Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I’m experienced with animal handling, leash safety, and reading body language to prevent stressful situations. My home is clean, organized, and pet-safe. I also ensure doors, gates, and leashes are always secured properly. I follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, medications, routines, and any special needs. I never introduce pets to new environments or other animals without your consent.

Information Kelsey M. would like to know about your pet

What I Like to Know Ahead of Time: • Your pet’s daily routine (feeding times, walks, potty breaks) • Any medical needs, medications, or allergies • How your dog behaves on leash and around other dogs/people • Energy level and preferred walk style • Any triggers, fears, or special instructions

A typical day

Walks tailored to your pet, including calm neighborhood routes, nearby parks, or the dog park when appropriate and approved by the owner. Plenty of affection and downtime, whether that means cozy cuddles on the couch or relaxing with toys and soft blankets. Healthy, locally sourced treats from the pet store (only with owner permission). Engaging playtime suited to your pet’s energy level, using toys such as ropes, plush toys, balls, frisbees, or interactive games.

Pet care experience

Bonjour / Hi! My name is Kelsey, and caring for animals has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with animals both in the city and on farms, and I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I have a special soft spot for senior dogs and pets who may need a little extra patience or attention. I previously cared for a senior pet of my own, so I understand how important routine, gentleness, and trust are. I’ve also run my own dog-walking business in the past, with many repeat clients and happy, well-cared-for dogs. Safety, consistency, and making sure your pet feels comfortable with me are always my top priorities. I live near several parks and green spaces in Villeray, including a dog park for social pups, as well as quieter routes for dogs who prefer calmer walks. Walks are always tailored to your dog’s energy level and personality. I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets my full attention. I always send photo updates and messages so you can feel confident and relaxed while your pet is in my care. I’m happy to do a meet & greet before booking and answer any questions you may have. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members!

Kelsey was my go-to choice whenever I needed somebody to take my dog Keesha for a walk or to look after her when I was away. She is friendly, trustworthy, and I would recommend her services to anyone who needs them.

I had to leave my cat with her for a night and I think she did a great job. Great service, amazing caregiver! Would recommend 10/10

I've known Kelsey my sister my whole life and she always has had a passion for taking care of animals. We never had a dog growing up but that didn't stop her! I can remember being a little kid helping Kelsey run her own dog walking business. She started her business when she was around 12-13 years old and it was a very successful. She genuinely loved spending time with the dogs we looked after, it wasn't just for the money. Kelsey has also personally owned and taken care of a wide variety of animals with particular needs over the years including a pair of bearded dragons, hamsters, betta fish, cats and dogs. She currently is taking care of her elderly cat and making his life the best it can be, he truly looks like a happy cat! If I had to leave town or needed my dog looked after, my first reaction would be to ask Kelsey because she's been doing it for so long and is good at it!

Kelsey is such a selfless and kind hearted person, and nothing demonstrates that more than her love and care for animals. While she doesn’t have a dog of her own at the moment, this is best demonstrated through the love and care that she provides her cat Killian. She works hard to ensure that he is happy, healthy and comfortable, in their Montreal home.
