Highlights
Pet care experience
Allow me to love your fur babies!🐾
I have grown up with dogs of all sizes since I was young. My family has had 2 St Bernard’s, 1 Black Lab and a teacup Yorkie! I currently have two medium/large sized Pitty mixes. I have helped care for both family and friends pups in the past. I even had a nanny job where I cared for the families 1 year old daughter and their black GSD and chocolate lab 3 days a week for a year. I also worked at a doggie daycare (Dogtopia) for a year and a half when I first moved to NC. This allowed me to gain TONS of experience with all sizes and breeds. I’ve learned how to handle all behaviors and temperaments and I know what signs to look for when a dog may be nervous, scared or ill. Im comfortable giving oral medications. I’m experienced with dog allergies and special needs (deaf, tri-pod, diabetic, etc.) I have such a soft spot for dogs and I would love to get to know yours and treat them like they are my own. 💗 I live in Fuquay-Varina with my fiancé. We are in a quiet neighborhood where we can go on longer walks on the streets. We also have a decent sized yard with a pond behind us. We can go for walks around the pond and watch the ducks from our yard!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Kelsey is an excellent sitter. She took great care of my husky and chow chow for a week. They were loved, exercised daily, and got to socialize with Kelsey’s dogs who were very well behaved. She sent many adorable photos and updates while we were traveling which gave me peace of mind. I can tell she has a ton of experience with dogs based on the communication we had throughout their stay. I will absolutely book with Kelsey again! 🐾


Kelsey took good care of our fur babies. She gave them lots of snuggles!


Kelsey was so wonderful with my dogs! Dexter and Ollie are nervous around new people and I am always worried leaving them with someone new, but she understood their personalities so well and they were very well taken care of. She sent me daily updates and pictures of how they were doing. I would blindly trust Kelsey with my dogs anytime. I will definitely be reaching out to her again if my dogs ever need a sitter again. 🐶🥰🫶🏼


Kelsey did a fantastic job with my two dogs! She was always very responsive and sent pictures several times during our trip. Would definitely book with her again!


Kelsey is really good and very patient. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a good dog sitting.

Thank you Kelsey!! The pups looked so happy. Looking forward to our next visit😊🐶

Schedule
I currently work 8a-5p with an hour lunch break. My hours and lunch break are typically very flexible and I also have the flexibility to work from home as needed. I work right in Fuquay, 5 minutes from our house, and come home on my lunch break daily. We also have a pet camera in our house to monitor our dogs and any other pup we are watching when we are not home. However, my dogs will never be left unsupervised with yours just for safety! I am also free evenings and weekends as well for drop-ins, walks, and boarding in my home!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a spacious house that would be very homey and welcoming for your pup. I do have two 36” crates with a crate mat and cover, as well as a 48” XXL crate. I also have a spare set of food and water bowls, and tons of dog toys and treats! I have two VERY socialized Mixed Breed rescue pups that love having friends to play with. They have never met a dog they did not get along with. Our older dog is used to open play daycare with up to 35 other dogs. Both Knox and Nova can be very face forward and will play hard if your pup allows them to! However, they’re great at adjusting to other dogs play styles and energy levels. Sometimes it just takes a slower introduction. Nova does have puppy energy and is still learning, but she loves everyone and everything! Your dog will be very well loved and exercised while staying in our home. 💗 The treats here are also plentiful 😉

A typical day
I love taking pups on neighborhood walks. We have lots of toys to play with both inside and out. I have puzzle boards to hide treats in and lots of bones and training treats. Our spacious yard here is great for outdoor playtime. We also love to walk around our neighborhood or at the local parks for some extra exercise! I enjoy training dogs and would love to teach yours a new trick! After rescuing Knox, I have thought him Sit, Shake (right or left), double shake, Down, Stay, in your bed, in your house (crate), nice nice (gentle), jump, roll over, bang bang, speak, spin, middle, heal, touch, close (the door), leave it, catch, and kisses! He can also do most of these commands both verbally or with just hand gestures! Nova is just a baby but learning very quickly! She knows sit, stay, come, place, leave it, spin, and is working on roll over and heel.
