Safety, trust & environment

I will treat your dog with as much care and love as I do my own girl, Chloe. It is a scary and daunting process to find and trust a pet sitter which I understand first-hand. I can assure you I am obsessed with dogs and would be honored to spend time with your fur babies.

Information Kelsey G. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog friendly with other dogs? Any mannerisms/behaviors I should know about beforehand? Are there any obedience commands you would like me to reinforce with your dog?

A typical day

My dog Chloe and I walk to 1 of 3 local Encinitas dog parks every single day. The only time we skip a day is if we upgrade to a Del Mar Dog Beach adventure or local hike/nature trail instead. I am happy to take your dog on a simple walk through the neighborhood, or we can go for a run, adventure, or field trip to the dog park for further stimulation.

Active Outdoor Enthusiast

Pet care experience

I've owned multiple breeds of dogs from overly energetic Jack Russels, to water-loving Huskies, to lap cuddling Maltese. I am excellent with dogs and would love to spend time with your fur baby. My specialty is tiring out active medium to large breed dogs, however I'm happy to tone it down to a stroll for your elderly or pocket-sized pup. Positive affirmations and personalized attention are a given as well! I am also a big gardener and am able to water and maintain your garden/indoor plants while you’re away as well. I have experience with caring for disabled dogs and for managing aggressive behaviors in dogs as well.

Kelsey was amazing with our two dogs, Sunny and Leo. We have two high energy working breeds and Kelsey entertained them all weekend with park dates and lots of walks and play. Super grateful and lucky to have found her.

Kelsey was fantastic. Our dog had a fabulous time while under her care. She integrated him into her regular routine and he was kept busy and safe while we were away. Upon return, our house was exactly as we left it. We will absolutely use Kelsey again when needing a pet sitter.

Kelsey did a great job sitting for us on short notice. Super active with the pups and very communicative! Would definitely use her again for our sitting needs!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
