Experienced, gentle, responsible!

Pet care experience

I have worked for several years in veterinary hospitals and have cared for countless of dogs and cats in boarding facilities and my client's homes. I am experience and familiar with animal behavior and know I have to earn you and your dog's trust. I have worked with aggressive and fearful pets, dogs prone to seizures and other medical ailments, highly energetic adult dogs, yet to be trained pups, geriatric dogs - even worried family members who don't want to leave their babies behind. I have three dogs in my life. There is Hayley, an Australian Shepherd, Zeba, a GSD, and Zoey, the sweetest little pug in the world and although they are my kids, I'm not their primary caretaker. In addition to years of experience with dogs, I am also experience with cats, chickens, rabbits, rats, and a miniature horse. I provide an individualized approach to animal care and will tailor my care to your wishes and your dog's needs and temperment. I will be at my client's house throughout the entire stay and, since I work, I am more than willing to stop by your home during my lunch break for a potty break and/or mealtime. I'll also be available by phone, text, or email so we can check in with each other while you're away. If you have any questions at all, don't hesitate to get in touch. I believe in honesty and transparency in my work and expect the same from you in return. Thank you for your consideration.

Kelsey put us at ease for our first pet & house sitter beyond immediate family. Her confidence, competence, and overall kindness & caring was so reassuring. We received daily updates and photos while out of town and she dropped our pup at daycare the day we came back. Walking in, the house was spotless and she’d made an extra trip back on the final day to wash all bed linens and towels and water our plants! If you are looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter who goes above and beyond, you can count on Kelsey.

I was very skeptical & picky when looking for a pet sitter.... I needed someone who could care for my 6 Saint Bernards ,2 small dogs, possibly pups at times & care for them the way I do. I had a horrible accident occur with my last pet sitter & just couldn't face a repeat of neglect/loss. Having run a successful pet sitting service for 20 years in NJ....I know it takes a big heart for animals to do it right. I read some of Kelsey's testimonies & then spoke with her, I knew I wanted to have her meet my gang. She came for a meet/greet with the dogs & I loved her from then on. I knew she was a caring, competent woman, who loved what she did & would treat my dogs like they were her own. I left for NJ for 4 days & have never felt so assured that my pups would be fine. Kelsey would text me nightly when she arrived & then when she left in the morning, so I always knew all was well. She not only changed they're bedding & washed they're bowls daily, plus all my pages of care, but did they're laundry, so I didn't have to come home to bunch. The house was clean, the dogs happy & I have NEVER been more satisfied with someone caring for my animals in 39 years as I am with Kelsey! I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to assure their pets love & top notch care while away! Thanks again Kelsey.

We highly recommend Kelsey C. She has always done an incredible job caring for our Willie and Keebler. Willie was a senior dog and needed a lot of care at the end. Whatever needed to be done, Kelsey took care of it very professionally. Medications were administered, messes were cleaned up and all problems where solved. By the end of her stay it was difficult to tell that she had even been there. The house was left clean and Willie and Keebler were happy and content. Kelsey does an excellent job.

While we were away on sabbatical for 3 months Kelsey stayed in our home with our 5 year old miniature poodle. Kelsey is extremely conscientious. She gave our dog love and exercise and respected his routine, which was so important because of the amount of time away. Our dog was happy and healthy upon our return. We trusted Kelsey with our home and our dog for 3 months and would hire her again...that says it all.
