I have a fenced yard and two pets of my own to keep yours company! Nothing but high vibes and cuddles over here! All pets eat twice a day unless they have a routine that you would like for me to follow.

Information Shelbi R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I can account for. This will help me take good care of them! Additionally, please, please, PLEASE set an accurate drop off/ pick up time! Late pickups without 24hr notice are subject to late fees.

A typical day

My pets are socialized, non aggressive, and loving! I have an enclosed backyard they can run around in, as well as toys to play with. In addition there’s multiple parks by my house for long walks and good sniffs!
