Chelsea joined the 9 to 5 Pets team with a strong foundation in both hospitality and hands-on pet care. She is the niece of our longtime client, Kathleen Woods, and has played an active role in caring for Kathleen and their three beloved pets — Hank (Border Collie), Ginger (Terrier), and Auggie (cat). Her bond with them runs deep, and her decision to relocate back to Florida from San Diego speaks volumes about her loyalty and heart for both family and animals.

With 16 years of experience in high-end hospitality — including service at the Ritz, Sawgrass Marriott, and Hilton Bayfront — Chelsea brings exceptional customer service, professionalism, and attention to detail to every client interaction. She understands the importance of communication, trust, and delivering a high-touch experience.

Chelsea also has extensive private pet sitting experience in both California and Nocatee. She is comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments and is experienced with overnight pet care services. Her references consistently highlight her reliability, strong communication, attentiveness, and calm presence during unexpected situations — including handling a furnace leak and even remaining steady during a tornado while caring for pets out of state.

Known for her positive attitude, resilience, patience, and problem-solving skills, Chelsea excels at staying calm in stressful situations and emergencies. She is warm, personable, professional, and deeply committed to providing attentive, loving care.

We are excited to welcome Chelsea to the 9 to 5 Pets family and know she will provide exceptional service to both our clients and their pets.
