Pet care experience

Your Fur Babies Best Friend!

Hi there! My name is Shelby, and I’ve been passionate about animals my entire life. From dogs and cats to birds, guinea pigs, and fish, I’ve had the privilege of caring for a wide variety of pets. My experience includes over 10 years of general pet care and 5+ years of walking and training dogs. I’m also a dedicated volunteer at local shelters, where I help care for and comfort animals in need. I’m skilled in training dogs to walk calmly on a leash, handling even the most energetic pets with ease, and working with shy or nervous animals. I have a knack for making them feel comfortable and secure—often within just an hour or so! What I Offer: - Flexible schedule (I work from home!) - Personalized care that follows your pet’s routine and house rules - Crate training, leash training, potty training, etc if needed - Separation of pets (e.g., dogs and cats) to maintain harmony if needed - Lots of love, patience, and attention! Whether your pet needs playtime, a walk, or simply someone to snuggle with, you can trust that I’ll treat them like they’re my own. I’m committed to ensuring your furry friend feels right at home, whether I’m visiting your house or they’re staying with me. Let’s chat about how I can help make your pet’s day amazing!

Wow! Shelby is an INCREDIBLE sitter. We just had her stay with our 14 week old puppy and couldn’t be happier. Shelby was so communicative, worked with our needs (especially since our puppy is just learning commands and potty training), and even taught her several new tricks (like finally using the bell to ask to go outside). We will definitely be using Shelby again!!

Easiest 5 stars ever. I could tell my cat was immediately comfortable with Shelby. She gave the most detailed updates and plenty of pics/videos were provided! 😁

Shelby was very communicative throughout the process and kindly sent my update photos of hangouts with my pet. Would highly recommend Shelby to others and would select her again.
