Your pets need are my priority!

Pet care experience

During my years of pet sitting, I've had the pleasure of working with various pets, each with their own specific needs. One experience that stands out is when I took care of a senior dog named Maple. Maple was a 12-year-old Labrador with mobility issues and required extra attention and care. To ensure Maple’s comfort, I implemented a specialized care routine. I researched and implemented exercises to help improve her mobility and joint health. I also provided her with a comfortable orthopedic bed and made sure her living space was easily accessible. I even collaborated with Maple’s veterinarian to devise a tailored diet plan that supported his overall well-being. In addition to my expertise in senior pet care, I also possess special skills in training puppies. I believe that early socialization and basic obedience training are essential for new puppies. During my time as a pet sitter, I've successfully trained several puppies in basic commands, potty training, and leash walking. This ensures a smooth transition for both the puppy and the owner. What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to adapt to the unique needs of each pet. I am knowledgeable in administering medication, managing specific dietary restrictions, and maintaining a safe and stimulating environment for pets of all ages. Most importantly, I always prioritize the emotional well-being of the pets I care for, ensuring they receive plenty of love, attention, and mental stimulation. I stay up-to-date with the latest research on pet care and attend workshops to further enhance my skills. My dedication, patience, and genuine love for animals enable me to provide exceptional care to every pet I encounter.

Since I have known Shelby her kindness and big heart shined right through her. She always does the right thing and is a helpful hand. Shelby is one of the most reliable people I know. She has helped me out with my dog in the past. Not only could I trust her but Max was comfortable and adored her.

Information Shelby L. would like to know about your pet

In general I just need to know if your pet is good or bad around other animals. Any additional care they may need such as special needs or elderly dogs. If they are high energy so I can make plans to go to the park with them. Anything that may be important for the pet owner to tell me about your animal I would greatly appreciate.

A typical day

What a pet can expect from me is lots of love and care, a good walk, playing with toys in the house or the backyard, maybe a treat here and there and always taking care of all their need no matter what they could be.
