Pet care experience

I've had dogs my entire life and truly love being around them. I've personally owned a wide range of breeds—from large dogs like German Shepherds, Labs, and Irish Setters to smaller companions like Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Dachshunds, and Basset Hounds. Each one has had their own personality, and I’ve loved caring for them all! I also grew up on a farm, so I'm no stranger to animals with unique needs or personalities. Whether it's administering medications, following special diets, or just giving extra patience and attention, I’m comfortable and confident caring for pets who need a little extra love.

Kelly has babysat Buster, our Staffordshire Terrior, several times. Buster absolutely loves to go there. It’s like a vacation for him while we are on vacation. One time she actually gave him a bath. There have never been any incidents and we are completely satisfied with her service. I highly recommend her services to anyone.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have two of my own friendly dogs who can be great companions for your pup, or I’m equally happy to keep everyone separated if that’s what’s best for your dog’s needs and personality. My dogs spend most of their time outdoors by choice, so there’s plenty of space for everyone. I have a large, covered back patio with fans for shade and comfort, and a pool area for cooling off on hot days (with supervision, of course). The backyard is a fully fenced, secure 3-acre open space—perfect for running, sniffing, and playtime. To ensure safety and reduce stress, I always do feeding times separately for each dog. Whether your dog stays with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I maintain a calm, structured environment with lots of attention and care.

Information Kelly S. would like to know about your pet

To make sure your pet has the best and safest experience, I always like to learn a few key things before their stay: Any behavioral quirks (e.g. leash reactivity, separation anxiety, food guarding, etc.) Feeding instructions and schedule Medical needs or medications How they get along with other dogs Crate preferences or sleeping arrangements Favorite toys, routines, or things that comfort them Any fears or triggers (like thunderstorms, loud noises, etc.) The more I know, the better I can tailor their care to keep them happy, comfortable, and safe. I’m happy to accommodate special routines or needs—just let me know!

A typical day

Whether your dog loves to play, relax, or explore, I’ve got something fun for them! We’ll enjoy plenty of outdoor time in my fully fenced 3-acre backyard—perfect for fetch, sniffing adventures, or just running around freely and safely. On hot days, we can hang out under the large, covered patio with fans for cool-down time, and I always supervise any water play near the pool. I tailor activities based on your dog’s energy level and preferences—whether that’s playing tug-of-war, going on sniff walks, learning new tricks, or just soaking up the sun together. I also provide plenty of cuddle time, belly rubs, and enrichment toys to keep their minds and bodies engaged. Your pup will never be bored or lonely here—they’ll be treated like family and have lots of love, attention, and play throughout the day!

Whether it’s frequent potty breaks, cuddle time, play sessions, or just having someone around to keep them company, your dog will get the attention and care they deserve. You can relax knowing they’ll never be left alone for long!
