Pet care experience

Partner for Pups & Pibbles

I have 4 of my own furbabies but have had dogs/cat and a variety of other pets my entire life. I started dog sitting for neighbors, friends and family when I was about 15 years old which included walks, meals, playtime and overnight stays. I’m also comfortable administering insulin injections as well as other medications. I have a true passion for animals especially Shelter and Rescue pups (although all pups are perfect!) I’ve rescued senior pups and puppies, but have a soft spot for a gray snout. I have experience with all types of pets including guinea pigs, birds, bearded dragons and even a hermit crab! Having senior pups of my own, I know how stressful it can be leaving them. I’ve changed diapers, cleaned up messes of all kinds, given sponge baths and administered medication of all kinds and understand the level of patience and compassion taking care of a geriatric fur baby requires. I also enjoy making sure that your home is left cleaner than you left it (no one likes coming home from their vacation and having to clean up after their pet sitter 👎)

I have been lucky to have Keri watch my kitty on 2 occasions and both times she was communicative and took amazing care of her. Highly recommend Keri for all your fur baby needs!

Keri took such great care of my Miso (kitty) while I was away for a work trip. I was very apprehensive about leaving Miso, but Keri gave me updates and was so communicative and set me at ease. When I got back it was clear she had been very well cared for. Very happy to have found someone in the area I can rely on to care of my fur child! ?

Keri was great over our week long trip- she jumped right in during the holiday chaos last minute for us and made sure to update us with pictures of our cats during every visit! definitely will be using her again

Keri is an incredibly compassionate human with an infinite love for canines. As a fur mama to her own rescue dogs, she will ensure your babies are treated with the same love, attention, and special care as if they were her own. I always feel beyond comfortable and anxiety-free knowing my dogs are in her care. If you are in need of a dog-sitter, look no further! Keri is the perfect human for the job and you will be able to rest easy knowing she is the one providing them the love and care they need while you are not able to be there.

What a pleasure to work with! My dog was delightfully exhausted after her run with Keri and she left treats for us as well! 10/10 ⭐️

Schedule

You'll usually find me at a party sitting on the floor with the dog, asking strangers if I can pet their pups, or sharing unsolicited photos of my own puppers. I’m also very active and love pups that don’t mind daily walks or going on a nice run! I’ve found that dogs make the best running buddies.

Safety, trust & environment

I've raised puppies of my own, pup-sat for puppies and in multi-pup homes and have experience with the sweet gray-faced seniors. I don’t mind assisting with special needs pups, mobility issues, diaper changes or sponge baths, I’ve done it all. I also have experience with all breeds, from the peanut pups to the big ol' pibbles. Don’t let my small size fool you, I can easily pick up a 150lb pup with ease if needed!

Pets

A typical day

I’m a big runner and love taking walks. I also enjoy playing ball and toss with my own pups. I’m a very active person and enjoy being outside!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Takes only 1 client at a time
Keri can host up to 1 pet per night
Let me know if your dog has any special needs, preferences or manner issues (resource guarding, not allowed high value treats, doesn’t like their paws touched) that way I can respect their boundaries. I don’t shy away from a challenge! I’ve walked big pups, teeny tinies, multiple pups at one time, leash aggressive pups, pullers, escape artists and prim and propers. Rest assured, I can handle your pup and all their quirks.
