Pet care experience

I am an online master's student at the University of Alabama and an avid runner. I love being outside and going on adventures and would love to take your dog with me! When I see a dog across the way, I want to play with them and I am secretly hoping they notice me too. I've also been known to borrow my neighbors dog so I could love on them and take them on a walk. It's the perfect study break and boosts my mood after studying all day. We can play fetch at the park near my home or go on short or long walks, depending on your dog's ability. I am even willing to take your dog on my runs with me if they are good on leashes, but I am willing to teach and practice with them if you are interested!

Shelby was an awesome house sitter and took great care of our pets. She got served a couple curve balls when the dog threw up but she handled everything perfectly. Kept us updated regularly and was a pleasure to work with. 10/10 would recommend!

Shelby took great care of our dog who can be a bit high maintenance. She sent photo updates frequently and left our house spotless!

Shelby was an incredible sitter to have in our home with our pets. We feel confident that she gave our dog a lot of time and attention. Both outside being active and snuggled up inside! Our cat has been known to be picky and sometimes hides upstairs when we have guests. So we were extra happy when Shelby sent pictures of her hanging out & being social while we were away. Meeting Shelby ahead of our trip is what sealed the deal. I could just feel that she was the right match and would happily spend time with our babies. She knew the right questions to ask so she would be successful following their routine, and giving the level of care we were looking for. We’re thrilled to have found her and would recommend to all! Shelby was sure to reach out daily to report that all was well, asked questions, and shared whatever enjoyable moment had most recently happened. Seeing the pictures regularly made us feel at ease with her there. Shelby even handled our kitchen sink backing up, and made sure it wasn’t a bigger and more immediate issue. It was a joy to return home and see that it was just as clean if not cleaner than we left it :)

Shelby was a wonderful sitter for Juniper. She made herself available on very short notice and took great care of Juniper who is recovering from surgery. She sent detailed updates and was lovely to communicate with. We would be happy to book with her again!
