Veterinary Experience & Pet Lover!

Pet care experience

Hello! I'm Kelsey and I specialize in care for senior pets, animals that require medicine or injections, dogs and cats with special needs and animals doing physical rehabilitation. While I have quite a bit of experience in this realm, I love LITERALLY every single dog and cat and would love to hang out with yours even if they don’t fall into this category! I have hands on experience with all kinds of conditions including: -epilepsy -diabetes -dementia -arthritis -post surgical care -kidney disease -heart disease -cushings disease and others. I also have experience with behaviorally 'challenged' dogs. Let me know if that's the situation and I'd be happy to learn all about your dogs triggers and help set your pooch up for success! Every pet is different, so we can work together to create a care plan that works best for your kid. I’ve been lovin’ on dogs my whole life (and getting paid for it for 10 years) and I would love to meet your dog and chat with you about any specific needs they may have. I have two senior dogs of my own that are here to welcome your dog into our home. They’ve been foster siblings for 50+ dogs and have helped host many more who just came to hang out for a few days. We’re excited to get to know your pup! Dog sitting is my primary job so I'm fortunate to be able to offer your boarding or daycare dog nearly 24/7 care! Unless I have to run out for a dog walk or cat drop in visit, we'll be hanging out all day long. I have a fenced in yard so your dog will have access to the entire porch for sunbathing and yard for playing. They're never left outside unattended though.

Kelsey was amazing with our dog while he recovered from his surgery! We are so lucky to have someone we trust to take care of him when we travel.

Information Kelsey R. would like to know about your pet

- Feeding Instructions -Medicine Schedule -Are there any food allergies or sensitives? - Are they spayed/neutered? -Do they get along with other dogs? -Are they up to date on vaccines? -Do they have any triggers I should know about?

A typical day

Dog daycare, Boarding, Walks and Cat Drop In visits are tailored specifically to your animal. If you have an animal that requires long walks or runs I can do that or if you have a couch potato that likes to cuddle all day then that's what we'll do! We'll follow any furniture rules you have at home but the dogs are allowed on my furniture and often sleep in the bed with me if that's their routine at home!
