Because Your Dog Deserves the Best!

I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have had my own pups for the past 7 years. Dogs have always been a huge part of my world, and caring for them feels second nature to me. The safety and well-being of every dog in my care is always my top priority. With 3 years of experience as a professional dog trainer, I understand dog behavior on a deeper level. I’m confident handling dogs with big personalities, and I know how to keep walks structured, safe, and fun. Whether your pup is easygoing or a little quirky, I’ll make sure they’re cared for with patience and love. I also have experience administering medications and following special care routines, so you can trust that your pup’s needs will always be met. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your dog in someone else’s hands. That’s why I focus on communication, safety, and consistency. You’ll always get updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your dog is being cared for like family.

I am very appreciative of Kelsey watching my German Shepherd, on such short notice. She was communicative and provided lots of updates while I was out of state.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is my top priority in every service I provide. During walks, I prefer to use slip leads (provided by me) to ensure your dog stays secure and under control. Walks are tailored to each dog’s needs — some dogs enjoy a structured, trainer-style walk, while others love to sniff and explore — and typically last about an hour. Drop-in visits are completely flexible based on your dog’s needs and your preferences. Whether it’s a potty break, a quick walk, or just some love and cute photos, I make sure every visit leaves your dog happy and comfortable. I’m happy to provide updates and pictures so you can see how your pup is doing. For boarding, dogs stay in our apartment in a safe, crate-and-rotate system. My own dogs can be reactive, so I ensure every dog in my care has a secure, calm environment. Each dog gets supervised time outside the crate for walks, play, and snuggles, and overnight stays are in crates. Dogs must be comfortable in a crate to stay with me. I will provide updates with pictures and videos every 1-2 days. With experience at a professional board-and-train facility and 3 years as a dog trainer, I’m confident caring for dogs with all types of behaviors, including reactive, shy, or high-energy dogs. I follow strict safety protocols and never put your dog in harm’s way, while also making sure every pup receives plenty of love, attention, and care. Your dog will be treated like part of the family!

A typical day

Every dog is different, so I shape the day around your pup’s routine, preferences, and energy level. A typical day may include walks, potty breaks, playtime, snuggles, meals, and rest. The more detail you share about your dog’s schedule and favorite activities, the more I can make their day feel consistent, comfortable, and fun.

For any booking, I want to know about your dog’s behaviors and personality. This is a completely judgment-free space — I’ve worked hands-on with hundreds of dogs of all temperaments, so I understand that every pup is unique. Whether your dog is shy, excitable, reactive, or anything in between, sharing these details helps me keep them safe, comfortable, and happy. For boarding, please share your dog’s: • Feeding and potty schedule • Typical walk times and daily routine • Favorite activities (play, fetch, snuggles, etc.) • Usual activity level • Any medical needs or medications • Anything else that makes your dog feel at home For drop-in visits, let me know what type of care you’d like: a walk, potty break, playtime, snuggles — or all of the above! For dog walking, I’d love to know: • Any training tools you currently use • Routes your dog enjoys • Funny quirks or habits on walks • Any reactivity (to dogs, people, bikes, etc.) • Anything else that helps make walks safe and enjoyable The more I know, the better I can make sure your pup’s time with me feels safe, fun, and consistent with what they’re used to at home.
