Experienced Vet Tech & animal lover

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Kelly and I've been a CVT for 13 years. Before having my daughter I used to do a LOT of in home pet sitting. I have cared for dogs, cats (barn and feral too), horses and fish. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats at home. Two of my animals were adopted from a local rescue that I volunteer with as well. I am available for drop ins while you are out of town for cats, dog and possibly other critters (which can be discussed) or dog walks. During these times if any medications (oral or injectable) need to be given, I'd be glad to do so. If your pet has any other special needs, let me know and I'd be happy to help! Please note: there may be an extra fee for additional services for special needs pets. This will be on a case by case basis. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

We have known Kelly for almost 20 yrs. She has always been friendly, compassionate and very loving with our animals. We have Great Danes and cats. She has watched our animals a couple of times. That included spending the night with them also. With Kelly being a vet tech and an animal lover we knew our fur babies were in good hands at all times. We would not hesitate to have Kelly watch our babies again.

I have used Kelly as a pet sitter on several occasions. She was wonderful with my pets (3 dogs and 4 cats at the time). She would work with me as far as her staying at my home if she needed to, giving medications, etc. She is a responsible individual, excellent with animals and I highly recommend her.

Kelly is AMAZING!!! She has been an asset to our fur family for over 10 years! She genuinely loves animals which is clear by not only her profession but with how she interacts with other people's animals as well. I also genuinely believe that people who do rescue have a bigger heart for animals and Kelly not only has all rescued pets but she volunteers and advocates for local organizations. She is a true lover of all beings, plus she's super duper sweet! When she stays with our pets we know they are in safe, qualified hands- always a perk to have a vet tech watching your fur kids in case they need anything while you're gone ;) While sitting for us, Kelly has gone far above and way beyond... There was a time when one of our babies was sick and she brought her to work with her everyday to keep a close eye on her. I also had a time where my 3 dogs got out under my watch and we couldn't find them. Kelly volunteered nearly 5 hours of her own time helping us search for them- having already called it in to our city and the neighboring one's PD, animal shelter and several vet offices before she even got to our house and walking through woods full of thorns and stickers looking for them. After we'd located 2 and one was still missing, we found him dodging traffic on a busy street and Kelly parked her car sideways in the middle of the road to avert cars from hitting him! I will forever be eternally grateful for her help on this day- it could have been my worst day ever. I've also text her asking advice outside of her sitting and she was happy to help advise me! While we're out of town, Kelly is constantly in touch with us; keeping us updated and sending photos of our babies being spoiled. If you're like me, you have a hard time going on vacation because you worry about your pets. You don't have to worry with her, they're in great hands. I GUARANTEE you will love Kelly just as much we do and so will your pets!

Information Kelly N. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed preferences. However, I would like to know how your dog reacts or interacts with other dogs if we came into contact with any. For example, my dog is ok with some dogs but not all dogs. Same with kids or men. Also, if he/ she has a routine they are used to so I can continue it in your absence.
