Experienced, Trustworthy, Caring

Pet care experience

I have many years of experience providing cat drop-in visits, dog walking and sitting services. I am passionate about taking care of cats and pups and I am trustworthy and reliable. I am super flexible and will work with YOUR schedule. I have experience with all types of cats and dogs - big, small, friendly/not friendly. I've worked with them all! I have a dog of my own - super friendly and loves every dog he meets. Is super gentle with small dogs. I volunteer for a local cat and dog adoption agency as an adoption coordinator and serve occasionally as a foster-mom to rescue pups. I am a lawyer by day, animal lover by day and night! Rest assured that I will send you updates and pictures of your cat or pup having fun. Please contact me and I will get back to you within minutes.

We love working with Kelly! She is flexible, prompt, enthusiastic, kind, and very attentive to our pup and our kitty. Would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a walker or dog sitter.

Kelly watched my Rhodesian mix for a week and he had a blast! My dog is very high energy and Kelly made sure he had plenty of outlets for exercise including trips to the dog park, long walks, and fetch. Kelly provided daily updates/pictures and was professional throughout. Her dog got is very well trained and got along great with mine. It was very reassuring to know that my dog was in such good hands and was having a great time while I was away. Highly recommend Kelly for your pet sitting needs!

Can't say enough about Kelly R. She was so accommodating with Harley. Harley is very old and requires frequent potty breaks. Kelly brought her dog by to make sure they would get along before agreeing to board Harley, which was an exceptionally generous offer. Harley was well taken care of and I will use Kelly any time I can get her!

Kelly was an ideal host and Lou really enjoyed having Sawyer as a buddy (he actually seemed bummed to leave at the end of his stay!). Kelly sent thorough updates regularly and went out of her way to make sure Lou got tons of exercise and was very patient with his high energy ways. Thanks again Kelly!

Information Kelly R. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds. I would like to know a specific meal plan, whether the dog is social or not (I'm fine with either!) and what types of toys, chews etc. the dog loves. I would also like to know the dog's exercise plan.

A typical day

My dog, Sawyer, is VERY active. He goes on three long walks a day (in addition to potty breaks when necessary). He plays fetch in a large dog park about two blocks from my apartment. When staying at my apartment, your dog will join in on all of the fun - trips to the dog park, fetch, practicing commands/learning commands - Sawyer knows sit, down, stay, high-five, roll over. When the weather is warm, Sawyer and I also go for 2 mile runs - I'd be happy to run with your pup if he/she is up for it and with your permission!
