Pet care experience

Loving Pet Sitter, Works from home

I am new to Rover & this area, however I am not new to this field! I have been in the veterinary field since I was 14 years old. I started with kennels and caring for the animals and then moved up to veterinary technician. I am still currently employed as a virtual technician/receptionist. I have experience with all animals large and small! I have lots of references I would love to share with you! If there are any special requests please let me know I will try and be flexible. I am also open to negotiations! I look forward to getting to know your fur babies and this community! 🤍

Shelby did a great job with taking care of my furr babies while on vacation. Both are elderly, and really appreciate her patience with their slow moving, or slow peeing plus cleaning up any accidents they had in house since can not hold like used too when younger. Would definitely rebook with her.

This is the second time we’ve used Shelby for our 2 dogs. She is excellent! Takes great care of our pups, is prompt, friendly and the dogs love her. I’m so glad we found her!

Shelby did a great job with all our critters while we traveled. She is incredibly thoughtful and kind and communicates very quickly. We will definitely be using her again.

Shelby is one of the most kindest caregivers I have ever met. She is super communicative and always eases my mind when I worry. I will most definitely book with her again if I ever need. She is compassionate and kind for all furry friends. Shelby will always be my first pick!! She should be yours too. Thank you from the dearest of my heart for taking such sweet care of my minmin.
