Highlights
Pet care experience
Just another pet-loving millennial.
I'm Kelsie! I live in Madison Heights with 3 cats, 2 dogs, and 1 husband. I work in marketing from my home during the day, and I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to adjust to your schedule as needed. I also bartend on the weekends and occasional weeknight, but I can usually work around that schedule with enough notice. I've had animals my entire life, and growing up I was the primary caregiver for all the family pets from a young age. I have experience raising cats, dogs, and birds. I love pure breeds and support responsible breeding, but I personally love to rescue dogs. My husband and I have made a lot of progress with our rescues, building confidence and obedience training. They've developed good habits through our work and are well socialized with dogs of all sizes, cats, and children (although we don't have children ourselves.) We use primarily positive reinforcement for training, never more than a stern "no" in response to negative behavior. The closest thing to "punishment" that we practice is gently isolating the dog long enough to calm him down if he gets too riled up and stops listening. I am not a trained professional, but if you have any behavioral issues you would like to work on I would be happy to help based on my own experiences! I occasionally ask my husband to accompany me on visits for safety or an extra hand, especially if it's a new client or multiple dogs. I will always let you know if that's the case, and if you prefer not to let him in your home/around your pets we will adjust accordingly. Thank you for your time, I look forward to working with you!

Safety, trust & environment
My typical rover experiences involve walking dogs, playing with cats, and refilling food and water. I also have experience caring for rabbits, chickens, and exotic birds. I place a lot of value on clear, transparent communication. Therefore I text my clients often with updates and detailed descriptions of their pets care and conditions, making sure to include plenty of pictures.
Ratings and reviews
Another great experience with, Kelsie. She kept a close eye on my Cindy Lou Who and took great care of her.
Very loved by my pets
As always our pets are treated with the greatest care!
Kelsie did a fantastic job taking care of my cat, Cindy Lou Who. She spent quality time playing with her and getting to know her. She also made sure she had plenty of food, water, and treats. She really went the extra mile for her. I look forward to booking her again and highly recommend her. Thank you, Kelsie!

Schedule
I'm fortunate to have a flexible work schedule, and have very few problems accommodating my clients' needs and finding solutions for various concerns. I know firsthand how important it can be to respect a pet's established schedule, especially when their owner is away and their anxiety might be heightened.
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsKelsie can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
- Please be upfront with any special needs or behavioral issues. I've seen it all and can handle a lot, but it's important to know what I'm walking into beforehand so I can give your pet the best possible care. Here's an example of some helpful information to include beforehand: 1. General feeding and walking schedules 2. Home and pet security information regarding locks, alarms, cameras, gates, kennels, etc. 3. Health information including dietary restrictions, allergies, health conditions, and medication needs 4. General traits, characteristics, and behavioral patterns of each animal 5. Location and storage of pet-related itemssuch as food, pet bowls, cages, litter boxes, treats, toys, leashes, medications, towels, cleaning supplies, etc. 6. Safety concerns including but not limited to: potential for animals to try and escape, aggression or anxiety problems, hazards such as cabinets or garbage cans that could be broken into, damaged property, possesions, or yard hazards that could cause a safety concern, potential danger on the commute or within the neighborhood, etc.
