My kids and I love to play toys and fetch with the dogs. I enjoy taking long walks. I am always talking with them to make them feel included. We usually go on 4 walks a day, a long one in the early morning, lunchtime, 630pm and about 1030pm for the last potty break.

I’ve had dogs my entire life!

Pet care experience

I have been raised with dogs my whole life. I have trained my dogs to sit, lay down, roll over, recall and leave it. My youngest puppy was 3 months old and I raised her until she was almost 13 years old. I am very fit and am able to walk for an hour at a time. I’ve had experience with pullers and biters. I have given medications to my senior dog. I have 2 kids, 12 and 14 years old who both love dogs. I do not have a dog at this time, so your fur baby will get all the attention. There is a dog park in front of my house and at the end of my block. Your baby will be in great hands with me! I am reliable and am often asked to babysit friends kids, dogs, cats, check on homes and mail. I am very honest and trustworthy.

This was Maggie’s second time staying with Shelley and Chris and it was great the second time around too! Shelley is great with communication and sending updates and photos. Maggie was taken great care of and had plenty of walks and cuddles and play time. I would highly recommend trusting your pet with Shelley and Chris!! I was able to relax all weekend knowing she was in good hands.

Shelley and her sweet family took such great care of my pup, sending daily updates and pictures and giving her lots of love in our absence. We will definitely be using her again and I would recommend her without hesitation!

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.
