Testimonials
“Thanks for visiting Scottie & Emma. When I got in on Saturday night, the pupps had nothing but great things to say about you and your dogs. Scottie wouldn’t stop talking about Rusty…I think puppy love is in the air. Thanks again Chelsea, and I’ll definitely give you a call next time I’m away.”
– Marisa Henriques Figueira
About the Trainer
Chelsea Varnado operates “Pawlin’ Around with Chelsea,” a business driven by her deep passion for animals. She understands the challenges pet owners face when separated from their beloved companions and aims to ensure that time apart is enjoyable for both pets and people.
Her services include pet sitting, which can be provided either at the client’s home or at her own residence. In both scenarios, she guarantees ample outdoor walking time, playtime, and personalized attention for the pets. For in-home pet sitting, she also offers additional conveniences like bringing in mail, newspapers, and trashcans.
Chelsea also provides dog walking services for owners who are at work and organizes trips to the dog park for high-energy dogs. She emphasizes that dog park visits are beneficial not only for exercise but also for crucial socialization. Additionally, she offers basic behavioral training for dogs.
