Shelby was very patient and so sweet to our anxious dog. Our usual sitters fell through and our dog isn’t easy to keep, so we were nervous having someone else keep her, but Shelby went above and beyond to make sure our girl felt safe and loved. She sent us lots of pictures and kept us updated on how she was doing every day!

Shelby did a wonderful job with my sweet Ori Angel. She sent plenty of photos, videos and communicated efficiently. Shelby was very hands on and carrying with my puppy I could tell my fur baby was comfortable and given lots of love care. I needed to extend do to an unforeseen family emergency and Shelby was so understanding and worked with us. I would recommend her service to anyone who loves their fur babies and want the best care for them. I will be returning if i ever need another sitter in the future.

We’re so thankful to Shelby! She took great care of my dog and was so patient with us as we were delayed by the weekend storms. Highly recommended booking with her

Shelby is an amazing dog sitter. She took care of my fearful, timid foster dog on two separate occasions. She is very flexible when it came to drop off and pickup times. She is very sweet, kind and understanding. She took real good care of my foster dog who is always happy to see her. My foster got zoomies and got very excited the second time we dropped her off. For a fearful dog that reaction tells a lot about how well cared for she was. You can clearly tell Shelby loves dog and taking care of them is not just a job for her! I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter.

Shelby took great care of our sweet boy while we were out of town. We received many updates and he had a great time with her and his new friends! We will most definitely use her again in the future.

Safety, trust & environment

I take care of my dog Riley by going outside and throwing his toys in the backyard and daily walks! I will take care of your dog how you want! I watch my parents dogs all the time and they often need oral medications, ointments, and special diets. I hope to make your pet as comfortable and anxiety free while you’re away!

it’s important to know if they have previously bitten any dogs or if they are aggressive in anyway. Safety is my number one priority so if a dog bites another dog I will report it to you immediately. It’s important to know their feeding schedule, favorite things, and to bring their bed so they are extra comfy!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
