Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pets second best friend
I’ve had experience caring for pets since 2011. I was the primary caretaker for our family cat while in middle and high school and I’ve owned my own dog and cats since 2017. I currently have 1 dog and 3 cats in my home and have fostered many more over the years. I have taken care of sick stray animals and nursed them back to health, found many their forever homes, and provided dependable care to ones already living with their families! I helped with local rescues for 4 years while living overseas and worked at our local boarding facility and shelter for 2 of those. My experience caring for pets is vast and I would love to have the opportunity to care for yours!

Ratings and reviews
I am so blessed to have found Shelby very soon after looking for a sitter. She is consistent, honest, punctual, and just adores Barnabas. If I could give her 6 stars, I would!
Shelby is amazing. You can tell she really has a heart for dogs and treated my dog with a lot of affection. She is also very punctual and on top of sending pictures, updates, and reports about every visit. I will definitely be booking her again!
We were so lucky to end up with Shelby as a sitter. She was extremely communicative and prompt with her visits, and gave extra care and attention to our pets. Highly recommended!!
Shelby looked after my cat Birdie while I was away for a week and did a tremendous job of taking care of her and also easing my worries. Highly recommend and plan to work with again when I go on future trips.
Shelby was very professional and showed up on time.
I'm so thankful for everything Shelby does for my dog Sandy!
