Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Shelly. I am a full-time PhD student at NC State and am looking for something to do on the side! What better way than to help take care of other people's dogs? I currently do not have a dog (need to find a way to get in my dog fix!), but I have grown up around dogs my entire life, mostly labs. I also just spent a year living with two Alaskan Malamutes that I miss dearly and helped take care of. You will never have to worry if your animals are in good hands when they are with me; I will treat them all as I would my own! You'll be sure to get plenty of updates from me whenever your animals are in my care whether its house sitting, visits, or dog walks. I look forward to meeting your furry friends (and you)! :)

Shelly did a great job with my two kittens. She followed the instructions left and sent great pictures of playing with the kitties. Cats seemed plenty happy when I returned home. Would definitely recommend her services.

Shelly was wonderful! We needed a last-minute sitter for our pups, and she accepted right away. Since we’re not from the area, we were a bit nervous about leaving them with someone new, but Shelly immediately put us at ease. We’re so grateful for her help!
