Experienced pet sitter and groomer

Pet care experience

***UPDATE: Open during COVID-19 *** Hey! Just moved back to the area with plenty of room to watch pets. I am the proud owner of a 5 acre completely fenced in farmette, so lots of room for dogs to run or experience being off leash. We have one French Bulldog named Batman who is a real ham. Batman loves animals and people. I have been around animals all of my life including horses. I was a Division I athlete and coach for an equestrian team in Delaware for the last 10 years. I also have dog grooming experience if needed. Just looking to help out anyone in need as I know what it’s like to not have a pet sitter especially last minute. Please keep me in mind for all of your pet sitting needs. Willing to travel to you or board at our house. I do work from home. Non-smoking home. *Usually can take Last Minute clients* Requirements from pet owners: -Current vaccination record (Rabies, Bordetella, Kennel cough, Lepto and Influenza are mandatory. Heart worm if applicable) -Pet must be up to date on flea/tick protection -Provide pet’s temperament (with people and dogs) -Provide pet’s information on house training

Shelby was great and I will use her for future sitter needs! Leila was happy and had a blast. I can’t thank her enough for taking such good care of my girl!

Shelby is amazing, trustworthy, reliable and understanding! My husband and dog both have separation anxiety so leaving the dog anywhere is a challenge. Shelby takes great care of our dog Bruce and keeps in touch with pictures that ease my husband’s anxiety. Bruce came home in better condition that we left him in thanks to her loving care for our senior dog.

My husband and I had not had more than 3 days away in over a year, so we were thrilled to find Shelby and her wonderful farm! Our boys stayed with her for a week and returned in good health and good spirits. Winston takes medicine for a chronic condition twice a day, in addition to being on antibiotics for the first half of the visit, and Shelby had no issues taking care of that. We look forward to another vacation and would leave the boys with her without hesitation!

I like to know the following: Is he/she an escape artist or been know to escape? Can the dog get on furniture? (I do allow) Is the dog crate trained? (Not needed at my home only if owner requests) Any allergies? Any special medications or conditions?

A typical day

I love letting any/all dogs outside to run around the grass fields at the farm, it’s like a big dog park for them. They really love it!
