Pet care experience

Pawsitively Great Sitter!

I’ve loved furbabies (dogs & cats and basically any living being) my whole life and grew up helping care for them from a young age. My pup Taz, who I adopted at 10 weeks old, has taught me so much about canine behavior and care. He is currently almost five years old and thriving. I used to work fully remote and we've lived the best van life for a few years, so he's been through and seen it all from coast to coast. I also have over seven years of hands-on experience helping my mom, a dog breeder, care for 20+ litters of puppies. Through that, I’ve built strong skills in puppy care, socialization, and basic training. I’ve even helped certify therapy dogs and participated in visits to hospitals and community spaces, so I’m comfortable handling dogs in different environments. I work a hybrid schedule, (mainly home most of the time) which allows me to give your furbabies lots of attention throughout the day. I make sure they get regular walks, playtime, and personalized care so they feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved.

Doggy Day Care • Jul 18, 2026

From our first communication, I knew.... Kendell is such a beautiful and loving person inside and out. Her love and joy pour out of her. My Buttercup had no hesitation leaving with her and her precious pup, Taz. My heart was happy because I knew this was a new chapter for my little girl who has had a difficult season of instability. I appreciated that Kendell could pick up and drop her back off. The photos confirmed what I already knew. My fur baby was safe, comfortable, happy, and doing zoomies! In Kendell and Taz, Buttercup and I have found new friends and we are so excited to start this new journey together.

Kendell was wonderful with our dog Bill. She was very communicative and responsive with us. She was so kind and gentle that Bill was comfortable with her immediately. She sent us pictures and updates and left us feeling secure in knowing that Bill was in good hands. We would absolutely recommend her and would book with her again when in Santa Fe.

Schedule

As a deaf person, I’m highly observant and attentive, which naturally carries into how I care for your furbabies. I build pet care into my daily routine to ensure they receive consistent attention, structure, and love. Each day typically starts with a morning walk or playtime, followed by feeding and a quick check in to make sure your furbaby is comfortable and doing well. With a super flexible schedule, I can also include enrichment, play, and outdoor outings when appropriate, while balancing that with plenty of calm rest and supervised downtime. In the evening, we usually have another walk or play session, followed by dinner and a relaxed wind down. Overall, I maintain a steady routine of walks, meals, play, rest, and close observation so your furbabies feel secure, supported, and well cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide steady supervision, regular walks, and engaging activities like playtime. With your approval, I can also take dogs out for walks and social time at a nearby park. I keep a calm, structured routine with a balance of activity and downtime, and I always follow your furbaby's usual schedule to help them feel comfortable and settled. My pup, Taz, is a social butterfly! He adores and gets along with every single pup he has ever encountered from all over the United States while on the road. If your furbaby wants company, he will be the perfect duo. If your furbaby wants to chill, he will gladly give them space to chill. I call Taz the "Rover Whisperer".

Pets

A typical day

Each day includes structured walks in nearby trails or parks, along with a calm, predictable routine that helps your pups feel secure and settled. I balance activity and downtime through regular walks, enrichment games, and rest, so pets stay engaged without becoming overstimulated. I also make space for quiet bonding and relaxation throughout the day, helping your furbabies feel comfortable, supported, and emotionally at ease.

I’d love to learn about your furbabies routines, habits, and any comfort items that help them feel secure, whether it’s a favorite toy, blanket, or specific feeding schedule. I always do my best to follow their normal routine closely to make the transition smooth and familiar.
