18. Shelby S.
About: Hi! My name is Shelby. I am a dog owner and a recent graduate with a Bachelor degree in Animal Science on the path of becoming a veterinarian. I am looking to take care of pets of any size. I have experience from interning at a local vet clinic over the summer, so I’m confident in my pet handling skills. With that being said, getting to meet your fabulous pet would be a great pleasure for me not only because I love animals but because it moves me forward in what I strive to become, which is, an understanding and caring doctor of veterinary medicine! I have just recently graduated college in school so I want to do the most with my time when it comes to animals. I make sure to update my calendar each time I am going away weeks prior to the date. This is a priority of mine. My availability is pretty flexible since I am working a part time job as a veterinarian assistant for only 2 days out the week, Tuesdays 9AM-6PM and Saturdays 12PM-11PM. I have a fur baby of my own so I know how important it is to make sure whoever takes care of your pet is doing their very best and nothing less of that. I am an active listener so whatever you want me to do it will be done to a tee. Crating, giving medicine, enrichment activities, etc. are all things within my capabilities and even if something isn’t I will be sure to let you know. I have house sit before so updates on anything will always be given and I will leave your home just as it was. Your home and pet is like another part of you so I would never treat it as less than that.


19. Katherine C.
“Katherine is super kind and caring—someone you can truly trust with your pets. She’s always been so loving with her own Yorkie, Nina, and her sister’s young golden retriever. She’s great with all kinds of dogs, big or small. It’s clear how much she loves animals, and any pet would be lucky to have her. I highly recommend her!”


20. Brooke H.

“Brooke was so sweet with our pup! She sent regular updates with pictures, and I could tell our dog was happy with her!”
