ICU Veterinary Technician

Pet care experience

I’m Shelby and I love dogs(all animals really.) I’ve been working with animals for well over a decade now and have three amazing pups of my own, Dominic, Lyric, and Remmi. The way dogs love humans is one of the most special and beautiful things on earth. Their unconditional personalities and fun loving spirits make them such a joy to work with and be around. I am a pet sitter because I enjoy spending time with dogs and want to reciprocate all of the unconditional love shown to me by them. I have experience working in animal hospitals, pet stores, shelters, and other animal-oriented businesses or organizations. I have experience caring for cats, birds, reptiles, and small animals. They all have such unique and fun personalities that I love to learn more about. I would be thrilled to work with animals from any of these different categories! In addition to my experience caring for multiple kinds of animals, I am constantly doing rescue and foster work. As a dog owner myself, I know how hard it is to be away from your baby. I will be accessible as much as you'd like me to be. I will be sending photos and text updates so you know how much fun and happiness your pup is experiencing with me! I also have a very flexible schedule so I am able to accommodate most requests! I pride myself on being organized and timely. When I’m not pet sitting, I love to go for long walks, hikes, and to pet friendly restaurants and venues. I try to go for a walk at least once a day, a hike once a week, and to pet friendly places as much as I possibly can! Your pup is welcome to join me on my adventures.

Shelby is hands down, outstanding. Very professional and respectful. She cared for our pets like her own and we were so happy with her attention to detail when it came to walking the dogs, keeping their meal times and portions correct, and also making sure all their medications were given at the right time. Our pets love her and she will always be our choice in the future because we know she truly is a pet lover and will always take special care of our furry babies! - Justin and Libby

Shelby is literally the best. She puts people and pets first in an industry that seems loaded with greedy people who just seem to be in it solely for the money and seem like they cater to the rich and don't care about the everyday person where Shelby seems much more focused on helping people than any of the others in the area, I'm super thankful she was willing to work with me until I get my first paycheck from my new job. I almost gave up on trying to find someone I could afford before I begin getting paid so I was super lucky to find her. She's dependable, reliable, and great with pets. Highly recommended!

Safety, trust & environment

When I stay in a clients home to care for their pet, I always schedule a meet and greet first. I do this because I like the client to show me their pets routine. I find that its a better experience for the pet, if their routine is minimally changed. I will spend my days at your home and evenings, as if I lived there. Giving your pet lots of attention and love throughout the day.

Information Shelby B. would like to know about your pet

Before a stay, I like to learn a bit more about you and your pup! I will do this during our Meet and Greet. This allows me to get all the information I can about your dog and their care. I don’t have any breed restrictions. It is very important to me to keep your dogs routine the same.

A typical day

On a stay with me, we’ll have fun! I will always revert to whatever you, the owner prefers, as well as the normal and comfortable activities your dog likes! I love staying active and your dog will enjoy walks around the neighborhood, or at the beach! We’ll start our days bright and early for breakfast and a walk, plus time to relax and take a nap. In the afternoon, another walk is in store and then we’ll share some play and cuddle time. In the evening, I love to relax, watch some TV, and go for a night walk! Whatever your pup needs, I’ll be happy to provide.
