Safety, trust & environment

While pet sitting I make it my goal to maintain great communication with the owner about the expectation of the pet sitting experience. I’m happy to accommodate any of you and your pets needs throughout the stay, drop in visit, or walk.

Information Shelby V. would like to know about your pet

Before taking care of your dog, horse, chicken, goat, cat, llama, whatever creature you may have, I would love to know their regular schedule to try and keep them to that schedule the best I can. Additional key information for me is emergency contact numbers and your veterinarian.

A typical day

My day to day is very flexible and adjustable based on what your dog likes and is used to. I’m happy to do long or short walks on the bike path or hike the mountains! If they like the dog park I’m also more than happy for take them there as well!

Experienced & Flexible Pet Sitting

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Shelby and I’ve taken care of variety or different types of pets and livestock over the years. I worked as an equine veterinary assistant for over 5 years and have always known I wanted animals to be apart of my daily life. Since my teenage years I have been pet sitting for family, friends, and other clients. I love caring for a wide variety of animals from world champion show greyhounds, chickens, or your house cat. I am punctual and reliable and will love your pet!

Wow! Best dog sitter we've had in Sun Valley! Shelby provided a continuous stream of photos and information while we we gone so we never worried about our pups or our home. Shelby left our home sparkling clean.

We couldn't ask for more in a dog sitter! Shelby was a true dog whisperer, from long walks, constant snuggles, and many photos to keep us up to speed on what was going on while we were away. We can't wait for our next visit!

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.
