Pet care experience

Experienced pet and house sitter

I am based in Carbondale, CO. I am currently pet/house sitting full time throughout the summer so I'm able to provide a high level of care for pets and homes throughout the valley! I've cared for my own dogs, roommates' dogs, friends' pets, Trusted Housesitter stays, and Rover sits over the past 10 years. I've cared for dogs from puppyhood to 13 years old. I've also cat-sat for friends, Trusted Housesitters, and Rover clients over the years. I'm happy to take them on walks, hikes, dog parks, and potty/play breaks throughout the day. The longest I've watched someone's pet was for 2 months, and I loved it! I'm also happy to take them camping if that's their jam. Feel free to reach out with any other questions! A note on transportation - I have a regular vehicle (Subaru Outback) in addition to my ambulance camper. I also have a bike I often enjoy cycling throughout the valley, so parking availability at your home should not be an issue.

Kelsey stayed with our small dog in our home for 9 days. Our little dog was well taken care of and had great attention and walks. I trusted Kelsey completely in our home. I would be glad to have her again.

Kelsey was great with my puppy, but she parked her converted ambulance van in our custom brick driveway and it was leaking oil badly. She had to know it was leaking because it was such a bad leak. I trusted she would take better care of our property.

Kelsey made sure our dog was comfortable & followed her routine. Has a great fenced in yard. Working from home was a plus so our dog wouldn't be by herself. Kelsey is very personable in making sure your dog is welcomed! Definitely would use again!

Schedule

I currently am full time pet sitting for the summer. I am very attentive and love morning, midday, fetch, and evening walks. I can take them to the dog park or on hikes, or if they're good with bikes, I can take them on even longer run/bike rides.

Safety, trust & environment

I am very respectful and clean when staying at a client's house. I treat it like my own (if not better). I love going for walks with your pup and keeping them on a leash. I also don't give in to the cute puppy eyes when I'm eating my food and keep them to their parents' approved food and treats.

A typical day

For dogs, I love to play fetch in the backyard or house if allowed throughout the day, and to take them for a walk around the park or neighborhood, or for a longer hike if they're up for it. Cats can interact with me as much or as little as they want. I am happy to play with whatever stringy or mousy toy they prefer (or sometimes just a tiny piece of trash they're obsessed with ?).

Let me know if your dog has any specific needs, fears/anxieties, or behaviors I should be aware of. I can accommodate a variety of requests, but would like to know their temperament and how to make them feel the most relaxed and happy in my care.
