Safety, trust & environment

No overnight stays at my home as I do not have a fenced in yard. I also have a dog, Lacee Loo, who is high anxiety and is not welcoming to other animals inside her home. I am also not available for overnight stays at your home as I would need to find care for Lacee. However, I can make myself available to drop in each day/evening as often as is needed.

Information Shelly U. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs so I can provide the best possible care. Would also like to know if they have any anxiety issues with people or other animals outside the home.

A typical day

I like to get the pets outside for several walks a day as weather permits. So my service would include lots of walking, playing and lots of love. I am willing to take them to a local park for walks and playtime.

Shelly is an amazing pet care sitter. Daily she went above and beyond caring for our 2 cats. We were many miles away and we were confident the cats would receive awesome care! We'll book Shelly again!!

If I could leave Shelly a 10 out of 5 star ⭐ review, I certainly would! She's great with all our fur family, an excellent communicator, sends great pictures and notes to keep you posted, spends time getting to know the family, is quick on her feet and can use common sense and problem solving techniques without having to be hand held. We trust her implicitly and will sincerely miss her after our move.

As usual, Shelly went above and beyond in helping out our family. Our fur babies trust her, even our semi feral kitty who only lets us pet her, made an appearance! Animals instinctively know a wonderful and caring person when they meet them and Shelly is one of the best! We highly recommend her!

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.
