Highlights
Pet care experience
🐶🐱❤️
I have years of experience with dogs and cats - both raising them and caring for them. Every pet has their own unique personality and needs, and I’ll do whatever it takes to make sure they’re safe, happy, and taken care of. Currently I work remotely - my schedule is super flexible and I’m able to accommodate last minute requests as well as any unique schedules for your pup or kitty. I’m also an ex-college athlete who loves staying active, so if your pup is extra energetic or a larger breed, I’m happy to book long walks and make sure they get their much needed exercise.

Safety, trust & environment
I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routines closely: mealtimes, playtime, litter or potty breaks, and any special instructions. I’m mindful of each animal’s personality and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their space. I always leave the home clean and secure, and I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and check-ins so you can feel at ease while you’re away
Ratings and reviews
Shirley is amazing! She is so responsive, cares for my dog like her own. Will continue to rebook through her.
Shirley was a wonderful sitter! Sent great photos and updates multiple times a day, and both of my pets seemed so happy—even our cat, who is usually shy and hides from sitters, spent her weekend out and about in the living room. Would definitely ask her to care for our girls again!
Shirley was absolutely wonderful to work with! We had a meet and greet prior to my trip and Moses loved her immediately. Her calm confidence was evidence my dog was gonna be in good hands. She is so thoughtful and considerate, providing me morning and evening updates which gave me such peace and assurance while I was away. I came home to a very happy dog and a clean apartment. I would definitely rebook :)
Shirley has done a full week of drop ins for Phifer and was patient with my requests, highly recommend. Would definitely book again!
Shirley followed my instructions and took care of Phifer exactly as I asked. Always reliable! Will book again.
Came home to happy and healthy kitties!
