Pets Are Family, I Treat Them Right

I know how important your pets are to you, and how stressful it can be to find someone you trust to care for them while you’re away. With animals in my life for as long as I can remember, and currently caring for three senior dogs of my own, I truly understand the bond you share with your pets. That’s exactly why I joined Rover – to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are in loving hands. Whether it’s puppies, seniors, or pets with special medical needs, I have experience caring for all temperaments, ages, sizes, and breeds. My background as a director at an animal rescue has expanded my skills and knowledge, so I can confidently manage a wide range of pet care situations. When I’m not providing care for other pets, my husband and I enjoy spending time outdoors – and when we can, our dogs come along to enjoy the adventure with us. Rest assured, your pets will receive the same love and attention I give my own while you’re away. I look forward to meeting your pets and helping them feel safe, happy, and cared for!

Safety, trust & environment

I am not able to board pets in my home as my three senior dogs are pretty accustomed to their own pack but I am more than happy to go to your home.

House Sitting • Apr 01, 2025

I’ve used Rover a few times now and Kelsy was by far the best sitter we have had. She is caring, loving and most importantly so considerate to our dog’s needs and wishes. We felt so comfortable being away knowing Kelsy was there. We will definitely use her services again.

Dog Walking • Mar 24, 2025

Kelsy was really amazing and helpful! I needed someone to take my energy-filled husky on long walks after I had knee surgery and I found Kelsy on Rover. She was communicative, open, friendly, and obviously loves dogs. She took my dog on a nice long jog every day and wore her out! Then she helped me by filling her bowl with water and food, and even got me water too (since I was on crutches and it was hard for me to move around). I will definitely seek her services when I need them again, and I recommend her to anyone needing a dog-walker.

Kelsy was great! She was so patient with my new learning pup! Kelsy made sure she had a clean area to stay in after her walk, sent photos, and was prompt/on time. Recommend to anyone and their pup.

Kelsy went above and beyond looking after my dog. Will definitely be using her services again next time I travel out of town.

Kelsy is an exceptional pet sitter who truly cares for every animal she looks after. Her love for animals shines through in the way she treats them—providing comfort, attention, and plenty of playtime. She’s incredibly attentive to their needs, ensuring they feel safe and loved while in her care. I’ve seen firsthand how she goes above and beyond, making sure my dogs have a positive, stress-free experience. Kelsy’s genuine passion for animals is evident in everything she does. She takes the time to get to know each dog’s unique personality and routine, ensuring they feel right at home. Whether it’s taking them for walks, giving them belly rubs, or simply offering companionship, Kelsy’s care is unwavering. I’ve never seen my dogs more relaxed and happy than when they’re with her. If you want a pet sitter who truly treats your pet like family and with the love and respect they deserve, Kelsy is the one person you can trust without hesitation.

I worked with Kelsy at Austinpetsalive where she was the Director of customer service and managed a large team. Kelsy has a deep and passionate love for all animals. She is incredibly responsible, courteous, and would make a great addition to any company or organization.
