Lover of all animals big and small
Pet care experience
I have been a Veterinary Technician for 16 years in both general practice and emergency medicine. I also own dogs, cats, and exotics. My experience sets me apart because I have the skill set to handle sick animals or those with chronic diseases, and know what signs and symptoms to look out for if they are not feeling well. I am also skilled at giving any type of medication, injections included. I treat every animal I come in contact with like they are my own. Willing to work with exotics or non-conventional pets. Please message me with any questions you may have and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. I look forward to meeting you and your furkids. PS- expect to be spammed with cute photos of your pets while you're away.
Reviews
Shey took excellent care of our dog while we were away on vacation! She walked him close to the same time every day and gave us daily feedback on how he was doing.
Shey was great at communicating with us and taking care of our new puppy while we were in South Dakota on vacation! She sent adorable pictures and did a great job of making me feel at ease and keeping me up to date on everything our pup did while she was there! Our first rover.com experience but likely not our last!
Shey was wonderful with our five high-maintenance kitties! We have one that needs medicine each night and tends to fight it, but Shey was made sure he got it each night. We have one that likes to hide and Shey took the time to find her each time she stopped by. She also took the time to play with our kitties while she was visiting. I would absolutely recommend her!
Shey is awesome! She is very responsive and provided detailed updates and pictures of our two pups while we were away. Based on the pictures and updates, it was clear our dogs absolutely loved Shey. We definitely would recommend Shey to anyone and absolutely would use her again. Thanks Shey!

Safety, trust & environment
I will always do everything I can to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. We will play, take long walks, and get some serious snuggles in during my visits. If your pet is shy or fearful, I use my knowledge from the veterinary world to work with them and help them come out of their shell and be less stressed. I always have the pets' best interest at heart.
Information Shey K. would like to know about your pet
Do they have any aggressive behaviors such as food or toy aggression. I want to make our visits as enjoyable as possible, so the more information about your pet the better.
A typical day
With dogs, I love taking them for long walks and playing with their toys. For cats, I'll usually bring along some toys to keep them active and engaged.

I currently work part time at an animal clinic and am a stay at home mom. My schedule is relatively flexible and am often able to help with last minute requests. Unfortunately, I am unable to accept weekly recurring requests at this time.
