Pet care experience

Lifetime dog owner/lover!

Hi! I'm Shelby, and I have owned dogs my entire life. I am a Nurse Practitioner, hold a PhD, and have a knack for connecting with dogs. My husband, 8-year-old daughter, 3-year-old son, and I currently share our Holbrook home with our mixed-breed rescue pup, Felix. Felix adores other dogs and has a laid back, friendly personality. Our home has a large sized yard. Though our yard is not fenced in, our neighborhood is extremely dog friendly, with parks in every direction, even right next door! We love to take walks as a family, enjoy local dog parks, and just snuggle on the couch too. We would love to host your fur baby!

Shelby sent us updates and pictures the entire time we were away. She said Zoey had an awesome time with them. She enjoyed playing with their dog and running around. We could tell by the pictures that our dog was very happy and comfortable staying with them. We were very impressed and would highly recommend Shelby.

We are very happy with Shelby and her family. We really like they have two kids and they spent time with our Miso. I'm sure Miso loved to hang out with them. Thank you and we will bring Miso back to Shelby soon!

Shelby and her family took excellent care of our two golden retrievers over a weekend that we traveled out of state. They sent us timely updates and pictures and our pups had a great stay. Highly recommend!
