Love long walks and pup snuggles!

Pet care experience

Hello! Always an animal lover, I grew up caring for family pets including dogs, cats, bunnies, horses, and fish. My dog experience is primarily with puppies and adults; however, I'd be happy to meet with you to discuss any special care for your senior! I can also administer oral medications as needed. My services include boarding, home visits, and house sitting, and complimentary light grooming. Please note that if you are looking for boarding services, your pup must be able to handle stairs, or tolerate being lifted and carried, since I live on the 2nd-floor. I have a playful Shiba Inu named Pippa who loves hosting visitors and would join me for house sitting services. Pippa and I love going for long walks/hikes and playing fetch with active pups. Is your pup lacking in physical stamina, but still loves going out and about? No worries! For those of smaller stature, I'm happy to load them into a backpack or satchel and bring them along! For those larger pups who love to feel the breeze through their ears, we can take car rides to help fulfill their sense of adventure. Please shoot me a message with any questions you may have - I'd love to hear from you!

Kelsey did a phenomenal job of looking after my dog Gus while I was away for a weekend. She sent lots of pictures, videos, and updates that made me feel at ease about how he was doing. I had a flight delay that necessitated Gus needing to stay an extra night with Kelsey which she accommodated very well. This was my first time using rover and i could not be more pleased.

Kelsey did an awesome job and went above and beyond in fixing our pet door in the brutal cold after the dogs ripped the flap off ?

I have known Kelsey her entire life. She has always loved animals, and has had consistent contact with them throughout her life. She has ample experience caring for horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, you name it. Dogs, however, have always held a special place in her heart. She will do an excellent job caring for them in this position.

Information Kelsey F. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about your dog's favorite games, habits, allergies, triggers, and any behavioral issues (ex. in-home marking, reactivity, recreational barking) before sitting. In addition, please let me know what commands you use with your pup so we can communicate effectively! My goal is to make sure your dog is happy and healthy as long as they are under my care! For boarding clients, I do live in an apartment with many people and dogs coming and going throughout the day - if your dog barks at every little noise, please seek another sitter. If your dog is fearful of new people, I'd like to set up a time for an introduction while you are home.

A typical day

Based on your wishes, walks can be around the neighborhood, to the park, or we can even go hiking! We can play fetch, tug, or hide and seek. If you have any other fun games you like to play with your pup, fill me in and I can probably make that happen!
