Fun Loving Pack Leader

I am married with two adult children and am animal lover that currently has no dogs. Within the last few years, my two senior dogs (Daisy and Roscoe) passed away. They had been with us for 16yrs from when they were puppies to their golden years. Animals have always been a part of my life growing up from taking care of our dogs (dachshund), to our cats (Siamese) to now our current dogs Daisy (hound mix) and Roscoe (Beagle). In addition I have cared for multiple friends and clients animals from horses and goats, to cats and dogs. I have experience with special needs dogs, puppies and senior dogs. Having been through the grief process of letting my dogs go, I have a great understanding and compassion for owners and their older dogs and can assist owners with their needs in all stages of their dogs lives. I have a great love for animals and enjoy playing with them and meeting their needs. After moving back to North Carolina, I understand the need and importance in finding a reliable person to care for our dogs while we are out of town. I hope that I can meet your needs in caring for your pets. I feel that my job is to alleviate any concern that you would have, knowing that you have confidence in the person taking care of your dogs.

Kelly was great. We have 2 Germans and o e doesn’t always like people. But Kelly was very confident and gave Gator time to come to him. We will use Kelly again. Thank you

Kelly is a delightful man. Our Hank is a rescue with an unfortunate past, and Kelly’s gentle demeanor is exactly what we needed. We will definitely rely upon Kelly again!

Kelly took excellent care of mybtwobpets while I was out of town for a week. He was a great communicator and sent pictures of the cats when he visited. I'd definitely hire him again and recommend him to anyone that needs pet care.
