Cool Aunt and Foster Mom

Pet care experience

I work from home and am a working actor, animal lover, cat owner, and aspiring dog mom. I have experience doing long term (6+ month) fostering for large breed abuse cases for humane societies. I helped to bring them out of their shells, resolve separation anxiety and timidity issues, teach house training, leash training, basic skills and tricks, and over all prepare them to be loving and lovable members of their future forever homes. I also own a Maine Coon cat (big as a dog) whom I have trained to sit, stand, jump through my arms, and use the toilet. We're still working on "clean the apartment". I spent 2 months working for a dog walking company in Manhattan previously, so I'm comfortable adjusting to a number of different dogs and their individual needs. I'm also a major stage mom when it comes to animals, so you're bound to get mom/dad update photos while they're with me. I'm a calm and responsible animal lover who is interested in taking the best care of your pet. I've never met a dog I wouldn't win over or a horse that could throw me (my dad is a cattle rancher and all around cowboy from TX), and my experience ranges from horses, to llamas, to pygmy goats, to pigs, to Great Danes. If you've got it, I can walk it, feed it, love it, and probably teach it to sit. I look forward to meeting your furry family member!

Kelsey was awesome!! Very communicative, sent lots of pictures and videos so we knew our pup was getting along just fine. Link loved Kelsey’s visits and walks- would highly recommend her if you’re looking for a sitter.

Bunsen and I had a wonderful experience with Kelsey. She’s a consummate professional who takes excellent care of your beloved pet while you’re away. Would 100% recommend.

Kelsey was amazing! She got back to me super fast because my first sitter had canceled. Athena had such an amazing time with her and her car Woo. Kelsey sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the stay and I never had to worry about being away from her!

Kelsey was very responsive almost immediately! She allowed us to not have to worry about Khloe while we were gone for the day. Will definitely book with her again.

Information Kelsey A. would like to know about your pet

I like to know your dog's routines. I want to make sure they are as comfortable and happy as possible, so I want to try to stick to their normal schedule. That being said, I think a pet sitter should be a vacation not a punishment, so once they're settled, you may get photos of an all day outing or some other adventure. Let me know what your dog loves. What are his favorite scratches? What do you guys do on special occasions? I LOVE large dog breeds; honestly, nothing is too big or fluffy. I've worked with Pyrenees, Mastiffs, Shepherds, Berners, Great Danes... all dogs are lap dogs.

A typical day

I work from home, so your pet will have almost 24/7 love and attention. I have a small park right across the street from me and another park just a couple blocks down, and I love going on adventures and taking those long walks you might not always have time for.
