Pet care experience

I’ve had years of dog sitter and walker experience and grew up breeding white German shepherds! Love dogs of all sizes and breeds. I own a pitbull mix myself and have had her for 10 years now, she’s very loved and a rescue.

Shelby is always great with our animals. She keeps us updated with anything happening while we are gone. And the dog loves her!

Shelby is always a treat to have in our home and our two bulldogs love her. We have used her a few time’s and already have her booked for an upcoming trip. Can’t suggest her enough.

Shelby did a great job housesitting for us while we were away on an extended trip. She took great care of our cat and left our house clean, organized, and just as we'd left it. She checked in with us often to provide updates, as well. Thanks so much for your services, Shelby!

Shelby took great care of our 2 dogs and our house was left in perfect condition. I think it was cleaner when we returned. Which says a lot with dogs in the summer.

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.
