Professional & trustworthy pet care
Pet care experience
EXPERIENCE My name is Kelsey and I’ve been walking and caring for dogs in various capacities for more than 15 years. I’ve worked with elderly neighbors to get their dogs outside for regular exercise and bathroom breaks, and I also worked at an independent pet supply store in DC as a dog walker, pet sitter, and cashier. I’ve received dog safety and behavioral training as a walker and really enjoy meeting all different kinds of dogs, from 4-pound senior chihuahuas to 125-pound Swiss mountain dogs, and everything in between! I have completed more than 130 services on a competitor pet care platform, earning a 4.99 rating. I'm excited to meet new clients and pets via Rover! GETTING TO KNOW YOU AND YOUR PETS I love learning about the unique personalities, preferences, and care needs of each animal I work with. Any info you can share about your pet's behavior, routines, likes/dislikes, etc. is helpful. I am flexible and willing to work with you to provide the best care possible for your animals! Upfront communication is so helpful. WHAT I OFFER - Services: walks, drop-in visits, boarding - My personality: positive, prompt, communicative, trustworthy, smiley - I have experience with oral medicine administration (nothing like burying a pill in a piece of string cheese or a scoop of peanut butter!)
Reviews
Lucky pup when he gets to hang with Kelsey ;-)
Kelsey was great with my dog Brandy, she sent updates throughout the day and my pup loved her. Would 100% recommend!
Kelsey is amazing! Our dog Panko adores her and her partner. It gives us such peace of mind to leave him with Kelsey, knowing he will get care, attention, and love. Kelsey gives fantastic updates, is reliable and responsive, and a terrific person. We appreciate you!
Kelsey is great! My mini doodle Penelope is in great hands whenever she stays with Kelsey- super communicative and caring

Safety, trust & environment
I live in a walk-up building with ~4 flights of stairs, so if your pup requires an elevator, I’m not the best fit for daycare or boardings. I do not have any other animals at home.
Home
Information Kelsey P. would like to know about your pet
Open to all breeds! Helpful information to know before sitting (anything you're able to share is helpful; some of this might not be relevant to your situation): - walk routine (frequency, duration, preferred destinations) - feeding routine (times, amount) - sleep routine (favorite spot, normal hours) - commands and rewards - triggers / behavior with other dogs - allergies or other medical information - quirks / unique behavior
A typical day
I live close to Central Park for walks, and Riverside Park isn’t too far either. We can also fit in playtime with toys and snuggles on the couch.
