RVT, CHPT with 27 years experience

Pet care experience

I have worked in animal medicine for 27 years and owned/operated my own pet sitting business. I love all animals and have cared for birds, pocket pets, dog and cats. I am comfortable giving oral/topical and injections (ex. Insulin). Two years ago I spent a year getting certified in animal hospice and palliative care. I know leaving a little old timer at home is stressful and requires someone with advanced caregiving skills. I welcome dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, rodents and small reptiles.

Shelley is amazing! Every time we drop off Jackie for her stay we know she is going to be well cared for. Jackie is always excited to go to Shelley's house and hang out with Bruce and Biscuit and explore her fenced back yard.

Shelley is wonderful! I felt at ease knowing my pets were in her care. The cats seemed relaxed and happy when I got home.

Harley absolutely loves going to daycare! He now has a buddy to play and boy does he have with Bruce! I have no worries leaving Harley with Shelley, it sure eases the mind when you know your little is loved!

Information Shelley B. would like to know about your pet

Please bring all your pets food, bedding, crate/pen if applicable, treats and medications. If your pet requires medication, provide detailed instructions on dosing and frequency. If your pet is currently under veterinary care, please provide your veterinary clinic information including phone and address. I would also ask that you call the clinic and register a cc number as well as my info should something come up. That way we can keep the care consistent (really only applies for debilitated animals under direct vet care, ex congestive heart failure).

A typical day

Dogs will be walked once daily and let out in our fenced yard several times daily as needed. My two dogs will be barky with a newcomer at first but are good boys and respectful. Your dog must not have a history of dog aggression to stay here. Your dog will be part of our daily life wiyh lots of love and attention from myself, my husband and two teenage daughters. Birds are kept upstairs and cats/caged pets have their own room with large xpen (for rabbits and piggies). We welcome dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, rodents of all types and some small reptiles.
