I currently do around 80% of my work from home and my partner works from home 100% of the time. This means that your pet will have so much attention! I keep my availability up to date to reflect the few days I won’t be home all day.

Likes, dislikes, toys and game preferences. Normal daily routine so that I can keep everything as normal and comfortable as possible for them! How are they with other animals? Are they crate trained? Are they housebroken?

A typical day

Walks around the neighborhood, fetch in the yard, car rides (if they like them), loves and cuddles! My hole can be as active or inactive as your loved one would like.

DogTrainer and VetTech

Pet care experience

I have been a Vet Tech in clinics for over a decade and I am currently a Vet Tech and Dog Trainer. In this time, I’ve learned to medicate animals of all shapes and sizes in many different ways. This experience has also taught me how to respond to emergency situations with animals, including life saving quick response skills. My own dogs are a variety of herding dogs starting with Beaucerons and a well loved Koolie. Currently I own and operate a dog training business, I am always open to taking new clients! I have plenty of personal and professional experience with dogs who have different needs to be healthy and entertained. I have happily nursed little kittens and old cats as well. I am now back in school so my schedule varies, but I keep my availability updated. I’m free most week days and all day on the weekends. I can also do early morning walks before class during the weekdays. Please feel free to contact me and I’m sure we can work around both of our schedules! Making your best friend purr is my goal! I’m very much looking forward to helping you take care of your fur baby and making them as happy as possible!

Amazing, understanding and very very accommodating. I had a my original sitter go to the ER. And as we were leaving town, Shelby appeared available. Though I hadn't gotten Teddy vaccinated yet because of his age, she was gracious enough to still watch him for is. Her and her spouse treated my little guy like their own. Even gave him a much needed bath, which he hates. Haha her pets are very understanding and patient. My puppy can be kind of a nuisance. And didnt seem to phase them in the videos Shelby sent me. Very grateful. Will ABSOLUTELY RETURN.

Shelby was great! We got stuck out of town and she was incredibly flexible and took great care of our pup. Highly recommend.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
