Highlights
Pet care experience
Professional and avid animal lover!
I am comfortable with a wide variety of pets including cats, dogs, and most exotics. I was an animal science major in undergrad and also volunteered as a wildlife rehabilitation tech during that time so I am comfortable with medication administration. After undergrad, I took two years off from school to work as a zookeeper with wolves, otters, snakes, and amphibians. I returned to school at CSU where I recently received my master’s in biomedical science. I am currently volunteering with another wildlife rehabilitation clinic. I have two senior cats and a leopard gecko of my own and ride horses.
Cat care experience
Shelby also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I have two senior cats of my own so I would not be able to care for pets in my home but I am happy to drive to take care of your pets. As someone who works with animals both professionally and as a hobby, I take my animal care very seriously and will provide your pets with the best care I possibly can.
Ratings and reviews
Shelby took great care of our two pups and turtle while we were away for the weekend! She was very responsive and took great photos as well ☺️
So glad to have found Shelby! She does a great job with my little pooch and gives excellent feedback, including pics.
Shelby was awesome! My poor baby was just a few days after a surgery and Shelby did amazing caring for him, giving him his medications, and keeping me updated!
Shelby has dropped in twice to help with my little Yorkie. I recommend her highly!
Shelby is wonderful! My little Yorkie took to her immediately. She did an hour drop-by visit to exercise and play with him while I was out for the evening. When I got home, he was much more relaxed than usual, no excess energy from missing his evening routine. Would definitely have Shelby over again!
Shelby loves all animals and cares for all of them like they’re her own. She is very attuned to their needs and loves to give them exactly what they want and need, whether it’s really good scritches, the meds they need, or deserved treats. Shelby bonds with every animal she meets and is a great caregiver for dogs, cats, and exotic pets alike.
