Your furbaby's new best friend!

Pet care experience

My name is Shay, and my passion is providing fun, love, enrichment, and structure for your pets! I have been a pet parent to dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, small animals, and many more critters, and have experience ranging from the domestic, farm, and even zoo animals! My animal care journey started as I entered high school and started volunteering at the zoo during the summers, as well as helping out at my local veterinarian's office. As an adult I went from working in retail pet supplies, then became a dog and cat groomer, and then an adoption and behavioral counselor for a non-profit shelter. As a pet care provider, my goal is to care for your pets the way you would and provide them with the same structure, routines, and love they are used to receiving. I am able to maintain any training and commands you have established with your animals and specialize in working with "out of the box" behavioral needs. Services I am able to provide are check-ins, walks, training sessions, and even hiking! I am trained to provide both oral and syringe medications, and senior animal care, and have a world of experience with puppies and rescue animals. I am conveniently located in Grand Junction and can provide for customers in the surrounding areas (Palisade, Fruita, Redlands, and more). Contact me if you're looking for a best friend for your baby, and someone you can trust to keep them healthy and happy!

Shay is a fantastic person and sitter. We were never left in the dark about how our pets were doing and, quite honestly, our boys were disappointed when we came home because we weren't Shay :D We're already figuring out our schedule for Shay to watch our boys the next time we're out of town.

I have a 14 year old pup, he's an old fella and is very specific with his routine. Shay has been so accommodating to him and us alike. She's the only sitter I trust with my little guy! Not to mention my mother-in-law has a puppy, two rabbits and a duck that Shay has gone above and beyond for as well! She's the best!

My style of pet care is to match what you provide regularly for your animals. Animals are my passion and I make it a point to treat everyone's animals as I would treat my own! Whatever your and your pet's needs and expectations are I am here to meet those expectations and be their best friend and guardian when you are unable to!

Information Shay N. would like to know about your pet

I am open to any size, breed, or temperament! Let me know of any behavioral or health concerns your pet has, I can work with almost anything!

A typical day

I am available for walks, hikes, swimming, playtime, and any type of enrichment your pet requires. I am familiar with local trails, parks, and more. I can take your dog for walks in your neighborhood, at a local park, or at one of our many close-by hiking trails. Have a stay home pet? Your backyard will work just fine too! I have a lot of experience maintaining training and behavioral plans for both dogs and cats, as well as working with disabled, special needs, and senior animals!
