Safety, trust & environment

For housesitting requests, I must be able to bring my dog Gizmo with me. I am unable to commit to a repeat of consistent weekly drops ins or dog walks due to my work schedule with meetings. I’m happy to commit to a week or two but an ongoing weekly basis with my job makes it hard!

Information Kelsey D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, medications, allergies to food/treats/environmental factors that I need to be aware of. If there’s anything they like or don’t like so I can be sure they have the best time with me as possible. I want you as the owner to feel comfortable and at ease while you are away with from your pup. I don’t take the trust for granted and I guarantee you your dog will be loved on so much while you are away!

A typical day

Your pup will get to walk around the trails of DI, Shem Creek, MTP, or even the beach with my dogs and I! I can also take your dog to the new dog park under the bridge in MTP! We can go to Starbucks for pup cups too!

Pet care experience

Hi I'm Kelsey. I have been pet sitting for 16+years. I am very outgoing, active, caring, and responsible. I love playing with and taking dogs on walks/runs and to the dog park. They can even get a pup cup from Starbucks with me! I feel that you as the owner and your dog will get so much more out of in home care compared to sticking a dog in a boarding facility. I guarantee your pup will be loved on at the same capacity as I do my own dogs. My townhouse is two stories with a small fenced in backyard! I always recommend a meet and greet with the owner and pets first so I can get to know you and you can get to know me!

She was absolutely wonderful with our senior dog! She was so patient, kind, and loving, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of town. Communication was excellent throughout the entire stay, and we always felt updated and reassured. We would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring for their pets!

We had the absolute BEST experience with Kelsey and couldn’t recommend her more highly! From the very beginning, she went above and beyond—during our meet and greet, she asked thoughtful, detailed questions to truly understand how to care for our sweet bd pup, Sofie. It was immediately clear how much she genuinely cares about the dogs she looks after. Sofie can be a little nervous, especially in new situations, but she did AMAZING in her home under her care. We felt completely at ease while we were away thanks to how communicative she was. She sent frequent updates and photos, which we loved, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing Sofie was happy, comfortable, and in such great hands. Beyond being incredibly responsible and attentive, she is also just such a warm, kind, and lovely person. You can truly tell she puts some much love and care into the dogs she takes care of. We are so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be using her again in the future. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and all-around fantastic to bwatch your dog, can’t recommend her enough!

Kelsey was terrific. She is very sweet and responsible! We went on vacation for a week and did not worry one bit. Kelsey sent us photos everyday of our kitties and she was always very quick to respond to my texts. I would highly recommend using Kelsey! This was our first time using her and I felt confident after getting feedback from others who have hired her as their pet sitter. She was glad to do whatever we asked to make our cats happy! Five stars! Thanks Kelsey!
