Pet care experience
I’m Shelby and I really can't pick one thing I love most about dogs! Snuggling and play time are definitely two of my favorite doggie activities, but most of all, I love having a genuine connection with a dog. Every pup has their own unique personality and it’s so special getting to know what they love, dislike, and how they play and interact. Knowing they trust me feels great. If I can make them not even notice their parents is gone, I'm happy! I always love the feeling of getting to make a pup’s life a bit more happy, and getting to work with dogs has been a great experience. I have tremendous knowledge beyond just owning a dog. I grew up with dogs and bred bulldogs for over 10 years. I also have a sweet pup of my own, Ruckus, who is a nine month old English Bulldog. I currently work with a local no kill animal shelter fostering cats and dogs when needed. I have also owned and cared for dogs of different sizes, breeds, and personalities so I feel comfortable handling all dogs - even those with disabilities or ones that require medication. Because of that, I don't have any policies, since every pup would be handled case by case. I’ll make sure to design every stay around their needs and wants! I also like to make sure that my human clients feel completely taken care of as well. I’ll always send lots of updates to you so you can feel at ease that you baby is in good hands and always ask about your individual needs or wants. I’m a stickler for following schedules, so I’m always happy to accommodate your pup’s specific schedule and what you have in mind.
Reviews
The telltale signs of a good person will come from the way your dog acts around them. My very timid, extremely nervous silky terrier loved Shelby immediately. She is definitely an animal lover. Zoey now can smell her through the door and I can barely get it open before she makes it out into Shelby's loving arms. Shelby loves Zoey as her own. I was always relieved that Zoey could stay with her (her home or mine) when I had to leave town. I don't hesitate at all to recommend her.
Shelbie is an awesome pet sitter! I have a German Shepherd, a cat and 2 birds! Everyone loves her!! She has very special bond with animals! I highly recommend Shelbie! ??

Information Shelby C. would like to know about your pet
Some things I like to learn ahead of time: - Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? - What’s your preferred method of communication? - Does your fur baby have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? - Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? - What does your dog do well around? What does your dog try to avoid? - What’s the best way to spoil your pup?
A typical day
Although I’m always open to following my client's’ schedules, there are a few things I like to do. I typically like to wake up in the morning to a good game of fetch before heading out to the dog park. That way, we can set the tone of the day on a good note before it gets too hot out. If it’s the weekend, I love to go hiking, and there’s nothing better than having a canine co-pilot along for the ride! I also like researching local walking paths, so I’m always open to explore some new areas a bit. After dinner, we’ll go for our last walk of the day before watching TV until we fall asleep.
