Active stay at home dog parents!

Hello, fellow dog lovers! We live in downtown Charleston and would love to watch your dog. We graduated from USC in 2020 and moved to Charleston from NYC. We like to spend our free time walking the pitt street bridge, going to the beach (only dog-friendly ones!), and recently getting into intense pickleball matches. Animals have a special place in our hearts and after college, we decided to adopt! We have a four year old Australian shepherd/Golden retriever named Sallie. She is the sweetest dog always looking for a friend to run around with. You can trust your baby with us!

Kelsey watched my little dog for 3 nights. She was friendly, professional, responsive and send updates. Luca was comfortable and safe with them. I appreciated that he got lots of walks and could join their daily routine.

Kelsey was absolutely fantastic! I felt so comfortable with her watching my pup. She sent lots of updates and was so patient with my energetic lab. She really took care of my pet and would recommend her to anyone!

Kelsey was awesome with my little guy tank! Booked last second and communication was superb! Received tons of photos and updates throughout. Highly recommend Kelsey and can’t wait to book with her again!

Kelsey is an incredibly responsible and caring person. i personally have had her watch my 12 year old golden retriver on several ocassions who required extra attention due to his medical conditions. Kelsey is trustworthy and as avid animal lover she goes above and beyond for the dogs she takes care of. As a dog owner I feel 100% comfortable knowing my dog is being taken care of to the higest standards. I highly recommend Kelsey as a dog sitter to everyone I know!

Hi hope you are well, I have known Kelsey for over 3 years now, and she is an incredible dog caregiver. She babysat my beagle/lab mix and my pit/lab mix just this past summer as well as our friend's terrier. She is very patient, consistent, and diligent when it comes to dog sitting. She follows caregiving instructions clearly, but goes above and beyond to play overtime with the dogs. She has so much love to give and it would be silly for anyone to think twice about her caregiving skills. Thanks!

Schedule

I'm fully remote and my husband works downtown! We take our dog Sallie to the park in the three times a day. On the weekend, we love to go for morning walks all over Charleston. Tiring out the doggos is our main priority when we have a visitor.

Pets

A typical day

Where I take your animal for walks is completely up to you! I'm comfortable traveling with your pet and exploring fun areas to play. We're very active in the mornings will wake up early to go to the gym and be home before Sallies breakfast time. After breakfast we usually walk to Hampton park or downtown to some coffee shops.

I do not have any breed preference! Something I would like to know about your pet is if they are pet/human friendly. Also, if your dog is into humping other dogs. Just so I'm aware of what makes your pet uncomfortable as well as our dog Sallie.
