Your pet’s new BFF <3

Pet care experience

Hey, I'm Shay! I've been an animal lover since I was born. I've never grown up without a dog and/or cat in the house! I'm a Nursing major in the Animal Lovers Club at my college (H2P!) and a reliable caregiver for humans and pets alike. I currently work at the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh. You can trust me to take care of your pet and give them lots of walks and snuggles as I'm missing my own dogs, Cleo, Nala, and Ollie, while I'm away for school. I am also a certified dog handler for Animal Friends as a volunteer!

I can't give Shay enough stars in rating how well she did in taking care of my four-legged family member, Murray, an energetic, loving & sometimes anxious 3-year-old English Springer Spaniel. It was clear from the first moment Shay met Murray at a 'meet & greet' that they bonded. During the four days/overnights that Shay watched over him, she treated him just like her family's doggie: from cuddles to exercise to simply being attentive to Murray's routine, needs & anxiety. I know she did a wonderful job because of her many pics; her frequent text updates; and, most of all, how relaxed & content Murray was at the end of Shay's time with him. Shay has every attribute anyone could want in a pet sitter, including trustworthiness. Murray would also like to add, "I miss you, Shay!"

Thanks again, Shay! Especially for your patience with a teething puppy! We are working on it so hopefully by next time she will be a bit better.

Shay loves dogs. She has trained two of my dogs with basic commands, and always showers them with love, attention, and lots of good belly rubs. She also has the patience to just sit with an older dog as well as ease the anxiety of thunderstorms for another. Her joy at being around dogs is palpable, so you know that the dogs sense it too. Shay is mature, friendly, and respectful. I highly recommend her to any pet owner.
