STACIA R.

Position: Owner and Pet Sitter

Stacia is a Tri-Cities native, born in Kennewick. As a child she had adventures in many western states living in Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Utah, and New Mexico. Her family settled in Pasco and she graduated from Pasco High. She and her husband, Kelly, met when she asked him to dance at a church social. They lived in Arizona for 4 years and moved to the Tri-Cities in 2001 to be closer to family.

Stacia’s love of pets is evident in the many pets her family had including several dogs, cats, birds, and fish. Some of her favorites were Blondie, a cocker spaniel; Oreo, a black and white cat; Pumpkin, a lab mix; and Goldie, a golden lab. She and Kelly have had several guinea pigs, fish, and currently are pet parents to an adorable poodle mix named Lucy.

Stacia started pet sitting in 2005 as a backup sitter for Happy Tails Pet Sitting, which was owned by her mother. In 2006, Stacia took ownership of Happy Tails and has been a full time sitter ever since. Stacia’s favorite part of the job is being able to love on all different types of animals with different personalities and cute little quirks.

KELLY R.

Position: Owner and Pet Sitter

Kelly is a Washington native and grew up in the Seattle area. He moved twice before he graduated: from one bedroom to the other and then back again. After graduation, Kelly attended college and met Stacia while in Utah.

Kelly had two dogs as a child, Wags and Double Trouble AKA Dubs. He also had two cats, Morris (who never met a lap he didn’t own) and Smokey, who was a bit more selective in his affection.

Kelly’s favorite part of the job is being able to play with lots of dogs and giving lots of love to cats.

ABBEY C.

Position: Pet Sitter

Abbey is new to the Tri-Cities, but a long time animal lover.    She relocated to the area from Washington, DC in the summer of 2011, along with her husband and two dogs. Leaving the big city was an easy decision, once she saw the beautiful climate and the big back yard for her two dogs!

In her spare time, Abbey loves to cook, play in the backyard with her two pups, Truman an energetic Pit Bull mix and Winston an adorable English Bulldog and she is always looking for a new book to read.

Abbey enjoys getting know the personalities of dogs and cats and giving them lots of love. Walks, playtime and cuddle time are the best!
