Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet I care for. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and routines. I pay close attention to pets’ behavior and comfort to ensure they feel safe and happy. Cleanliness, supervision, and respect for your home and your pet’s wellbeing are always my top priorities.

Information Shadai V. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, routines, or behaviors that I should be aware of so I can provide the best care possible. I’m comfortable with most breeds and personalities, especially active dogs who enjoy walks, playtime, and lots of attention.

A typical day

A typical day with me includes plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. I make sure dogs get regular potty breaks, walks, and lots of affection. Since I have a Border Collie of my own who loves going on walks, I’m very used to keeping dogs active and engaged while also making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

Pet care experience

Although I am newer to professional pet sitting, I have always loved animals and enjoy spending time caring for them. I’m attentive, patient, and committed to making sure pets feel comfortable and safe. I’m happy to follow any routines or instructions owners provide, whether that includes walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or giving extra attention to help pets feel at ease while their owners are away. I currently live in West Des Moines! But I’m usually running errands literally everywhere so I am super flexible! Ankeny, Des Moines, Pleasant Hill, Altoona, you name it!

I highly recommend Shadai! I’m a realtor and my schedule can get extremely busy and unpredictable, but she is always incredibly flexible and accommodating, even when I reach out the same day. It gives me peace of mind knowing my dad’s dog is in such good hands. She’s reliable, caring, and always willing to help when I need it most. I recommend her 100%.
