Well Rounded Dog Enthusiast

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs in a variety of professional settings. I’ve worked as a kennel technician, veterinary assistant, groomer, and trainer, so I know how to handle pets with all kinds of personalities and needs. I’m certified in pet CPR and safety, and I’m confident caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments—including those with medical needs or behavioral quirks. Whether it’s giving meds, going for long walks, brushing out a coat, or just giving belly rubs and playtime, your pet’s well-being and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like my own and provide calm, patient, and attentive care—because they deserve it! I’d love to meet your furry family member and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m pet CPR and first aid certified, with hands-on experience in safety holds and bite prevention. I’m also well-versed in canine body language and have experience safely managing and de-escalating tense situations, including separating dog fights if necessary. Your pet’s safety is my top priority, and I’m fully prepared to handle emergencies or behavioral challenges with calm, confident care.

Information Kelsie V. would like to know about your pet

I will need to know of any health issues and medications the pet may have. I do not have any breed preferences, I love all breeds from chihuahuas to Great Danes.

A typical day

I love hiking and exploring local parks, playing tug, fetch, scent games, and agility. I also really enjoy brushing up on obedience, handling, and teaching a new trick or two.
