Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of dogs of all sizes my whole life, I am comfortable around all breeds and would love to take care of anyone’s pet for a while! I’ve been taking care of my own pets for years so I know how much they need us. I have experience walking, feeding, and bathing pets of all sizes. I have also had to give my own pets medications, like pills and ear drops so I am comfortable with that, as well as bottle feeding pets. I’m playful for younger dogs and patient with older dogs. I also have experience with puppies. I know how often they must go out and how carefully they must be watched. I also know how to take care of cats!

Shayla went above and beyond while caring for our dog Fozzie, while we were away. She treated him like he was her pet, and even made him “special” meals when he did not want to eat his kibble. Shayla also kept us updated on how Fozzie was doing during our time away. 10 out of 10 I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dog while they are away.

Shayla is a absolute gem of a person and you will be fortunate to have her care for your fur babies. One of the nicest and most genuine people I’ve ever met. Her passion for animals is unmatched. I can attest to the love and devotion she pours on her own dogs, they are some of the best trained and happiest dogs I’ve ever seen. To my knowledge shayla has been involved with domestic animals since a very young age so she has a wealth of experience few others will have. I have had shayla watch my pets while I’ve been out of town and could not be more happy and impressed with the care they received. Rest assured shayla will provide you babies with the absolute best care possible while you are away. Don’t be surprised if they don’t want her to leave once you return!

I love taking dogs on walks I usually take my own for both long and shot ones. Playing with all types toys, exploring new areas and going to dog parks! My favorite thing to do is find new hiking trails with pups
