I call Shirley the pet whisperer. We have 2 cats. One was a feral kitten and as an adult, is very skiddish. The other is a very vocal, crabby old lady that we named Millie. I warned Shirley before she met them. Shirley approached the cranky girl with a slow, gentle, quiet voice. She was not pushy. She tried again a bit later and was able to pet her. By the end of the weekend, Shirley had Millie sitting on her lap soaking up the loves. Other than my husband and I, no one has ever been able to accomplish this with Millie. I was truly amazed and would recommend Shirley's services to any one looking to have someone take special care of there pet. She is amazing!

Let me know any special needs your pet has, what he likes, doesn’t like and what is expected from me. I also need to know how I can reach you if needed.
