At this time I am "semi" retired so this is the perfect opportunity for me to do something close to my heart and love. I have a lot of time on my hands to care for other peoples babies while they're on vacation or work. I've always wanted to do something that included animals and this would be awesome!

Safety, trust & environment

Every pet would be unique depending on what the client expected. Respect for both the clients home and pet would be top priority. I'm there for the needs of both. Compassion and love is what I intend on delivering and follow clients instructions on what they expect and want from me.

Information Shelly R. would like to know about your pet

Any and all special needs and or concerns regarding their pet. I will comply with whatever is needed to keep their pet happy, healthy and safe!

A typical day

Being in Texas it's important to be aware of the heat. Mornings will be much more active than afternoon. If the dog park is acceptable, I have one close to where I live. We can still play tug-of-war and fetch inside if allowable. Lots of pets and belly rubs.

Pets

I’m a lover of all criiters!

Pet care experience

Having a love for all animals I will care for them with love and respect. I have 3 dogs of my own and I know how important it is to have someone with the same thoughts and care as myself to look after your loved ones. This is my introduction into the pet care “services” and looking forward to hopefully being a candidate to be able to do this, giving peace of mind to people who can’t always get home early enough to get that walk in or those who just want things checked on and the babies cared for while they’re away for what ever reason. I have extra time that they may not have so I’m willing to love on them until they can

Shelly went above and beyond this treacherous weekend to take care of my pets. She gave us the peace of mind knowing our pets were taken care of. Thank you again. Highly recommended.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
