Flexible and Reliable Pet Lover!
Pet care experience
COVID-19 Update: As a healthcare professional, I have already been vaccinated and was previously tested and found negative multiple times. For the safety of both of us, I will practice social distancing, wear a mask 100% of the time, and sanitize my hands before and after the walk/visit. Any other procedures that will make you feel the most comfortable can be practiced as well. Do not hesitate to reach out with questions and/or concerns! I have always loved animals from the time I was young. I started animal care at the age of 15 working on horse farms and followed my love of animals to become a vet tech. Throughout this time I worked at kennels, veterinary clinics, and sanctuaries. I have experience with dogs, cats, small animals, reptiles and amphibians, and large animals including horses and various farm animals. My own personal pets have ranged from dogs to mice to bearded dragons to cats and I have loved every single one of them! I have a life long love of animals and over 10 years of experience caring for them. My work on horse farms built my incredible work ethic as each day required early hours and hard labor. My vet tech experience exposed me to all types of dogs and cats, from the agressive type to the fearful type, and I gained patience and compassion for each and every type of animal. These experiences have made me a well rounded and capable pet caretaker who is dependable, punctual, and flexible. I am excited to meet you and your pet!
Reviews
Shelby met my two cats Novi and Naomi and they absolutely loved her. They were sad when she had to leave. I highly recommend her.
Shelby is an amazing dog sitter and animal lover. Bella, my family pet, is always so excited to see her and is more than comfortable to be left alone with her. Shelby is always there when I need her and I honestly don’t know what I would do without her.
Shelby is a coworker of mine and she's brilliant with animals, given that a large portion of our job is centered around animals. She is very trustworthy and reliable and your animal would be in great hands with her! 10/10, would recommend!
Shelby is an affectionate, genuine person who is patient and eager to get to know you and your pet(s). She cares very much for all kinds of animals and is a good pick for sitter/walker.
