Information Shelby R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors ahead of time. I would like to know if they have medical issues, are prone to biting, etc. Thanks!

A typical day

As I’m currently staying in a cabin on a large plot of land, I will be able to walk or run (or both) with your dog throughout the day. If toys are provided we can have lots of fetch and tug of war sessions, or I can use provided treats to help with training.

Pet care experience

Hi :) My name is Shelby, and I’m a recent college graduate. I’m currently staying in Bethlehem for the next couple months, so don’t hesitate to reach out if you are in the greater Connecticut area. I have lived with dogs and animals my entire life, and properly cared for them for about 8. I’m a trusted dog sitter between my neighbors, friends, and family and am looking to expand my clientele! I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, and spent last summer working at a dog daycare in California. Dogs truly are my best friends 🐶 That being said, I would love the opportunity to care for your furry friend :) I can administer medication, and care for both puppies as well as senior dogs!

Shelby is one of the biggest dog lovers I have ever had the pleasure to meet! She has not only volunteered at animal shelters to help care for dogs, but also is a friend to any dog she sees! Dogs love Shelby too! She is sweet, gentle, and the perfect cuddle and play partner for any dog! Her dogs are the most precious things to her and she will definitely treat anyone’s dog beyond perfect! 11/10 dog lover!
