I have known Shelly for over 15 years and she has cared for our chihuahuas and cats several times. She is extremely responsive to all their specific needs and pays attention to the details of each pet. As an example, my dogs had individual dietary needs that she addressed, and one of my cats needed insulin shots that she administered. She provides updates throughout her pet-sitting that evidences they are well cared for and loved. Pets gravitate towards her. My two current chihuahuas are not always a fan of people coming in to their domain, but whenever Shelly comes over to visit, there are happy tail-wags, kisses and exposed bellies for belly rubs. I have seen her with her own pets, and they are healthy and happy dogs that get the proper nutrition, care, attention and love you would expect from a responsible pet owner.

Shelly has petsat for my sweet Winnie many times over the past several years, and I always know she's going to be well cared for and given lots of love. Winnie is always SO excited when I drop her off! Shelly does a great job of meeting Winnie's needs, even when they're a little complicated (with a prescription diet and supplements). She keeps me updated about how my pup is doing while I'm missing her! I would highly recommend Shelly's petsitting/caregiving to anyone who wants to be sure their pet will be in good hands, and I'm very grateful for all the times she's taken care of my pup while I'm away.
