Lover of all creatures 🐱🐶🐔🦎🐍🐠

Pet care experience

I practically grew up with a zoo. We always had minimum 2 dogs & 3 cats. I loved volunteering at shelters. Now my husband and I own 2 dogs & 2 cats of our own and have done a little fostering. We are the designated pet sitters in our friend group! We spoil our guests and they have free range to the house. No kids yet because our animals are our kids! I’m also happy to watch chickens, snakes, parrots, fish, tarantulas, you name it!

Kelsey was amazing! With a small zoo at home we were worried about leaving them. Kelsey spoiled them, played and took care of everything!! I will not hesitate to call Kelsey again!

Kelsey was a last minute call. We were in need of someone to sit for a few hours while we were out of town for the following day. Kelsey promptly replied, communicated quickly and openly. We didn’t have time for a meet and greet so, we had to trust the Rover process and it worked out great. Kelsey sent pics and followed all the instructions completely!! We have a vacation coming up and will reach out to her again. Highly recommended. Thanks again Kelsey

So amazing! Played and fed both of my dogs when I needed. My puppy is afraid of people at first but eventually he warms up and he did great with her. She played ball and their favorite game with the hose with them so they both were able to get some exercise when I was away. I really appreciate everything and I highly recommend!

We cannot thank Kelsey enough for dropping in on Alby this weekend. She spent extra time playing and snuggling with our little guy in addition to walking him, and she even had a few tricks to help him eat his food (sometimes he doesn’t eat as easily when we’re away)! We’re so grateful for her thorough updates and the cute pictures she sent! We knew our pup was in good hands and that peace of mind means everything. Can’t recommend her enough!

Safety, trust & environment

I’m very familiar with all personalities of pets. Safety is my number one concern. I’m good at giving medicine and following household rules. I want it to be as stress free & normal for your furry friend as possible!

Information Kelsey S. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know what their normal walk route is, if they have any triggers, preferences, or allergies! I love to keep things as normal as possible for them.

A typical day

I love to get them outside to sniff and romp around. I have many fun puzzle toys I can bring to keep them entertained outside. I’m down to go to any park and don’t mind sitting to let them sight see.
