Indiscriminate animal lover

Pet care experience

I've loved all animals for as long as I can remember. I've cared for my own furbabies, roommates' and friends' pets, sick, elderly, and special needs. I have volunteered at a farm animal sanctuary, so aside from cats, dogs, and fish, I have experience with pigs, goats, and chickens as well.

Coming back home to a happy dog and a well taken care of house is priceless! Than you Shelley! We hope to see you soon!

Shelley was so great and communicative. She was extra patient with us as we asked her to come twice before our trip to walk through some things with our pup. She also taught me to use Rover since I am a novice and apparently technologically challenged. We appreciate you, Shelley!

Shelley was great and I highly recommend her. She took care of my shy little cat and left the home in ship shape. What more can you ask?

Safety, trust & environment

I will follow any specific instructions necessary to care for your pet. I'm accustomed to special diets/supplements, medications, etc. I have reliable transportation for vet visits if necessary. I'm also accustomed to walking any size dog, though I prefer dogs that have some degree of leash training.

Information Shelley P. would like to know about your pet

The most important thing is medical/health needs - if your animal takes any medication, has specific dietary needs, a medical condition, and if they have a regular vet. Aside from that - personality traits, demeanor, behavior around other animals, and what they enjoy for mental and physical exercise.

A typical day

I like to defer to owners' preferences for their animals - if they have favorite toys, favorite games, dog parks, places to walk, etc. Once I get to know an animal, I generally have a good idea of their likes and dislikes and go with that.
