about salty fetch
the story behind
the fetch.
I'm Chelsea, founder of Salty Fetch.
After years in corporate america, I decided life was too short to spend it chained to a desk, staring at a screen, and helping build someone else's dream.
So I left.
These days, I'm building a beauty brand from the ground up. And somewhere between chasing that dream and figuring out my next chapter, I realized something: I could spend more time doing what I love most.
Hanging out with dogs. Obviously.
So I started Salty Fetch, a boutique dog-walking and boarding service built around a small crew of people who genuinely prefer dogs to most humans.
We're big on belly rubs, long walks, and treating your dog like family. Because to us, they're not just pets.
They're the whole point.
less corporate. more walks. a lot more wagging tails.

four good humans. a whole lot of dog love.

Beauty brand founder, Salty Fetch founder, and proud golden retriever mom to Henry. She knows practically every dog in Mission Beach and Pacific Beach by name. Their humans? That's another story. She has insider intel on every neighborhood treat dealer and considers stopping to pet a dog a perfectly legitimate reason to be late.
Knows every dog. Still learning the humans.

max.
Physician assistant by profession. Animal lover by nature. He's the guy who will stop everything to rescue an injured hummingbird (true story), make friends with every dog he passes, and happily rearrange his plans for a four-legged companion. Big heart. Gentle hands. Zero chance he's walking past a dog without saying hello.
A friend to anything with four legs. Or two wings.

liz.
Nurse by profession. Dog auntie by choice. Doesn't have a dog of her own (yet), but somehow has a closet full of dog treats and a water bowl permanently stationed on her porch. She's never met a dog she didn't want to befriend, considers beach walks better with four-legged company, and takes her unofficial auntie duties very seriously.
No dog of her own. Unlimited love for yours.

cassandra.
Capacity coach by profession. Dog lover by nature. Proud golden retriever mom who somehow knows more about the neighborhood dog scene than anyone we know. A new dog moves into the neighborhood? She's probably already following them on Instagram. Never turns down quality time with a pup, and believes a good walk can fix just about anything.
Her dog network is bigger than yours.
more dogs. always.
Our favorite kind of company has four paws. We keep Salty Fetch small and personal so every pup gets the attention they deserve.
