Pro-Trainer Gone Small-Time
Pet care experience
*We do not accept bookings that give less than 48 hour notice from the start date. Sorry!* I am a professional dog trainer and former breeder of Australian Shepherds. My family moved from Washington State to Oklahoma and in order to make friends and get out of the house I decided to join Rover as a sitter! In WA I ran a fully operational boarding facility and board and train program. I have 20 years of experience training dogs- 15 of those years being a paid, licensed and insured professional. I take the utmost care of any animal in my charge. I treat them like family and honor all the requests made by owners to ensure their pet is treated perfectly when they are gone! I understand the love and care people have for their animals and do everything I can to show that same level of care when they are under my watch. I take videos and photos regularly to keep families updated, as well!
Reviews
Worked great with my dog! Had some very good suggestion and made some observations that I had thought about! 10/10! I would definitely recommend!
Kelsey was great! Will definitely use her again to keep our lab Pearl.
Kelsey is amazing, my demi was having a lot of separation anxiety and she helped handle it so I could enjoy my vacation!!! Definitely recommend her over and over again and hope to use her again if we need to!!!! 10 STARS ?
River and Gordie had the best time at their favorite sleepover place! Thanks again Kelsey!!

We currently have 18 acres of property for dogs to run on. Our land is not fully fenced. Client dogs that are off leash reliable go in daily runs with our dogs after a release of liability is signed. Clients who are not off leash reliable get several walks on a 100 ft long line around the acreage. I am equipped to manage all varieties of dogs from the easiest house guest to dog aggressive cases or complicated medical needs. I tailor my services to each individual dog to give them the best possible care and allow their people to have some freedom and know their dog is well cared for. I am able to make multiple daily trips to feed, potty and play with client dogs in their homes. My times are very flexible and have often done combo stays- where your dog stays the night with me and I drive it to your home during the day and pick up again in the evening. This works well for senior dogs or puppies who need monitoring over night.

No breed preferences here! No restrictions, either! The only rules are: they must also be safe around children. My kids accompany me on some visits and walks- and are always safe around dogs and I limit all contact. And for in our home boarding, your dog must be house trained and crate trained. While I am here 95% of the time with them, I do have kids and have to buy groceries and run basic errands. During these times we prefer all dogs to be crated for their personal safety. If your dog is not crate trained they will use a 5 x 5 kennel in our garage.
A typical day
When boarding in our home, they will get to live like they do in their own house. Hanging out, lounging around and playing in our yard. We always monitor dogs outside for safety reasons. Dogs will be crated overnight for their safety. If they are not crate trained, they will use a 5 x 5 kennel in our garage overnight.
