Loving, Energetic & Reliable!!

Pet care experience

Thanks for taking the time to review my profile. I've had a true love for animals since as far back as I can remember & having that connection with furry family members has been a huge part of my life. As a pet owner myself I realize how very important it is to feel complete confidence that your fur babies are being cared for by someone you can trust to make sure they are being exercised, loved on & cared for, just as you would yourself. I have owned & worked with small breed dogs, as well as the large & lovable variety, and fabulous felines. I have a flexible schedule and am happy to care for dogs in my home or come to them.

Shelagh took great care of our little old gal and was great at coordinating drop off and pick up, especially considering it was over Thanksgiving when there's a lot going on. Her place is clean and snuggly for pups looking to relax and take it easy. I'm happy we chose her.

Shelagh did an excellent job caring for our elderly dog and left the house nice and clean. Looking forward to using her again.

Shelagh was very kind and helped us to travel with peace of mind after needing a last-minute booking for house sitting. She gave us updates daily and the place looks great/pups we're happy ? Thank you!

Shelagh was great to work with. She was communicative and sent photos of my pup throughout her stay. It was easy and convenient.

Information Shelagh R. would like to know about your pet

I am experienced with a wide variety dog of behaviors and dogs of all ages and have learned so much from my time caring for dogs ,with different personalities and needs. My calm and loving nature is a great fit for pups with separation anxiety issues. I always like to find out what the best way is to keep your pup happy and what types of behaviors they have, their typical routine, anything that may trigger them, amount of exercises needed, as well as how they alert for potty breaks, food issues etc.

A typical day

I live in a great neighborhood on the west side of town close to multiple dog parks and lots of walking trails. I will taylor our adventures according to your pets likes and age. We'll enjoy romps at the dog park, leisurely strolls or adventurous hikes as well snuggles and belly rubs. I love walking down at the Old Mill, Hillside off leash dog park (if suitable for the dog), Compass Park dog park & walking paths, Pine Nursery etc. I also enjoy bringing dogs with me to outdoor dining establishment if allowed and on my daily errands. Love throwing the Chuck-It balls and working on light training if the owner desires.

I'm currently attending classes part time Tuesday-Friday from 8:30am-1:30pm. I am off Saturday-Monday. I get pups out in the morning before I leave for school and then like to head out after class for a walk or to the to the dog parks and then out again in the evening.
