Meet the breeder

I'm Kelsey Y., the breeder behind Hilltop Doodles KY LLC located in Somerset, KY. We are a family oriented program that focuses on health, temperament and quality dogs and puppies. We want to do our part to produce wonderful, healthy dogs that can bring other people joy as well, and we strive to provide each of our puppies with loving homes where they can live happy lives.

Q. & A. with Kelsey

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I got into breeding in 2019 whenever I fell in love with my first poodle. Piper was the very start of my breeding journey and since then she has been retired and lives out her days being spoiled beyond belief by my family. I do thank the Lord for leading me on this journey. It's truly amazing and spectacular to bring living, breathing animals into the world and watch the first moments with them.
  • What makes your program special?

    I offer quality puppies that come from a clean and loving environment. My puppies are raised indoors and are spoiled from the moment they are born. I thrive on knowing my animals are well taken care of and healthy. I offer meet and greats early on and I let people visit their puppy weekly if they prefer. I keep my communication line with buyers open 24/7. I will answer questions an send pictures.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our Poodle puppies are miniature size. Goldendoodle puppies include miniature and standard sizes. Cavapoo puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our Poodle puppies include sable, apricot, black, cream, red, silver, parti, phantom, and brindle. Goldendoodle puppies include cream, red, merle, and parti. Cavapoo puppies are red. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and guardian homes.

    I had the best experience working with Kelsey! She is so responsive, answered all my questions patiently, and sent LOADS of pictures weekly of my puppy. She even helped arrange transportation for pick up! My puppy Chai was so well socialised when I got her! Her personality is everything. She is healthy, playful and very loving, and the perfect little babygirl. If I were to get another baby, it would have to be from Kelsey!

    This was an amazing first experience! Kelsey is extremely responsive, going above and beyond to ensure the perfect fit for my family and her pups. Our sweet Millie is pure perfection! If I ever purchase again, it will be through Kelsey. 10/10 recommend!

    From the moment I reached out, Kelsey was incredibly responsive and helpful. I could quickly tell she cares so much for her dogs and for the work she does as a breeder. She happily answered any of our questions and kept me updated on our pup until we got her. Our little cockapoo is precious and affectionate and beautiful. We are so pleased with everything and would highly recommend working with Kelsey!

    Kelsey was great to work with. We got two dogs from her a male we named Coach(Brown and white) and a female we named Dior(black and white). When she knew we were getting them both she crated them together and they love each other and eat out of the same bowl. When we told her their names she started using their new names and I think they learned them faster because of this. About every week or so she would send update photos or videos so we could see how big they were getting. When we went to pick them up I was surprised how organized she was with their basket, papers, and how clean the puppies were. The puppies have great temperaments and love everyone we have them meet, which leads me to believe she socialized them well. We had to drive about 7 hours to get them and I would do it again in a heart beat because Kelsey was attentive, professional and the puppies are exactly what we wanted. They are smart dogs. The first time we worked with them on the air command they learned it within a few tries. Just all around great experience.
