Kelly can care for

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

Availability

Schedule: I currently pet sit full-time, on Rover and privately. I also enjoy beach days and being a little bit of a tourist myself. I had scoliosis surgery over 25 years ago and my spine feels much better IN MOTION, which is why pet sitting has been a lifesaver to support myself. I appreciate you more than words!

Safety, trust & environment

My cats are my world and your pets are no less important. I will follow your care plan word for word. My FULL attention and focus are on your pet’s safety and comfort at ALL times. I am 40 years old and was raised in a strict household by amazing parents. I will be on time and always communicative, do not hesitate to reach out at any time. I do not cancel appointments and will always will do my best to help in a last-minute need situation. I will not be distracted or on my cell phone during a sitting (besides taking pictures of your pets) as I am a bit overprotective for their safety and definitely hyper-attentive of their mood and well-being. I will treat your home and your pets as if they are my own, you have my word. <3

Information Kelly M. would like to know about your pet

Allergies, medical conditions, anything specific triggers of fear/anxiety/discomfort/aggression, their typical daily routine (affection, training, food/treats/water, medicine, grooming, walking locations and duration, sleep patterns, favorite places or activities, specific do’s and don’ts), also the location of food, treats, toys, leashes, litter, medicine etc.. You know best what it takes to make your pet comfortable while you’re away.

A typical day

Activities! Play toss, tug-of-war, go to the beach, take a stroll in the neighborhood, or enjoy a cuddle. Cats let US know what they are in the mood for (haha)… play time with toys, toss a few treats, chase a laser, watch birds together, or just be a warm lap. ***I am here to take care of your pet PER YOUR INSTRUCTIONS. They should feel as though you (almost) haven’t left at all.***

Pet care experience

☀️🙋🏻‍♀️ Hi, I’m Kelly, I’m 40 and I live on Anastasia Island in St. Augustine Beach ! I moved to Saint Augustine Beach in summer 2025 from Fort Lauderdale to live closer to my parents who are in Ponte Vedra ❤️ I grew up in Maine & the Philadelphia area primarily. (Also lived in MO, MA, MD, and have a lot of family in MI.. GO BLUE! GO LIONS!) I began pet sitting and dog walking in the 90’s for families in my neighborhoods and continued throughout my schooling and college years to today. Animals are innocent and generous with love, who wouldn’t want to fill their days with more of that kind of energy? In 2008, I graduated college with my Bachelor’s Degree in Biology. For 11 years in Philly I was an Associate Broker, managing and growing a $20,000,000+ portion of my President’s book of high-risk commercial liability insurance. July 2020, I moved to Fort Lauderdale. One of my most fulfilling jobs was assisting a family with two young boys, one of which was autistic. We had ridiculous amounts of fun together and I am still close with them today. I’ve also enjoyed being a head lifeguard, children’s private swim instructor, American Eagle assistant manager, Uber driver, and a waitress at Aruba Beach Cafe🌅 & Casablanca in FLL. I am dependable to a T, intuitive, protective, energetic, nurturing, and maternal. Choosing me means more than just finding a dependable and phenomenal sitter, you are helping me support myself and that means so very much! 🩷 I look forward to meeting you and your family! 🐕‍🦺🐈🐠🐰🦜🐾

Kelly was absolutely awesome!! I couldn’t ask for a better experience. She’s a kind and gentle animal lover, and took excellent care of my two cats while we were away for two weeks. The daily photos were very reassuring, and I will not hesitate to book Kelly again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
