Pet care experience

I'm the gal trying to pet your dog

I have helped care for dogs my entire life. Growing up my parents ran a pet sitting buisness. My mother was a vet tech and our large loving home was full of dogs-both our own and clients of my parents- many of whom our family watched through the span of a lifetime. Because of this, dogs have played a pivotal part in my life and I just adore them! I am the lady at the dog park loving on all of your pups, and taking their photos!

Shelby is the absolute best! Ozzy always has the best time with her. She makes him so comfortable and he always comes home so happy and sleepy from having so much fun! She is so good with sending updates and makes Ozzy feel so at home!

Shelby, her husband and dog Soma took amazing care of Moose while we were out of the country. Daily updates showed him going on adventures every day and that he had settled in with their daily life easily. I wasn't sure he would want to come back home since he was having so much fun! I had zero concerns that Moose was being taken care of. They treated him like part of the family. I would not hesitate to book again. 💜

Shelby took great care of Max and Max was clearly comfortable and happy when we picked her up. Shelby is a great communicator and worked to determine and meet our dogs needs. She got lots of love and lots of exercise. Would highly recommend Shelby!

Shelby was AWESOME! She clearly made Winnie a part of her family for the week. Her dog was a sweetheart at our visit. She sent lots of photos and took Winnie on lots of fun walks.

Shelby did a great job with both our dogs. She walked them daily and took pictures of them having fun.

Ozzy had the best time! He went on so many adventures and came back the happiest boy ever! I forgot to book an extra day and Shelby was so accommodating. The best sitter!
