would most definitely work with her, and reccomend her in the future,
I cannot recommend Kelly highly enough as a dog walker and sitter on Rover. As you can see from the photo of my three pups, they are quite the handful — and while they are incredibly loving, they are also very needy, high-energy, and struggle with significant anxiety. All three of my dogs have separation anxiety anytime we are gone. Because of this, I have never been able to leave them alone with anyone other than Kelly. That alone speaks volumes about the level of trust we have in her. She does overnight stays for us and provides the kind of care that truly matches their very special and high needs. Kelly is able to walk all three of them together — which is no small task, as they pull her like a sled! Yet she handles them confidently and safely every time. She is endlessly patient, especially with my oldest dog, who howls all night on the first night we are away. Instead of becoming frustrated, Kelly approaches him with compassion and understanding. She is amazing, dependable, and genuinely cares about my dogs as if they were her own. When Kelly is with them, I can finally relax knowing they are safe, loved, and well cared for. If you are looking for someone trustworthy, patient, and capable of handling even the most anxious and high-maintenance dogs, Kelly is the absolute best choice.

Schedule
I am available early mornings for feeding/walking/check-ins, most afternoons & evenings for care, as well as the weekends. I work during the week days until about 3:30/4. I work the public school calendar and have built in breaks and time off, including summers.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I work to ensure your animals feel as comfortable as possible whether within their own homes or staying in mine. I understand the need to be calm and allow animals to gain comfortably around a new care taker. I will give them the space they need to "come around"; I take meal times, going out for potty & walks, as well as medication delivery and special needs seriously. I want pet owners to feel confident their fur babies are being taken care of with fidelity.
Pets
A typical day
I enjoy walking dogs where they are comfortable, whether it's in town, contained in your yard, on a nearby trail or park. I will ensure your pet(s) get the movement they want and need! I can provide play time, fetch, yard time, trips out to a park or in the community (when requested), hikes, trail walks, etc. depending on the owner's comfort and your pets needs for activity.
