Your pet's new favorite Aunt!

Pet care experience

I have had animals all my life. I have worked in the Animal Welfare field since 2011. I foster a lot of puppies, and I have gotten a system down to help puppies learn potty training. I currently have a deaf epileptic dog who is on seizure medication, so I am no stranger to giving medication and being around special needs dogs. I am comfortable with all breeds and sizes of dogs.

Shelby is an absolute gem when it comes to pet care! Her extensive experience with animals shines through in every interaction. From the moment you meet her, you will know your fur baby is in capable hands. Shelby's genuine love for animals is evident in the way she interacts with them, providing not just basic care, but also plenty of love, attention, and is fully confident and capable with special needs dogs. She has great professionalism and clear communication throughout the entire process. It's incredibly reassuring to leave your beloved pet with someone as dedicated and knowledgeable as Shelby. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch pet sitting services!

Shelby would be awesome doing anything involving your pets. I've known her for her entire life. She always puts her dogs well-being first. My dogs are like my children. She is the only person I have ever allowed my dogs to stay with because I don't trust just anyone to take care of or love my dogs like I do. I know that Shelby can be trusted with my babies. My girl loves staying with Shelby. She has been a great example of fostering dogs to give them a home, and taking on some more serious medical needs for dogs that most people would not make the time for. Yet, she continues to do a fantastic job in her profession working with animals, while having very well-behaved and loved dogs at home. She has patience to work with the challenging, and plenty of love for them all. If everyone in this world had her heart for dogs, there would be no need for shelters.

Jacks absolutely loves Shelby. He gets so excited when she comes to visit. I always know that he is having fun and getting lots of snuggles when he is with her, and she treats every dog like they are part of her family. If you are looking for someone to watch your dogs where you know they are in good hands, you can’t go wrong with Shelby!

Shelby has cared for my three dogs several times. They love to stay with her when we are out of town. She is so caring and loving to all animals. Shelby is also so knowledgeable about the behavioral characteristics of our fur babies. When they are in her care I don’t have to worry about them, I know they are safe and having lots of fun! They love to play with her fur babies in her fenced in back yard. They have lots of room to run and play. She is definitely our go to girl for watching our dogs while we are away.
