Pet care experience

Pet care has been my lifelong love

As a child I helped raise 2 litters of Golden Retriever puppies which is what precipitated starting my own pet sitting business in my neighborhood at 12 years old. Although I’ve held professional and continue to do so I finally have the time and flexibility to do what I grew up loving to do.

Safety, trust & environment

When possible, I do like to meet new dogs with their owners at least once before services are needed to establish trust with the animals and their humans. Not always required but it is preferred.

Shelby was absolutely wonderful with my very nervous and highly anxious little pup-pup. Definitely recommend!

Love having Shelby watch our fur-babies! She even got out grumpy recluse kitty to come out for pets and love!

Shelby did a great job for us! She responded almost immediately to my inquiry and came to our house to get instructions right away. She was always prompt and took great care of our cats. We will definitely call her again!

Shelby communicates, follows instructions, and is a good at navigating each of my pups. She helps us greatly with stop ins so the dogs can go outside, get some water, attention, and food, while we are away from the day. I always feel comfortable knowing she will be there to tend to them. Thanks for the help!
