About Kelsey
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! My name is Kelsey, and I am a remote certified health coach. I have grown up with pets from a young age, and found a few years ago that when my apartment was deemed not pet friendly, that I needed my animal fix in other ways! Because I work from home, I started accepting occasional dog/house sitting gigs, and now it has turned into a part time job and I LOVE IT! I have cared for over 20 different dogs in the past 3 years, as well as chickens, cats, and even hamsters. :) I know how stressful it can be to leave your loved one home with a stranger, which is why I like to set up some "meet and greet" play dates ahead of time, to make the transition easier for them. I can assure you that while you are gone many walks, treats, and belly rubs will be had! Please note: At this time I am only accepting in-house sittings. Thank you for your interest!
