About Kelsey S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
My home is pet-free, ensuring a comfortable environment for your pet(s), especially if they don’t get along well with other animals. Drawing from my experience with reactive dogs, I am experienced in implementing safety measures during outdoor walks or encounters with other animals.
Information Kelsey S. would like to know about your pet
It’s important for me to know about any special needs or routines your pets have, like dietary restrictions, medications, or allergies. I’d also love to know about their personality—whether they’re shy, energetic, or have any favorite toys or activities. It’s helpful to know if they get along well with other animals or if they prefer quiet spaces. Any behavioral quirks, like separation anxiety or fear of loud noises, will help me create a comfortable environment for them. Lastly, knowing their usual schedule for walks, feeding, and sleep helps me keep their routine consistent while you're away!
A typical day
When I watch pets, I love keeping them engaged with a mix of fun activities. I usually plan playtime sessions that match their energy levels, whether it’s playing fetch, going for long walks, interactive toys to keep their minds stimulated, or just ensuring a comfortable home for them to relax in. For more laid-back pets, I enjoy giving them extra attention with belly rubs and cuddles. If they enjoy exploring, we might venture to a nearby park or dog-friendly area for a little adventure. Overall, my goal is to keep them happy, active, and comfortable while you're away!

Pets’ Best Pal: Reliable Pet Care
Pet care experience
With a lifelong ownership of dogs and cats, my experience expanded into rescue fostering in 2021. During this time, I have successfully handled pets that deal with separation anxiety, reactivity, handicaps, and limited obedience/cooperation. I am genuinely excited to learn more about your pet(s), their specific care requirements, and their quirks. I’d love to have responsibility of being your trusted caretaker while you’re away!
Reviews
Kelsey was very trustworthy with our dogs and very responsive! I felt extremely comfortable leaving our boys with her. Would definitely book her again!
Kelsey was absolutely amazing - the best sitter we have had. She was so kind, knowledgeable and supportive with our elderly dog. Our dog absolutely loved Kelsey and came home to us happy, healthy, confident and relaxed. We could tell she received wonderful care. Thank you Kelsey!!
Kelsey was amazing watching our two dogs! Very accommodating on pickup and drop off times and gave us updates throughout their entire stay. Will definitely consider her again the next time we need a sitter!
The best pet sitters and walkers are the ones who put your heart at ease by communicating with you frequently when they are with your pet; and that sitter is Kelsey. She is prompt, reliable, trustworthy and will update me when needed which is always comforting. My dogs had an instant connection with her and love her to pieces.
