Pet care experience
My family has had animals of all sizes since I was born - I've been feeding and caring for horses, parrots, dogs, cats, and fish since I could walk, and now I care for two cats of my own. I am familiar and comfortable with a wide variety of species. I've looked after cats, ferrets, parrots, Mastiffs, Great Dane mixes, German Pointers, Shiba Inus, Shelties, Chihuahuas, and all manner of mutts! Additionally, I’m a photographer, and if you would like high quality images of your pets, I’m happy to do that with them once they get to know me!
Reviews
My old girl was well taken care of, great to have confidence when you're traveling! Great communication the whole time.
The updates were right on time and made it easy to relax knowing our animals were taken care of.
Shelby B. will treat your pets as if they are her own. She is prompt and dependable. She can handle all types of pets too!
Shelby has been taking care of our pets for over 15 years! We have had 4 dogs at once along with a macaw, and cats. Shelby is trustworthy,reliable and is so loving with the animals as if they are family. I feel extremely comfortable leaving knowing they are in Shelby’s care.

Safety, trust & environment
I can drop in and play with your pet for a half hour when needed! Feeding, brushing, playing are all part of giving animals the attention they deserve, and I am happy to do that while visiting with them. In my own home, my cats’ favorite thing is to cuddle and get scritches. I love having new animals warm up to me and figuring out their favorites! It feels amazing when they start to trust you.
Information Shelby B. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if your pet has any issues with other animals or people, if they’re allergic to anything, if they’re prone to eating or chewing on odd things, and if you’re working on any specific training I need to reinforce. I would also like to know their favorite treats and toys, and any routines that make them comfortable.
A typical day
I enjoy walking neighborhoods and parks. I want to be able to give your dog a familiar route, especially while I may be an unfamiliar person to them! I also like to practice training and playing with a frisbee/ball in a yard or dog park.
