Animal Lover Able to Walk/Board

Pet care experience

I am a lifelong pet owner, dedicated to providing loving care for animals. My passion for animals led me to volunteer at a pitbull rescue, where I worked to help these dogs find forever homes. I just recently lost my dog of 19 years and I currently have a rescue puppy of my own, who is a beloved member of my family. As a new mom and a teacher, I understand the importance of patience, responsibility, and compassion. I am teacher home by 1:50 PM each day and love spending time caring for animals, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve.

Kelly was wonderful! Very attentive, caring, and kept me updated the whole time. I felt totally at ease. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!

Kelly was so kind to our dog! She has a friendly small dog of her own and he made our larger dog feel so welcome. Kelly was accommodating and in constant contact with us during our 3 day long trip. We can't wait to use her again.

Kelly is a fantastic dog sitter and owner. She takes care of the animals she is sitting like they are her own. She is attentive, loving, and makes sure to be in constant communication with their owners.

Information Kelly S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know in advance if your pet requires any medications, has specific sleeping preferences, or needs anything special to feel comfortable. I ask that you provide their food and any favorite treats or toys to help them feel at home. To ensure a safe and happy environment, it's important that your dog is comfortable around other dogs and children. My home is playful and full of love, so more social dogs tend to thrive here. If your dog prefers a quieter, more solitary setting, this might not be the best fit—and that’s totally okay!

A typical day

A day with me is full of fun, love, and plenty of playtime! I have a toddler and a young, playful dog who both adore spending time outside in our fenced backyard. We’ll enjoy lots of games with our collection of dog toys, run around together, and soak up the sunshine. We also take 3–4 long walks each day through our peaceful golf course community—perfect for getting fresh air and exercise. I’ll feed your pet according to your schedule and ensure they’re happy, healthy, and feeling right at home. Cuddles on the couch are a daily tradition, and I always treat pets like part of the family. Whether it’s giving medication, offering extra snuggles, or just being a calming presence, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and completely cared for while you're away.
