Where Your Dog Feels Right at Home

My entire life I have been taking care of dogs. Since the moment I was born there has always been a dog present. What sets me apart is my personalized approach to dog sitting, with a focus on both physical and emotional well-being. I offer specialized care for puppies, including basic training and socialization, as well as extra attention for senior dogs, ensuring they feel comfortable and safe. With experience in handling dogs of all ages, I tailor my services to meet each dog’s unique needs—whether it’s extra playtime, administering medication, or simply providing a calm, loving presence. Your dog will not only be well cared for but also treated like family.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a dog-friendly home with three responsible roommates who all have experience caring for dogs. While I am the primary caregiver and will handle feeding, walks, and overall supervision, my roommates also love animals and help provide extra company and comfort. I have a spacious upstairs room where dogs can stay comfortably, and both our front and back doors are secure and locked most of the time to ensure safety at all times. I maintain a consistent routine with feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and enrichment to help your dog feel relaxed and at home. My goal is to provide a safe, calm environment where your dog gets plenty of attention and affection while you’re away.

Kelly has taken care of my border collie Lady for year & loves her as if she were her own. Kelly is reliable, loving & always available, especially when I am in a pinch. I would highly recommend Kelly to care for your dog & she has taken the utmost care of mine!

Kelly did an amazing job watching Sawyer! She is excellent with animals and will play with them for hours. He absolutely adores her and loves when she comes around. Highly recommend her services!

Schedule

I’m currently a full time student at the University of South Carolina, so my schedule does change every semester. Currently I have classes from Monday/Wednesday 11:15-2pm, Tuesday/Thursday 10:05-11:30 and Friday 1-2pm. They are back to back classes and I’m only gone for 2.5 hours max at a time. I have a car down here so it’s easy for me to get back and forth quickly. On weekends I have full availability.
