Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I ensure all steps are followed for your pets care based on your instructions. I provide sitting services and walking services, so I follow the pet-owners requests for how they would like things to be done. On top of that, I make sure your furry friend gets lots of love and attention so they feel cared for and safe. Please note: I ask all security/pet cameras inside the home be disclosed before I begin the stay, and whether they will be recording while I’m inside your home. I reserve the right to request cameras be turned off while I’m in the home. Thank you!

Shelby was very responsible. She took great care of my cats at our home and was very friendly with them. She updated me every day and sent me photos. When I returned, everything was perfect. Thank you 😊

As a furry parent leaving my pet at home for the first time. I was already stressed due to having to fly across the country to take care of personal matters. Causing fleeting thoughts minor or major, coupled with the stress and nerves leading to forgetting to mention the living room camera for security of the home and safety moniterance of my cat. camera. Which is important to mention prior to the sitter doing their duties as it is part of house rules. Which was that for security reasons, I had living room camera. Which I set to animal motion notifications. Ad h can be seen upon entry, can easily be missed. But should have been communicated regardless. It wasn't until landing from my flight, seeing the notification. Not often ill check as previously they were not inky installed for security but for my cats safety. I got the notification for the animal motion sensors that I realised I forgot to mention them. Noting my error, others would have still felt uneasy about forgetting something rather crutial. And would no longer in home sit just drop in vists. and understand of the error mad eit known that as it should have been com in nicated prior to the start of the service. To no longer returns to pet sit for me. hope they would a and you'd hope they wouldn't abandon my pet all together. Rather Shelby be a reason and good person still stayed and carried out the services. is such a great person understanding the error Which often I dont worry to check, cause they'll show she's playing when by herself. Causing a bit of a fleeting thought, couple with the stress and nerves lead to forgetting to mention the camera. But knowing I'm not home, and she easily stressed to changes. Causing her to act out, like climbing places she not suppose to or breaking things. Especially when she is home alone. For example, one time I had family staying over. Having changes in the household lead to her breaking a cup that was on the kitchen counter left by a family member. When we went out gorciery shopping. Luckily we just got home and were able to clean it. If we had been longer the glass deposit all over the floor would have caused an emergency room vist. Knowing this, I had to make sure this wasn't the case. Though learning from previous mistakes, theirs still flower pots and center fruit bowls. Luckily it wasn't of the sort and they were trying to play. I thought messaging Shelby for tips to help comfort her with something mom does. Not out of back seat driving, know she cannot replicate me. It is when realised, I messaged Shelby of tops to help play productivity to build connect. It wasn't meant to back seat drive, as I thought playing like how she does with her mom will bring her a sense of comfort to ease her stress. I checked the to see the notification. Everything was fine, It was until then, the next day after I landed. I realised I forgot to mention the security camera in the living room. It is understandable Which though can be seen upopn entry, can easily be missed but should always be communicated to her. I As elthey are well within the right to. Which anxious, and nervous about leaving her alone with someone she doesn't know. She did leave me to forget to mention things until after, Though upon meeting Shelby prior to her pet sitting. She is very kinds, understand and ensured to take no of all specifics regulated to Pawdry. Even when she missed one or two things, when it can to feeding instruction she made sure to make up for it the second time around the feeding schedule.
