Your pup's new running pal!
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Shelby and I'm looking for new furry friends! I have grown up with dogs in my home since childhood, and am comfortable around dogs of any size or breed. Living in an apartment has given me severe dog deprivation-- I miss the clacking of paws greeting me at the door after work! To make up for my inability to own a pet at this time, I volunteer at an animal shelter regularly, where I have been trained in dog handling and provide walks and 3 mile runs for the shelter dogs. I understand how important it is for energetic dogs to get the exercise they need, both for their physical and mental health. I am currently training for a half marathon, so I am also willing to take your dog for longer runs if needed! I also regularly dog sit for a family in my area when they are away for weekend trips. I will typically stay in the home, let the dog out as needed, provide her with her medication and meals as scheduled, and just give her the company she needs while her owners are away. I'm happy to help in any way I can!
Reviews
Shelby was great! Responsible, on time, and detail oriented! I recommend her!
Shelby was excellent. She kept in frequent touch with us to give us updates and confirm care instructions. Darwin often has accidents and we came home to no accidents, which is a great indicator that Shelby was letting him out as much as he needed (this is something we frequently struggle with with sitters!). She also gave our cats medications and even washed our sheets for us when she left. I found her to be timely, attentive, and responsible. We would highly recommend her.
Shelby is a great dog caregiver! She is so kind with them and will treat them as her own. She will even take them running, as she does when she volunteers with the spca! Shelby is also very responsible and has grown up with dogs, so she knows how to take care of them and keep them happy. Anyone's dog would be in great hands with Shelby!
Shelby has house/dog sat for my family on several accounts. She is a responsible, active young women who will not let you down. She pays close attention to detail especially when it concerns the needs of the animal in her care. She is a bright soul and a joy to be around. Let's just say, if I were a dog, she'd be my ideal walker and caretaker.
