Discover how it all began.
Meet Carly
Hi! I’m Carly Kieffer, the owner of Pet Sitting by Carly. My journey with animals started long before this business — I spent over seven years working at a local animal hospital, where I gained hands-on experience with pets of all kinds. My love for animals runs deep, and I’m passionate about providing thoughtful, reliable care for every pet I meet.
I graduated from Bowling Green State University with a degree in Communication, and in 2019, I combined my love for animals and people to create this business. Since then, I’ve been providing personalized pet care to families in our community — always treating pets like they’re my own.
Whether I’m caring for a playful pup, a shy cat, or a horse who loves a routine, I take pride in offering dependable service and building trust with both pets and their people.
At the heart of everything I do is my own dog, Kelso. He’s not just my best friend — he’s my inspiration. The love, joy, and companionship Kelso gives me every day is the same energy I bring into the homes of every pet I care for. I treat each animal with the same compassion and respect I give him, because I know just how much our pets mean to us.
Our Mission
At Pet Sitting by Carly, we believe that every pet deserves compassionate, reliable, and personalized care. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your animals in someone else’s hands — that’s why I’ve built this business with one simple goal: to make your time away as comfortable and positive as possible, for both you and your pet.
We care for dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, pocket pets, and everything in between — always with the same level of love and attention they’d get from you. And because caring for pets also means caring for their environment, we offer pet waste removal services to help keep your yard clean, safe, and enjoyable for the whole family.
Whether it’s a vacation drop-in or weekly help at home, I’m here to give your pets the care they need — and the peace of mind you deserve.
