Availability
As I mentioned before, I work from home, so my schedule is pretty open. Also my retired mother now lives with me and she’s as big of an animal lover as me. She and my dog are obsessed with each other, so she’ll help me too…and love doing it.

Safety, trust & environment
I take my dog on daily car rides to open, but away from traffic areas to run around and get her sniffs in. I can do they same for your dogs, but we can discuss what you prefer and of course what types of activities suit your dogs personality. But if boarding or day care, I can walk to a nearby park or neighborhood, many times…and can do several quick tinkles near the house in between walks for younger or older dogs if necessary.

A typical day
For my own dog, he goes in the car with me at least once a day. He loves to go on quick errands and wait in the car. I know not everyone is comfortable with that and of course I will be meticulous with your specific instructions. I also take him on 2 leisurely walks everyday and a few short ones just to drain his bladder. My mother helps me out when I crunched for time. When I can’t take in on longer errands, in stays in a cozy kennel with all his toys and something to chew on and the tv left on to make sure he’s not bored.

Pet care experience
A little about myself: I’ve had a special love for animals since I was a child. I remember my best friend and I used to daydream about rescuing animals from the streets….well, that sort of came true. I’ve come across a squirrel that fell out of a tree with spinal injury that I rushed to an animal hospital where unfortunately had to be euthanized, same with several opossums that got hit by cars, even a pigeon that was dazed and confused on an underpass. Picked it up and rushed to an animal hospital where awaiting a rehabber. When I see an animal in need I literally can’t help myself and just spring into action. My senior dog, Pebbles was the puppy from a dog I rescued off the street. Didn’t even know she was pregnant till she started giving birth. Her mother died shortly after giving birth from heart failure. She’s now a senior and diabetic who gets 2 insulin shots a day. So I am able to do the same for your diabetic pet if necessary. I am also comfortable giving subcutaneous fluids to dogs and cats…as long as they are comfortable with me.😅 My cat Raine, was a young neighborhood cat who I saw one night outside my house, I spoke to her, as you do, and she walked up to me with no tail, and broken 'wrist' and the sweetest meows I ever heard. I went to get food which she inhaled and that was it, she was mine. She didn’t give me much choice. She meowed outside my door until I made a deal with her. I told her I’d let her in, if she let me give her a bath. I prepared the bath, went to get her and slowly eased her in…and she purred the whole time. PURRED. She has been my sweet little Rainecloud ever since. My cat Sierra and my other dog, Zoe passed away last year. 💔💔 I know when I travel, the most stressful part is who’s going to watch my babies? Having that peace of mind that not only will they have their basic needs met, but that someone will play with and cuddle them and know that it will be a stressful time for them to have their people away for extended periods of time. Whether the are staying with me or me with them, I will respect your privacy and care for you furry family members, as I do my own.
Reviews
Sheila was fantastic! She was extremely communicative while we were away. We felt our fur babies were in great hands which allowed us to fully relax while on vacation.
Shiela did an excellent job caring for our dog and cat. We were pleased with her care and attention she gave our pets as well as her communication with us!
Sheila is a dream. She cat sat my two boys for a few days while I was out of town on business. She took excellent care and made sure they were well fed and happy while I was away. A++!!
I would definitely use her again whenever I’m out of town (Actually, this is our 3rd time) ! She takes such good care of Acorn. Thank you, Shiela!
