Pet care experience

Large fenced back yard

I have kept friends and family dogs for years. I think dogs are members of the family. Grew up on a farm with 9 cats and 5 dogs and 2 horses. I will treat all pets in the way their family treats them. With lots of love. I raised mini dachshunds since the 80s and now down to my last spayed female who thinks she is a human. Love all animals and would step up to speak out for the abused pet. When I travel to Tennessee to see my children and grand girls I drive so my pets can travel with me. Proud to have raised 3 children who respect and love animals as I do. All r animal owners and lovers. Great animals are to be loved and nurtured.

Shelly did a GREAT job with my Molly. She sent a few pictures while I was gone and kept me up to date. I only hope she continues to host pets so Molly can continue to be taken care of while I'm gone. Thanks Shelly for all you did.

Shelley was amazing and looked after our baby Lulu for the day. She kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and gave us all the reassurance we needed for a last minute booking. Thanks again!

Pets

A typical day

Outdoor play area. Ball playing. Older pets enjoy their numerous naps. Walks for those who enjoy walking. Lizard chasing seems to be great fun. All pets have individual needs and wants, so I listen to the family, to know what is best for each pet.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
No females in heat
Shelley can host up to 2 pets per night
Dispositions. Medical or special diet needs. Schedules for feeding and potty breaks. Words they understand as potty, play, ball or toy. Fear of thunder or fireworks ?. Uggg.
