Loving Care for Dogs Big & Small 🐶

I’ve had and loved dogs of all shapes and sizes all my life. I understand that each animal is different and strive to give them each the love and care they need. I make sure to treat every pup how I would want my own fur babies taken care of when I’m away.

Doggy Day Care • Mar 02, 2026

Shelly is a great sitter! Even once I’m in a position for my dog to be taken out of Rover, I still may use Shelly occasionally for a dogs day out! 10/10 highly recommended

Shelly is the best!!!! She was able to accommodate Diggs at the last minute and for that I am so grateful! This is my first time with this sitter and I will be back! She took picks of Diggs having fun to keep me updated! He was very comfortable with her! Thank you Shelly!!!!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I’m a stay at home mom working around my kids school schedule. I’m available for feedings, walks, playtime, medicine administration or anything else your fur babies may need! Although I’m typically able to accommodate in home visits solo, outside of school hours my kids love doing pet visits with me. I’ll always ask permission and/or confirm prior to booking if your request falls outside of my child free availability 😊

Safety, trust & environment

We have 2 small children and 2 medium sized dogs. I do have baby gates to section off areas of the house for the initial introduction, meal and away times. We do ask that our visitors have a good track record with other dogs and kids and that we’re informed of any special precautions (I.e., door reactive) that need to be taken for the safety of everyone. We provide access to our fenced in backyard via dog door- please make us aware if your pup has a history of escape or needs special monitoring for any reason while outdoors.

Pets

A typical day

We have a large variety of toys to play with as well as a safe street for walking the neighborhood to smell all the good smells.

I look forward to getting to know your pet! Please let me know what their normal routine is so I can seamlessly match their needs.
