Pet care experience

Reliable & Caring Animal Lover

I have been surrounded by animals my whole life. We have always had dogs and cats while I was growing up, each one I loved dearly. My sister and I also had cockatiels and a hamster! I have pet sat for numerous friends and family, ranging from cats and dogs, to chickens and horses! I have no problem with giving meds if your pet needs as well! Anything your pet needs, I will do my best to provide. I currently reside with my partner, our two cats, and one dog, in Chicagoland area. I am currently going to school online, so I can work around this every day. I will have plenty of time to spend with and take care of your furry loved ones! I am very accommodating to anything your pet needs, especially in the comfort of his or her own home. That way, your loved one will feel more secure and feel less anxious during your outing!

Shelbie did it again! Another wonderful weekend for our dogs. She gives them so much love and attention while we’re away, it’s like a vacation for them too.

Shelbie went above and beyond again. We went from one low maintenance pup during her last visit to two high maintenance ones this time. She handled that and more with grace. You know you have found the right sitter when you feel they take better care of your pups than you do :) Thanks, Shelbie! The girls can't wait until our next trip.

Shelbie was great! The dogs loved her and she took lots of pictures and sent daily updates. I would recommend her and use her again.
