Pet care experience

Animal enthusiast and Caregiver <3

As the daughter of a veterinarian, former zookeeper, and current animal care lead at an accredited shelter, I have over 20 years experience caring for animals of all sizes and types! At the age of 15 I raised an entire litter of kittens by myself, all of which lived long, happy lives! I received my degree in Biology so that I could continue a career in animal care and husbandry. I have pet sat for several friends and family members over the course of my life. I currently love my job working at an animal shelter <3

Kelsey is always reliable, communicates with us so well, and makes our babies very happy. They love her which is the best we can ask for!

Kelsey was great as usual with watching our house and 2 Shiba Inu. This time she even had to deal with a neighbor's unleashed dog while out on a walk (!!) and did so with such professionalism and care. In general, her attentiveness to the dogs and their behavior comes through and I so appreciate the daily updates. Thank you Kelsey!

Kelsey is fantastic! Our pets absolutely adore her, and we always try to book her first whenever we go out of town. She’s reliable, caring, and keeps everything spotless. It’s such a relief to know that our home and furry family are in the best hands!

Kelsey is great with our dog and he always seems calm when we come home. She takes him out often, and she stays in close contact to let us know if his eating or behaviors have changed. We definitely recommend Kelsey!

Schedule

I do freelance jobs through Rover and other agencies so I can create my own schedule. Therefore I’m pretty flexible. I plan my week out around my Rover bookings.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not currently have any pets, so I am able to board cats or small-med dogs, even if they don’t get along with other animals. If I am pet-sitting at your house, I typically stay there the whole time. I may leave to run errands for a bit depending on how comfortable your animal is being left alone. But I am open and flexible to fit your needs!

A typical day

I usually spend the first few minutes of the visit getting comfortable with your pet and gaging their energy level and confidence. I like taking long walks through forested areas (if nearby) or areas with a lot of plants. I let them do most of the leading and set the pace. Back home I will try to engage in a little play if they have toys laying around, or just sit on the couch and cuddle.
