Dog lover with a fenced in yard!
Pet care experience
Hi there! About me.. I am a true dog lover! There has never been a time in my life that I haven’t had at least two dogs in my home. From a Chihuahua to a Great Dane.. I love every gender, breed, personality and size dog! Some of my dogs I’ve raised from the time they were born and some I rescued when they were older. My dogs are my babies! I spoil my pups with lots of love and attention and I will spoil yours too. Your dogs will be happy and loved with us, I guarantee it! Along with my husband who also adores dogs we have raised and trained many puppies over the past 20 years together and helped others train their dogs too. Our children all love dogs as much as we do! We have two wonderful dogs of our own that are loving and friendly to all dogs & people. They love when we have visiting dogs to play with! We enjoy being outside playing fetch with our pups and going on walks in our pet friendly neighborhood. For years I have taken care of friends and families pets and I feel fortunate now that I’m able to do what I love full time while helping others at the same time. I make a few house visits each week to let my furry friends outside to run and play, feed and give them fresh water.. I offer doggy daycare and boarding at my home where our visiting dogs love to come over and play. They are treated like our own by our entire family. They can hang out on the couch or sleep on the bed, whatever makes them most comfortable! I have several repeat clients who we see often and their fur babes are always as excited to see us as we are to see them! I typically board one household at a time but do make exceptions for repeat clients depending on the circumstances. For this reason I tend to book up quickly and recommend reaching out as soon as you know the dates you need! You can rest easy knowing that your fur babies are in great hands and very well taken care of whenever they are with me.. there is so much love to go around in my home that they are never lonely. I know it’s hard to be away from your dogs when you have to be so I like to ease your mind with updates via texts with pics of your pup being as happy as can be! I have the time and flexibility to care for your pets the way you want them cared for. I not only make sure they are happy, safe and protected, but I make sure they get a lot of love and attention. The dogs I watch are like an extended part of our family and we look forward to spending time with them when they stay with us! All of our visiting dogs enjoy our large fenced in back yard to run around and play and explore.. and when they are inside they can roam safely wherever they want. My home is always pet friendly ready!! I’d love to hear about any special needs your pup may have.. their typical eating, sleeping and potty routine so I’m well prepared. Each pup is unique and special in their own way so we can tailor their care to what your dog needs and enjoys most. During in home visits my little buddies get lots of attention during our time together so they are happy & content when I leave them. We all look forward to our time together! Our visiting pets will spend the day and night with me.. happy & loved! To me that’s how it should be for ALL pets ALL the time! I look forward to getting to know you & your fur babies! 🐶 🐾
Reviews
Shellie was fantastic! She watched our two pups, Wallace and Emmy for a week and did a great job. She sent updates and pictures and responded immediately answering any questions we had. We're pretty picky, they are are babies after all! She took them on walks and they got along wonderfully with her two pups. We would recommend Shellie to everyone!
Lolly has just come back from her first daycare. Shellie is very knowledgeable and attentive to helping her to be acclimated and feel comfortable before her overnight stay. It really helps owners to feel relaxed.
I couldn't rave about Shellie enough and how comfortable I am to leave our Roscoe with her! He loved being in her care.... he left happy and tired! Nice fenced in yard and sweet dogs of her own for him to play with!
We love Shellie. She watches our older dog Lucy and now she is watching Skye too. She is very accommodating and sends pictures and updates. Both my girls love her too which is the real test. Highly recommend.
