Pet care experience

Reindeer are better than people 🎶

Okay, maybe not reindeer because realistically, who keeps deer as pet here in Florida... But dogs? Hands down🐾 Dogs will always be better than people. Growing up, I always had dogs and cats around and adored every moment with them. A dog person at heart, I also have a soft spot for feline friends. Over the years I have done my fair share of dog sitting on the side, but most of my animal care experience has come with responsibilities as a family pet owner. Although I don't have any of my own currently, I am eager to meet your fur babies and love them *almost* as much as you do. Puppies are better than people after all 😉

Kelly was amazing! She was able to accommodate a last minute request during the holidays when my current Rover sitter wasn’t available. She responded quickly and came over the very next day to do a meet and greet with Maci. It was immediately clear how much she genuinely loves animals, and Maci took to her right away. I’m so grateful for her help and flexibility—thank you, Kelly! 🐾

Kelly is the absolute best! She sent tons of pics of Odie out doing his favorite activities and I could tell he was a very happy pup! I will definitely hit her up again and know Odie would be excited to go back ❤️?

Kelly is a thoughtful and reliable pet-sitter. Leo may have been the first rabbit she'd watched, but she instinctively knew what to do. Noting that it was hot in the house, she texted about potentially opening a window or taking other measures to provide Leo some relief from the heat wave. Plus, she went above and beyond tidying up after my messy rabbit...and even me!

Kelly was wonderful with Couscous. She showed up on time and not only walked him but spent extra time to make sure he was comfortable before leaving. While walking Cousy a week later, he saw Kelly and ran right to her to give her kisses and she remembered his name. It was fun to see their connection.
