Availability

I am starting a new job that will be mostly remote so I will have flexibility for house sitting. I will also have availability in the mornings, evenings, and on the weekends for checkins and walks.

Safety, trust & environment

I am very respectful of any house rules while dog sitting. I have watched dogs that cannot be alone in yards or need to be crated while alone or during the night. I will do everything I need to make sure the dog is comfortable while I watch them and to respect your home.

Information Kelly I. would like to know about your pet

If there are any dietary needs or specific allergies. Also if they have any specific triggers (i.e. baseball caps). I would also appreciate knowing how a dog first reacts when someone walks in the door

A typical day

I love to take dogs on walks and practice any tricks they know. I'm happy to work on any commands, especially since this can be great mental stimulation. And if a dog just wants to sit and be pet or just sit in the same room, I'm fine with that too!

Cat care experience

Several friends have cats and love watching them whenever I can! I am used to friendly cats that enjoy more interaction and cuddles and love to hang with them. I am have watched cats that are more wary of new people and completely respect their need for more space. I am happy to check food and water bowls, play with them, clean out litter boxes, and whatever else your cat may need!

I highly recommend Kelly. She took great care of my cat, feeding him with clean dishes everyday and scooping his litter box. Because he is a hider and required no play time, she did not mind watering the plants on my small patio. She reported signs he was okay on every visit. I will definitely be using her again.

Kelly was fantastic! I trusted her completely when leaving my cat for the first time. She was responsive, caring, and made the whole experience stress-free. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Each sitter joining needs to pass an identity verification. And by booking on Cat in a Flat, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
