About Kelly Conn:

Hello! 

With 5 years of ICU nursing experience and a lifelong love for animals, I've dedicated my career to caregiving. I specialize in providing exceptional care for pets with complex medical needs, trauma triggers, or specific routines.

From tiny kittens to majestic horses, I've cared for a wide range of animals and have extensive experience with puppies, seniors, and various exotic pets. I offer personalized care, tailored to your pet's individual needs, and am committed to open communication and thorough planning.

I thrive on long-term stays (2-16 weeks) and offer discounted monthly rates. When you're away, I'll treat your home and pets like my own, ensuring a clean and comfortable environment upon your return.

Let's discuss your pet's unique needs and create a customized care plan! Prices start at $75 / night.

Kelly was great watching our two pets and house again. We came home to a spotless house, a clean dog, and even a mowed lawn which was so nice after being away for 8 days. We enjoyed all the pictures and videos!

Kelly took a last minute booking to sit for our 16 week old puppy. She made an excellent first impression and our pup loved her immediately. She is warm and friendly, which helps with humans and canines! Our pup felt secure and safe while we were away. Kelly followed all care directions and sent photos too. We will definitely book with Kelly again.

We had the pleasure of having Kelly sit for our furred and feathered babies for 4 days. It worked out that Kelly arrived the day before we were scheduled to start our break and this was perfect as it gave us the opportunity to walk Kelly through the routine in real-time that evening and the following morning before leaving. This gave both us and Kelly a level of comfort straight away and the opportunity to ask questions face-to-face.

We went off on our break the following day and were very comfortable and at ease that our babies were in very safe hands. This was further confirmed throughout the whole 4 days as Kelly kept us updated daily with messages and photos on how things were going. Kelly also had no problems reaching out if she had any questions or wanted to double-check on something. As an example, during our time away, Kelly had to deal with a poorly chicken and she really went over and above to make sure the chicken was comfortable and looked after properly which included hand feeding her. This was a great reflection of how Kelly cares about all the animals she is looking after and will do everything possible to ensure they are cared for appropriately.

We came back to very happy babies. It was clearly obvious that they loved Kelly and she loved them. Kelly had even groomed them and I have 4 babies who require regular grooming - their coats were soft and fluffy!

I have no hesitation at all in recommending Kelly as a sitter. She is a responsible, fun, fabulous person who loves animals and they, in turn, love her. I do hope we have the pleasure of welcoming her back in to our home, I think our babies are missing her!

This was our first time using a new website so I was a little nervous but from the moment we first spoke to Kelly I felt I'd found someone I could trust with our beloved pets. One of our dogs is anxious and has a few issues and she immediately understood her needs and assured me that she would be cared for in the same way that she is by us. Kelly sent us regular photos and updates while we were away and we came back to happy pets and a clean and tidy house - I would not hesitate to recommend her and only wish she lived closer so we could use her every time we go away!

Above and beyond!

Kelly was an amazing sitter and took great care of my dogs and my home. I could tell as soon as I met her that she was caring and smart. She made sure she knew every detail about their care, even asking questions that I didn't think to address.

Both of my dogs took to Kelly immediately! Dogs really are the best judge of character. She sent us updates and pictures everyday. During a windy and stormy day she secured all of my outside furniture and plants, and ensured that my older dog, who gets heavy anxiety when it storms, was well loved and taken care of.

Kelly is an amazing person and I would have her back to pet sit for me any time. You will not regret having her sit for you.

Homeowner in Boulder, Colorado

Kelly has looked after my cat and my house rabbit several times. Both require special care and medication and my cat was not well socialized at the time, so I was very picky in my selection. Both my pets warmed up to Kelly in a matter of days, and my once shy cat is now trusting enough to approach strangers thanks to Kelly! She went above and beyond, spending extra time with my pets and sending videos and pictures. She even made little Christmas ornaments for my pets as a holiday gift. She's my #1 choice for pet sitting.

Kelly, was great with the dogs. She was great with the house. I would use her again and again. It was such a relief to have someone we could trust, while we were gone, and not have to worry if the dogs were being taken care of. She even gave them a bath.

Homeowner in Castle Pines, Colorado

Kelly did a marvelous job with our 2 big buffoons on an extended in-home stay. The dogs warmed to her almost immediately and will be very happy to have her back in the future. Can’t say I’ve ever had a sitter leave the home in nicer/cleaner condition than when they arrived, but Kelly broke that cycle. We look forward to working with her again!

Kelly is fantastic! She took such good care of our pups & our home & gave us peace of mind over the holidays. She was very thoughtful about every detail - sending us updates daily, adjusting to our older dog’s needs, leaving the home spotless, & surprising us with fresh baked cookies & a hand written note about her week here. We’ll definitely use her services again!

Homeowner in Colorado Springs, Colorado

Kelly has watched several of my pets over the years. My cat is usually very shy, but warmed right up to Kelly and was perfectly content to snooze on her lap the very first time they met. My dog is a big ol' husky who needs to be convinced to do anything, but happily showed off all her tricks to Kelly. I think my pets like Kelly more than they like me! Kelly is a very sweet girl who always goes above and beyond when taking care of my pets. She's great at communicating, and sent a bunch of photos showing how much fun my babies were having! I trusted her to take great care of them. Kelly will absolutely be my first choice anytime I need a petsitter or house sitter! Thank you Kelly!!

We have known Kelly for 20 years and during this time she has watched our cats and home on numerous occasions. She has always proven to be dependable and pays excellent attention to detail. When she would watch our home and pets she would leave detailed notes about the care given. She always went above and beyond to not just care for our cats basic needs but would also spend time hanging out with them and playing with them. We never worried about our home and pets knowing Kelly was caring for them and would highly recommend her as a home and pet sitter.
