Safety, trust & environment
I don’t have a fenced in yard, but I do like to go on walks. I typically like the dog to stay at their home and I come there so they are more comfortable in their own environments. I do have a crate at my house if needed. I don’t mind keeping them with me as well :)

Where happy tails begin🐾
Pet care experience
I bring patience, reliability, and lots of belly rubs. You’ll get consistent updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your dog is safe, happy, and loved. I have been dog sitting for over 10 years and I have had several dogs of my own. I have been with several different types as well as aggressive and deaf dogs. I understand that every dog has unique needs, routines, and comfort levels, and I take the time to make sure they feel secure and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or a calm and quiet environment, I’m happy to tailor care to what makes them happiest. My goal is to treat every dog like family and make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable from start to finish.
Reviews
Kelsey was great for our three pups! She was very communicative as I have a dog that needs meds and she let me know each time they were administered, per request. She adjusted her schedule so they were not left alone too long on the day she needed to work and added an extra day to her stay, last minute. Pups were very happy upon our return. Will def use her again. Thanks Kelsey!

Kelsey is hands down THE BEST! I've always had dogs but never needed a sitter. I had week long trip coming up and for the first time in 40 years I found myself searching for someone to care for my Benny. Kelsey was quick to reply to my inquiry, offered me an abundance of reassurance and took all worries off my shoulders. We communicated effortlessly before, during, and even the day after my trip when she made sure Benny settled back in at home. I received adorable pictures, videos and updates throughout Benny's stay. Thank you Kelsey!!!!! I look forward to reaching out the next time Benny needs a friend to hang out with. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ (10 stars)




Absolutely amazing! Went above and beyond!

I am very disappointed and upset with how it went. I don’t like to leave negative reviews, but when it comes to pet care I must. For me Macie is family and is my “kid”. Let me also preface by noting that nothing I am writing here has not been already conveyed directly to Kelsy over the phone. While our meet and greets seemed to go well, the actual stay did not. Kelsey knew that I work from home, and am typically only gone around 4 hours, 6 once in a while. But definitely not several long periods in one day. Macie is used to that and being outside a lot, whether it be on the deck or roaming the yard. And how she loves to play outside. Kelsey told me she worked part time and was able to work from home one day a week and sometimes more, and that she would be around on the weekends. That is not at all what happened. She was gone more than she was here and Macie had very little time outside. When she did let her out, Kelsey did not give Macie time to sniff around but instead rushed here and nudged her forcing her with her feet to go down the deck steps. Several times I see Macie’s, legs give. When I asked Kelsey about this, she said she never touched her. Only once after several days did she even go down into the yard with Macie and I think that was just to get a picture. (Pictures are deceptive) I did not see her actually take the ball out or take any toys out and play with Macie in the yard. In addition to that, she would trick Macie to come in by saying “I’m leaving” and walk in the house and slam the door, or ask Macie if she wanted to “go for a ride”. So Macie would think she was getting to go for a ride, but she was not. You just don’t do that to dogs, they know what “go for a ride means”! I came home to a very distraught and sick puppy. She was sick both ways and not only had she chewed her crate bed while I was gone, which she hadn’t done since she was a puppy, but she also had chewed on her crate – a wood end table type crate. She NEVER had done that before and Kelsey didn’t even notice!! Thankfully, after 3 days, and being on rice and chicken, Macie is doing much better. She is not getting sick but still has off and on diarrhea. Bottom line, Kelsey lacked patience, compassion and attentiveness in taking care of my Macie.
