Pet care experience

Add your pet to my pack!

Hi there! I’ve been an experienced vet tech for 6+ years and love nothing more than working with pets. I currently have 3 of my own that my world revolves around! They are great with dogs of all ages and energy styles. Whether your dog would love some playmates or is more relaxed and wants to be left alone, my dogs easily adjust to a doggie guest in our home. Needless to say, whether it’s in your home or mine, I will give your pet the time, care & attention they need! I have a large yard and love hiking or taking my dogs swimming, so if your dog is active and will enjoy outings please let me know and I would be glad to take them out of the house while you are enjoying your vacation. I am experienced with medical cases and can give medications including injections.

Shelby took the best care of our full house of furry critters! Responsive and got our most difficult dog to warm right up to her. Took the best photos on top of it all to send us daily updates. We'll absolutely book with Shelby again!

Shelby was great with my energetic Border Collie! She was dependable and updated me every step along the way. I’d leave 6 stars if I could.

Shelby did a fantastic job and my two giant pups adored her. I left her quite the detailed instructions bc Oliver is a handful and she did a great job handling his energy. Thank you again Shelby for everything ?

It was our first time using a dog sitter. Shelby took our last minute request and was very flexible. She made us feel at ease and took great care of our girls. One of our dogs is elderly and high maintenance, Shelby made sure she got the attention and care she needed. She was also great with communication. She even picked up the poo in the yard before she left! Highly recommend. Thanks for everything, Shelby!

I work from home and can give your pet the time and attention they need during the day. I have multiple rooms in my house so whether your dog wants to lounge around with the pack, or needs to be separated, we will make what needs to happen work for your pup!

Safety, trust & environment

I have experience working with all types of dogs, whether they’re super outgoing, a little shy, or even maybe a little reactive, I have no problem adjusting to meet their needs. I have extensive experiences working with special needs/medical case animals as well!

Pets

A typical day

I am super active with my own dogs. We love hiking, playing fetch and frisbee outside in the field, or spending a day swimming at the lake. But don’t worry, we still spend plenty of time cuddled up on the couch. Whether your dog is super active and needs plenty of stimulation or is more of a couch potato, we’ll work around their needs and do whatever makes them feel at home :)

Shelby can host up to 3 pets per night
Please let me know what a normal day looks like for your pup. Are they more active and need plenty of stimulation or are they more of a lazy cuddle bug? Can your dog be left alone, if not, do they do well in a crate? How is your dog with other dogs? These answers always help me gauge if I will be a good fit for you and your baby :)
