The care your pups deserve

Pet care experience

Hello! I believe as you do that dogs are family and they deserve only the very best! Leaving your dog on a vacation can be scary, it is important to know that they are properly cared for while you are away. I am available for your weekend getaways/vacation needs. I have one dog of my own that I adore! She is very friendly and love playing with others. With 10 + years of experience in caring for animals I have fostered dogs and volunteered at shelters in the past helping with rescue pups. I have behavioral training, experience and I am able to administer medication. I look forward to meeting you and your dog and will accommodate to your needs as a dog parent while you are away. (I will gladly keep you updated with calls/texts/photos while your dog is in my care, should you choose to be updated.) Rest assured your dog will be well cared for as if it were my own. Thank you for your trust and consideration in using my services. Shelby S.

She seems great when meeting get on two different occasions and thought our pups would be in great hands before we left for vacation. Needless to say that wasn’t the case. Although we do not have cameras in our homes to maintain the privacy of the sitter since we asked her to stay at our house for the days we were gone so we could avoid them being crated at night since they weren’t used to that. We do have an alarm system that tells us when the doors open/close and for how long as well as the garage door. They were in their crates for 70% of the day and when she came to let them use the bathroom it was only for a few minutes and back in their crates until later in the evening say around 8-10pm. We can’t confirm if she stayed every night and our neighbors said they hardly ever saw her there or her car. She sent 4 photos in the time we were gone. Hardly any updates from her on how our pups were doing seeing how she was hardly every there. She assured us that she was able to work with us and her work schedule so she could be there with the pups instead of leaving them in their crates all day which was not the case. She lives less than 5 minutes away from us and wasn’t able to perform her duties that were asked of her. We paid a lot of money for our pups to sit in their crates.
