Your Pet is Part of My Family

You can be reassured that I will take care of your dog as if they were my own. I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and have always had dogs (including fostering a few dogs). Your dog will be loved and treated like a part of my family! My dog Ellie loves other dogs and will be a great playmate. Regular walks and even hikes depending on your dog’s fitness level will be part of our routine.

Kelsey was so good with my girls. They were excited to see her every day. She was very punctual and communicated very well. We had to adjust the time for one of our walks and she was very flexible.

My girls are both very happy to see Kelsey and come back from their walk ready for a nap.

My Gracie is a cranky girl but Kelsey was patient while I tried some tactics to calm her down for the walk. By the end of the walk Gracie and Kelsey were friends. I was so pleased!!

Kelsey is an exceptional dog sitter who took amazing care of my golden retriever, Toko. Toko was a high-maintenance pup who demanded constant attention and had a bit of a moody streak—especially on walks. Kelsey handled him with so much patience and skill, using perfectly timed treats to keep him happy and on track with his diet. She also understood Toko's tendency to eat literally anything in sight. Her home was always carefully prepared and free of any temptations—from food to paper—giving me real peace of mind whenever he stayed with her. Beyond just sitting, we’ve also gone on hikes together with her own dog, and I’ve seen firsthand how great she is with active dogs too. Whether your dog needs calm structure or a ton of exercise, Kelsey knows exactly how to meet their needs. I can't recommend her highly enough!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I work part-time, typically gone for a max of 4 hours at a time. If I anticipate being gone longer than 4 hours during your pets stay, I’ll let you know in advance to ensure it is a good fit. Daily walks will be part of the routine and if your dog is up for it I love a good hike too!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard with a pool. The pool has a shallow end (~2’) and a deeper end (~5’), if your dog is a swimmer they can jump right in. If your dog isn’t a swimmer, outdoor time will be monitored to ensure safety. Dogs are allowed on the furniture, including sometimes on the bed. I’ll keep up your routines around furniture and crating to keep your pet on their best behavior.

Let me know if there are any special requests that need to be accommodated. Pets should get along with other dogs and I would love to do a meet and greet to ensure a good fit. If I anticipate being gone longer than 4 hours at anytime during your stay I will let you know in advance to make sure it is a good fit!
