WFH animal lover!

Pet care experience

I love animals of all kinds and am excited to get to know yours! Grew up with dogs and help raise a very sweet tuxedo cat from a kitten. Always at the top of my friends call list to watch their pets while on vacations since I LOVE having a buddy to hang around and play with! Especially true since I now work from home at a remote job every day. Ready and excited to dote on your good boy or girl with some long walks and playtime!

Kelsey was great! Lots of walks and trips to the park while Bodhi was boarding with her. She was very responsive and kept me updated pics.

Safety, trust & environment

Always working to make sure that I have a safe and welcoming environment at my apartment for any pets who are guests there! I have bowls, dog blankets, treats and toys all ready to go, and on the lookout for a big dog bed that my bigger clients can curl up in :) Having a cat for a long time built in really good habits around food and furniture protection but let me know if there's anything specific your kiddo needs! Similarly, if I'm in your space, please let me know about any particular things you do to keep your pet happy & healthy or boundaries you have to keep your place clean & put together!

Information Kelsey W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any routines you have with your pet! Want to make them feel comfortable, safe and happy while I'm watching them, so any places they usually like to walk to, favorite toys, or bathroom schedule please just let me know!

A typical day

I love my apartment spot right by Tompkins! Lots of easy access to the dog park, Boris & Horton dog cafe, and the greenway by the East River for a long scenic walk! All of these are a great time for me, but way more fun with a buddy to enjoy them (and tire out!). Also always down for some indoor play time or couch cuddles during bad weather or once we're all tired out from our exercise. Pets are allowed (and absolutely encouraged) to hang with me on all of my furniture for some good nap time :)

I work remotely at a pretty flexible job from my apartment during the week. I always make it part of my schedule to get out and go on walks during the day, but it would be MUCH more fun to have a buddy to visit or come with me! on a long walk or play around at the dog park with though! Let me know how to best cater to your pets needs (and ideas of fun!), whether it's a long walk outside or playtime at the park, and I can plan my day with them in mind! For any kiddos with separation anxiety or medical needs, happy to have them over to chill with me at my apartment and have a buddy to talk to about my work calls!
