We offer solo/group walks, in home pet sitting, cat care, training, medication admin and wedding services. Hi, my name is Kelsie and I am the owner/founder of Buddy Sitting. Since a child, I have shared a deep love for animals of all kinds and knew my passion would eventually become my life work. I started by volunteering my time to a local shelter at the age of 14, then I scored my first job at t

he age of 16 in the kennel, I studied Animal Science at Middlesex Community College and then Biology at the University of Massachussetts and have worked in many reputable small animal hospitals throughout MA as a Veterinary Nurse. While my passion for vet med is strong, I felt a greater calling to my canine friends. Instead of helping to improve an animals physical health at a clinic, I now strive to help animals feel their happiest while still impacting their physical and mental health. As I mentioned, I created Buddy Sitting 8 years ago. The name comes from my past dog, Buddy, who will forever hold a special place in my heart. He was my right hand man, main squeeze and doggy soulmate. The kennel that I worked at was a holding facility for local strays and I had adopted him while I was working there. At that time, I was working in the kennel and had noticed a good portion of animals would not eat their food for many days, fear bite or cower. I originally tailored my business to the animals that did not do well in the social setting by pet sitting in the comfort of their home. My business has since evolved where it is now more dog walk based but I do still offer at home sitting. Buddy Sitting Is an off-road doggy daycare alternative where we allow all dogs to explore the outdoors. After completing a comprehensive intake forum to help better assess your pet, I then curate an experience tailored to them. With decreased cage time and options for socialization our goal is to help reinforce proper etiquette to keep your loved one safe and fulfilled. Adventures vary on a daily basis to provide new sights, smells and stimuli. Therefore, pack adventures include, but are not limited to; trail walks, beach trips, mountain excursions and sleepovers. This service helps the task oriented animal lover complete their to-do’s with peace of mind.

✨Spotlight Sunday✨ goes to Chesney!! Chesney is another Buddy Sitting OG and has been with me since I started my entrepreneurial journey full-time. When we first started together in 2021, Chesney was super shy and not really food motivated; but, over the course of about a year he started to break barriers and blew caution to the wind. Fast forward to today— he will check in with me on trail and pester me for his reward 😆 he expects one after he is freed from the door boundary too 💗🍪😊

☁️ Likes: hanging with his friends, trying to hump (my dog) Sadie 😓🫢 and when I come by to pick him up.

☁️ Dislikes: undoing the Velcro on his reflective vest. However major improvements with that too!!

☁️ Fun Fact: I went to high school with his mum

✨Spotlight Sunday (from 9/8)✨goes to Tedy!! Tedy has been my co-pilot since I started Buddy Sitting full time almost 4 years ago 🤯 During this time he’s helped many friends transition into group, logged numerous walking miles and marked a great deal of locations/ trails 😂

☁️ Likes: cookies, chasing the occasional squirrel, climbing rocks/logs, acting as a patrol officer in group and warming the front seat

☁️ Dislikes: when he gets booted to the back seat 😆

☁️ Fun Fact: he’s a service dog!🎖️

✨Spotlight Sunday (from 9/15)✨ goes to Sammy!! Sammy and I mostly have slumber pawtys but, I will drop in when needed so his owners can enjoy a date night out together. Sammy is a simple guy with really one true love— playing fetch with his squeaky ball. Sometime over the last year/ year and a half Sammy found himself a new housemate & sister, Lizzie (stay tuned for her pupdate) 💗

☁️ Likes: playing with squeaky balls and the beef flavored cookies his parents get.

☁️ Dislikes: sharing the spotlight/ affection with his sister 😆

✨Spotlight Sunday (from 9/22)✨ goes to Charlie & Chloe!! Some names just go together like PB&J, Charlie & Chloe are examples of that 💗 When we first started out together it was just Charlie and I walking the neighborhood. Over time we introduced car rides, other dogs and new locations. So when his sister Chloe came into the picture we kept the same routine but this time around I had Charlie’s help in teaching his new sister the ropes. Now they both enjoy group walks with their buddies 🥲💗

☁️ Likes: car rides, trail walks

☁️ Dislikes: Charlie’s not a huge fan of walking in the rain but will rally. His sister on the other hand could care less ☔️

☁️ Fun Fact: they recently moved but luckily for all of us they stayed in my service area 🥰🏡

✨Spotlight Sunday (from 9/29)✨ goes to Mr. Ben!! Ben works hard at ; so, to break up his work day I take him out for his lunch break Monday-Thursday. During our time together he stretches his legs, potties and socializes with friends he can relate more to 🐾😆💗

☁️ Likes: his lunch break, cookies and walkies

☁️ Dislikes: when he has to go back to work

☁️ Fun Fact: Ben is a cousin!

✨Spotlight Sunday✨ goes to Bonnie & Clyde!! We’ve been adventuring for about 3 years now (??!) and these two definitely live up to their name— stirring up a little mischief (but in the best way 😆💗). They’re another example of a dynamic duo!

☁️ Likes: bird watching, adventures, window time

☁️ Dislikes: when they can’t chase the birds/ squirrels 🪶🐿️

☁️ Fun Facts: these guys have the ultimate routine and have perfected the ‘release’ with name recognition which is something we’ve been working on together 💗

✨ Spotlight Sunday (from 7/14)✨ goes to to Darby. Darby has been apart of the Buddy Sitting family since 2022 (our first walk pictured in slide #5). Since then, we have walked many miles, made many friends and shared two birthdays (7/11).

The last photo is my favorite because while celebrating Darby’s birthday, we’ve made a tradition in celebrating my dog Min & my moms’ birthdays as well. (Darby and my mom are 1 day apart and Min is 5 days before).

Here’s to the birthday girls who I adore deeply 💝🎂🥳

✨Spotlight Sunday (from 7/21)✨ goes to a long time puppy friend, Sonny. Sonny & Buddy (the inspiration behind Buddy Sitting) met in 2014 when Sonny was a whittle bébé. She is now a senior lady who needs insulin twice daily. I recently got to spend time with her while her mum was away and it was a sweet little reunion 💗🥲

✨Spotlight Sunday (from 7/28)✨ goes to the Leonburgers, Harlow & Apollo 💝. These two are routine oriented and quick to remind you of what time it is 😆 Their parents primarily take advantage of the overnight services offered allowing us to keep things as seamless as possible. Apollo & Harlow are large pups, weighing somewhere between 100 and 170lbs!! 😳

Likes: their evening ‘parfait’ and earlier feeding times
Dislikes: walking on noncarpetted areas (Apollo)

Fun fact: Leonburgers were originally bred as working dogs for tasks like carting and water rescue! 🛟

✨Spotlight Sunday✨ goes to Louie! Lou rides Monday to Fri and rallies through all sorts of weather conditions & encounters with me 🤙 Over the last two years he has been a teacher and a student while I’ve applied all that I’ve learned with . We’ve worked on things such as recall, boundaries, self regulation and duration markers to name a few.
Likes: swimming, hiking, attention, cookies and tennis balls 🥾🍪🎾
Dislikes: leaving his primary reinforcer (ball or stick) but knows he will be rewarded in some other way (food or verbal praise)💗
Fun fact: he’s one of eight golden retriever clients that come from . SO many cousins!!

In recent years many towns have changed their ordinances because of dogs not following the beach rules. Please keep the beaches of New Hampshire and Maine dog friendly by following the rules! Here …

Don't forget our furry pals as summer heat increases! They can't tell us when they're feeling overheated, so stay vigilant for signs of heatstroke in dogs! Let's keep them safe and sound for the rest of this season! 🐾🌞🌡️
