The best things in life are furry

Pet care experience

I am currently a stay at home mom, pet sitter and dog walker in The N Austin-Round Rock area. I would love to take care of your furry family while you are away, whether you're traveling. need drop in visits while you're at work or a dog walk anytime. My hours are currently very flexible, I'm available from 9 am until sunset. I have owned dogs and cats my entire life, I love all animals, any size, any breeds. I started pet sitting and dog walking for friends and family over 20 years ago. I currently have a dog that I adopted 4 years ago and 2 adopted kitties. Keeping your animals safe and happy during our visits and on walks is my top priority. I will care for your pets as if they were my own with lots of love, attention, hugs and snuggles. I have walked dogs on demand with another company and have over 75 reviews, all 5 star. You can relax knowing your pets are in good hands. I provide updates and photos with every visit, also videos at your request.

Shelley was wonderful with our 2 cats and made sure they were well taken care of while we were out of town. She even returned to the house as a courtesy to make sure they had enough water in their water fountains to last until we got back. She sent us pictures and updates and was very reliable and professional. We will definitely contact Shelley to use her again in the future!

Shelly is AMAZING! This is the first time we have had a stranger check in and walk Bailey, and she was so understanding of all our questions. She even took (awesome) pictures of bailey while they were on their walks. I can’t say enough great things about Shelly! I highly recommend her if you need someone to come check in on your pup ❤️

Information Shelly B. would like to know about your pet

If I'm walking your dog, please let me if he/she has any triggers, are they reactive with other dogs or people? Do they try to chase squirrels or birds? It's important that a dog I take care of, is not aggressive towards people or other dogs if we are out walking, However, some dogs are reactive and non aggressive, please let me know if this is the case, I have a non aggressive reactive dog of my own. I can not work with an aggressive dog who bites or tries to attack other dogs (if out walking) or has fear aggression towards humans. I am not trainer, so I'm not qualified to handle this kind of aggression. Please let me know if you dogs or cats have any food allergies. I have no breed restrictions, I love all dogs and cats!

A typical day

On walks: I'll take you dog on an adventure around the neighborhood or to a nearby park within walking distance if preferred. For safety reasons your dog will have to remain on leash while we are on walks. If your dog prefers to just run around in your fenced in yard, we can go out and play, giving your dog a chance to stretch their legs and go potty. Your dog will get lots of attention and exercise during my visit, treats if desired and fresh water before I leave. Pet Sitting: I will feed all pets according to your instruction. Make sure they have fresh water and food. Litter boxes will be scooped daily. I'll alternate lights, open and close blinds, bring in packages and newspapers to make sure it always looks like someone is home. I will also put your trash out if I'm sitting during trash day. These things will help keep your home looking lived in while you are away. Your cats and dogs will get lots of attention, playing time and free hugs! You can enjoy your vacation knowing your pets are in good hands.
