Dogs Love My Warm & Caring Nature

Pet care experience

I've cared for dogs my entire life. I've cared for mixed breeds, Labs, Bichon Frise, Shih Tzus, Maltese, and Dachsunds, to name a few. I love dogs so much that I'm currently Mom to my furbaby Maximus Moon, who is a 5-pound Maltese with a lot of energy! When I care for your pet, I treat it like he or she is my very own – with a lot of love, attention and patience. Dogs tend to gravitate toward me because of my warm spirit, enthusiastic and cheerful disposition, caring nature and maternal instincts. I am highly attentive at all times, making sure that the one I'm watching is getting everything he or she needs. Being a parent is a tough job and I'm here to help make it a little easier and stress-free! About our home: I currently live in a 2-bedroom apartment in Ellicott City just a quick 5-minute drive from Centennial Park.

Trevor had a great time staying with Kelly, Paul and their puppy Maximus! He was well taken care of and Kelly sent lots of pictures so we could see how Trevor was doing. We would definitely have Trevor stay with Kelly again in the future.

Kelly is an extremely kind-hearted person, and that attitude reflects on all of the people, and animals, around her! She has always treated my pets with the exact same affection and care as her own dog. In fact, she drove an hour out of her way to come visit my kitten. One thing that stands out to me most about Kelly is that she is always very particular about keeping her dog, and the area in which he lives, clean and fresh. Each time I have been with her and her dog, she has immediately jumped on cleaning up any accidents, cleaning her dog's food and water bowls, feeding him at the appropriate times, or just taking extra measures to make sure her dog is happy and clean. She has a compassion for animals that I would compare to a mother to her child. She also cares deeply about training her dog around guests. Kelly is very mindful of her dog's behavior around others (both humans and animals). :) I've only ever seen her use positive reinforcement with her dog. I would absolutely recommend Kelly as a dog-sitter.

Kelly is awesome!! She was very accommodating with my schedule. She was also super kind and sweet with my dog and knew what she was doing. Highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.

Kelly is not only a loving person, but she is also a very good dog sitter. She is very responsible and one of the few people that I would trust with my dog because of her experience and personality. She is caring, loving, but also maintains her ground when training the dogs so they dont grow a bad habit. There are also a lot of playtime and attention given to the dogs, which I think is very important for them to develop human interaction. Overall, Kelly is your gal to watch your best pal :)

Information Kelly M. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to hear about your dog — what he or she likes, including favorite toys, treats, and activities. I prefer smaller dogs since I live in an apartment, but I can also care for medium-sized dogs too.

A typical day

I live in a very safe community near Centennial Park, so count on your dog catching some sun, playing fetch and walking a lot; there are plenty of closed-off sidewalks and grassy areas right outside my door. Overnight stays involve plenty of playtime so he or she gets all the energy out for a good night's sleep.
