Highlights
Pet care experience
Davis Dog Walker/Cat Sitter
Hi! I am a mature and responsible former elementary school teacher living in Woodland (just switched jobs and seeking supplemental income, so that's why I am back on this app after several years). I love caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. I have a yard perfect for letting your dog out to play, and am available evenings and weekends for drop in walks or visits. Please contact me for further details or to set up a date to meet. Thank you!

Ratings and reviews
In July 2015, as I was preparing for a two week trip to move my daughter half way across the country to school, I received a call from my regular dog sitter telling me she couldn’t come and take care of my dog while I was gone. Insert crisis mode. I had heard that Kelly of Davis, California, might be interested. I gave her a call and she came right over to meet my dog and check out the situation. My request was that she stay at my home and take care of our dog Baby for 2 weeks. Baby was a 110 pound St. Bernard/Rottweiler who had recently been diagnosed with bone cancer and needed a lot of care, love, and attention. She was on many medicines (mostly for pain) and had to be carefully monitored. Due to the cancer, she was starting to be a picky eater and different food choices had to be offered to make sure she ate along with her medications. At that time, she was also still getting daily walks which had to be done with care so she wouldn’t aggravate the tumor in her leg. Kelly immediately agreed to take on the job. (She also took care of everything around the house for us while we were gone.) Kelly responded to all my text messages, emails, and phone calls about how Baby was doing, and I learned quickly that I could actually stop worrying so much and enjoy my time with my daughter. Upon my return, I found Baby to be happy, well fed, and tolerating her pain medicines well. We are forever grateful to Kelly for taking care of Baby for us at this crucial time in our lives. I give her the highest recommendation!
I have known Kelly for several years, and highly recommend her! She is personable, responsible, respectful, competent, self-sufficient, and all around a pleasure to work with. Kelly is proactive and takes initiative to clean up after herself and leave the house better than the way she found it. She is also very fun-loving and dependable, allowing me to approach her about various housekeeping needs of mine. I definitely recommend Kelly both as a great caregiver for dogs, and housesitter!
Kelly is amazing young women who has a gentle kind firm way about her when she has taken care of my grand children and animals. I have know her since she was little. I trust her and know I do not need to worry when she is taking care of my loved ones and critters. You will feel the same as I do about Kelly.
I have known Kelly for over 15 years. She has always been an animal lover. She has a special way with, and seems to understand them. She is organized, neat, dependable, trustworthy, punctual and kind. She has cat-sat for me in the past and I would not hesitate to have her stay with my animals again. I trust her with my animals, and in my home, without question.
I have know Kelly most of her life and I will say she is one the the most responsible caring people that I have known. She has a huge heart and loves animals and also children. Kelly has cared for my animals and has done a fantastic job. They are always happy to see Kelly come through the door and want to hang out with her and play fetch and get a belly rub. She is a natural with them and they love her. I have trust Kelly and she has never let me down.
