Pawsitively Purrfect Pet Sitting (:

Hi there! I'm Shelby, your go-to pet sitter on Rover! With a lifelong passion for all things furry, I've been caring for a wide variety of pets since the tender age of 8, including my own beloved pets. My experience is with dogs, cats, chameleons, hamsters, fish, and chickens. As a camp counselor for 4 years, I've honed my skills in providing top-notch care for all ages of children and what are pets if not children. Not only can I provide all the necessities such as feeding, administering medication and giving baths, but I also love to take dogs for long walks, play fetch and tug-of-war, and provide plenty of cuddles and belly rubs. And if you've got a pup that needs a bit of training, never fear! I may not have professional training experience but I have 3 years of experience working in a help desk and am an avid google researcher and am always ready to try my best to teach your pup new tricks. When you trust me with your furry family member, you can rest assured they will be in the best of hands.

Safety, trust & environment

As a dedicated pet lover, I am excited to offer my pet-sitting services to you and your furry friend. While I am unable to board pets at my own home, I am more than happy to pick up your pets for walks or outings, provide drop-in visits, and even do overnight stays to ensure your pet is comfortable and well-cared for. As a borderline neat freak and an experienced houseguest, you can trust me to take great care of your home and pets while you are away. I will leave your place even better than I found it.

Shelby was on time, responsive and responsible. Our kitties were alive and well and our house was left immaculate. Shelby stays on our favorites list!

I know how important it is to have all the necessary information about the dogs I take care of. Prior to caring for a dog, I always ask the owner if their dog has any medical conditions, allergies, or other special needs that I should be aware of. It's also important for me to know the age, breed, and temperament of the dog, as this can help me tailor my care to their individual needs. I like to ask about the dog's daily routine, such as feeding and exercise habits, and any specific commands or cues they respond to. Knowing the dog's favorite toys or treats can also be helpful in making them feel comfortable and happy. By having all this information ahead of time, I can ensure that I provide the best possible care for the dog while they're in my care.
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.
