Your dogs new best friend

Pet care experience

As a performer who travels the world by sea, I know how comforting the love of an animal can be and while I’m away I miss that connection so much! I have loved, snuggled, and pet animals around the world and while I’m back on land I would love the opportunity to give your pets the same attention! I’ve had dogs my whole life and grew up in a home full of furry friends. My parents volunteer with Duo Dogs, so our house has always been a revolving door of puppies and big dogs alike. Two of our English Labs are especially sensitive to fireworks and thunderstorms, so I’m no stranger to calming anxious pups with patience, love, and a gentle hand. Whether it’s a walk around the block, a game of fetch, some cozy snuggle time, or maybe it’s your turn to get out and see the world, I’m here to keep your pets happy and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is wide open during my time home-so don’t hesitate to reach out and let’s set something up!

Kelsey took such good care of the pups and is a lovely person. Anyone would be lucky to have her watch their pups!

Kelsey took amazing care of our pups, did a great job communicating and went above and beyond. We will definitely book her in the future!

I wouldn’t think twice about trusting Kelsey with the care of my pets. She is no stranger to what it takes to care for an animal. Her and her family help train service dogs as well as owning dogs themselves. Not only is she the definition of a dog lover she also leads a very active life style and will have no problem playing with your fur babies and taking them on walks. She is extremely caring and will always be considerate of your pets needs. There is no one I’d trust more than Kelsey to look over my fur babies!

Kelsey has a deep and genuine passion for dogs, which is clear, in the way she cares for her own three at home. She’s not only a loving caregiver, but also highly attentive to each a dog’s needs, moods, and behaviors – always ensuring their happiness, comfort, and well-being. Kelsey is mature, responsible, and thoughtful in everything she does. Anyone would be lucky to have her care for their dogs and I wholeheartedly recommend her.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I offer care in your home where your pet feels most secure and relaxed. I always follow your instructions closely, respect your space, and treat your home with care. You can trust that your pet will be loved, safe, and well looked after while you’re away.

Information Kelsey R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs ahead of time. I have had senior dogs and nervous dogs before. As long as I am aware of anything important, they will be safe with me. If your dog tends to pull on walks, I prefer a heads up on that. I am strong, but that is always good to be aware of!

A typical day

I love getting outside with dogs! Going on walks or playing fetch is so nice especially when the weather is good. If your dog is more relaxed, I am a professional cuddler. As long as you communicate your dogs needs, I am sure I can provide.

Since I am taking a land break, my schedule is very open! I enjoy my time at the gym, but other than that I don’t have many routine commitments.
