About Shelby O.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a quiet, pet-friendly, one-story home with minimal stairs and a spacious, secure yard perfect for dogs who enjoy fresh air and room to play. Inside, I use gates to thoughtfully separate areas of the home, allowing me to create a calm, structured environment tailored to each pet’s comfort and needs. Im happy to accommodate crate-trained dogs and have dedicated space available for rest and decompression when needed. Our cats have their own separate room and can remain fully separated to ensure a safe, low-stress environment for everyone. Whether your pet enjoys exploring the yard, structured playtime, or relaxing in a cozy spot indoors, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home.

Information Shelby O. would like to know about your pet

Before any stay, I like to learn as much as possible about your pet so I can provide the safest and most comfortable experience for them. Please let me know about their daily routine, energy level, temperament, and how they do around other animals and new environments. I also appreciate knowing about any medical needs, allergies, medications, anxieties, fears, escape tendencies, resource guarding, or behavioral quirks ahead of time. For dogs, it’s especially helpful to know their crate experience, leash manners, training background, feeding schedule, and anything that helps them feel most at home. My goal is to create a low-stress environment where your pet feels safe, understood, and cared for like one of my own.

A typical day

Every pet is different, so I like to tailor activities to their personality, age, and energy level! For active dogs, we enjoy structured playtime in the yard, enrichment games, walks, basic obedience refreshers, and confidence-building activities. For higher-energy or working breeds, I can also incorporate mentally engaging activities and structured routines to help them stay fulfilled and relaxed. For pets who prefer a slower pace, I make sure they have plenty of calm attention, cuddle time, and a comfortable environment to relax in. I also provide regular potty breaks, supervised outdoor time, and lots of positive interaction throughout the day. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for while keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible.

Pets

Lifelong Animal Lover

Pet care experience

With years of hands-on animal experience, I’ve fostered kittens, raised service dog puppies, and worked at a reptile and fish store during college. Throughout school, I also rescued and rehomed animals in need. Today, I share my home with two German Shepherds, one actively training and one just beginning her journey. I’m passionate about positive reinforcement, structured care, and creating an environment where animals feel safe, confident, and loved. From high-energy working dogs to small pets, I understand that every animal has unique needs and deserves patient, knowledgeable care. Your pet will be treated like family and cared for with the same attention and dedication I give my own.
