Pet care experience

Reliable, Loving Pet Care

I’ve had dogs my entire life and genuinely love being around animals. I’ve cared for my own dogs as well as pets for friends and family, so I’m comfortable with a variety of personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I’m home most of the time, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and consistent care throughout the day. My experience includes daily walks, trips to the dog park, playtime in the backyard, feeding routines, and making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that means extra exercise, lots of affection, or a calm, relaxed environment. You can trust that your pet will be treated like part of the family while they’re in my care.

Kessia did a wonderful job stopping in at our house and letting Holly out and feeding her. She also let my granddaughter’s dog out and fed him. Kessia did a great job even though she hadn’t met Clyde before. I would definitely use her again.

House Sitting • Aug 23, 2026

We sent a request just a few days before we needed a sitter for our three dogs. Kessia was able to come meet us/our pups that evening! She was also patient with our very fearful doodle and even earned enough of his trust for him to go near her (which is a huge deal!). She had extremely fast responses from the time I sent the booking request to when the job was done, which I really appreciated!

Boarding • Aug 11, 2026

We left Maggie with Kessia for her 1st, 2 night stay over. She loves to have stay overs and play time with Trudy and Gunther. She gets excited when we tell her we're going to their house. And the transition home again is always good. Sometimes she'll display a new fun behavior, like a special way to sit for treats, slightly different than what she's done in the past. It's fun to see her grow.

Schedule

I have a very flexible schedule and am home most of the time, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks, including weekdays and weekends. Because I’m home often, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and I can easily adjust to their normal routine, whether that’s frequent potty breaks, regular walks, or extra playtime.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and secure environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I have two dogs of my own, a Beagle/Heeler and a teacup Yorkie. I always take the time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and any special needs to ensure they receive personalized care. I’m attentive, patient, and keep a close eye on pets at all times, whether we’re indoors, outside, or on walks. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.
