Pet care experience

Every furry friend’s bff 🐾

Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always had a passion & love for animals - I’d volunteer to take the neighborhood dogs on a walk, clean up after them, groom them and watch them… this passion and love hasn’t gone away, but has only grown! This passion and love has grown so much that I’ve volunteered several times at local Kane county animals shelters! I have experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, needs, energy levels… from a couch potato Irish Wolfhound mix rescue to a energetic purebred Chihuahua. I even have experience with cats and kittens! If by request, I can work on commands, walking, agility, etc. … I’ve got experience with it all! Friends and family would describe me as dependable, punctual, honest, energetic, positive & trustworthy to name a few! I’m very adaptable and flexible, too, so please just reach out with any concerns and we can work something out together. Your furry baby/babies are the main concern! Whatever you need for your sweet baby/babies, I’m here to help! Let me show you my love and experience with animals by booking a walk, drop in or house sit with me today! I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I’m available Tuesdays, Fridays, & Weekends. Offer up a time and service, and I’ll work my schedule around that! I will follow all rules and routines, as usual when at the home. As for walks, I’ll make sure to keep a close, attentive eye on your sweet pup(s)! For drop ins and house sitting, I will be sure to leave your home and baby/babies in the same exact condition, if not even better! *pricing subject to change based on distance, length, amount of dogs, and requirements*

Selena is truly someone you want to watch your pets when away. When we leave we know our pets are being welled cared for as well as the house! Selena is very responsive and tries to work around schedules! So do not hesitate and go take that trip without worrying if your pets are ok.

My wife and I like to take trips here and there, and we’ve always relied on our kids to watch the dogs while we’re away. We started to feel like it was becoming a burden for them, so we decided to look for a professional sitter instead. We were both understandably nervous about having someone come into our home to care for our dogs, but Selena quickly put us at ease. Selena was our first choice, and we are so glad we were able to book with her. She was quick to respond, extremely professional, and took the time to come over beforehand to meet the dogs and learn their routine. Right away, my wife and I were impressed with her experience, knowledge, and qualifications. While we were away for a long weekend, Selena was absolutely amazing. She sent us plenty of pictures, spent quality time playing with the dogs, and cared for them exactly as we would ourselves. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such great hands. I highly recommend Selena and have already rebooked with her for future trips.

Selena is amazing! She loved on our 115 pound puppy so well! She went above and beyond, showing her knowledge, experience, and confidence in caring for animals. I look forward to having her again!

House Sitting • Aug 19, 2022

Selena was available for a same day appointment to take care of my new pop when I had a work meeting I had to go to. She was very knowledgeable, very sweet and helpful. She was confident. She made friends with my dogs quickly, even when my Chihuahua was a little unfriendly about being picked up. She picked her up anyways about five seconds and was not afraid of her. I would be happy To hire Selena again and I recommend her.

After my experience with Selena, I will be sure to use her again! Selena is so polite and has personality for days. She genuinely loves dogs and thoroughly enjoys spending time with all four legged friends! She was actually recommended to me by a friend who has a couple cats. I highly recommend her services to all who want their furry companion to enjoy a good walk and get a little photo shoot along the way!
