Experienced dog walker
Pet care experience
I've had many years of experience walking dogs, as well as caring for my own. My dog is 17, so I am familiar with the needs of a puppy or a senior dog.
Reviews
Shirley came to help us in a very last minute pinch. She followed directions perfectly and proved to be extremely trustworthy. Would book her again!
Shirley is very reliable and communicative! we very much appreciate her walking our senior deaf dog when our schedules are in disarray.
My dog, Mavi, is a rescue with a lot of anxiety and is fearful of most people. It's taken a really long time for him to get comfortable having other people around, and I've been particular about who to bring into his life. This is the longest I've been away from him, and I was really nervous about it, but Shirley is amazing. I'm so thankful to have met her, because Mavi's warmed up to her fairly quickly and she's been a gem of a sitter. She's kind, thoughtful, and patient. She provided a lot of reassurance while I was away. She stays in constant contact and provides regular updates. I felt incredibly safe, comfortable, and rest assured having her drop by my home and check in on Mavi. As an added bonus, there were a couple of random things that happened to happen while I was away (minor but weird water leak and contractors stopping by to speak with me), but Shirley handled all this professionally. She promptly let me know of these out-of-the-ordinary occurrences when she could've easily ignored them. As a homeowner, I really appreciated her communicating these instances that helped me take action in resolving any issues. Can't say enough great things about Shirley as a sitter and a human being. I'm so grateful to have her as Mavi's sitter now. =)
Shirley was super efficient and kind- appreciate her coming through pretty last minute for a drop in for our senior rescue pitbull mix who is also deaf :) would definitely hire again
