I could be your dog helper!

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs, they have always been a part of my life. Taking care of them and connecting to animals comes naturally to me. Hopefully I can help you take care of your pet!

Shirley was the perfect dog-sitter! She took initiative connecting with me in a timely manner, updated me with comments and pics when she was with my dog, and was super pleasant overall! Will definitely be asking for her help again :) Thank you, Shirley!

Our skittish girl Millie did absolutely great with Shirley. We appreciated the photos and updates that Shirley sent -- it was very reassuring. We wouldn't hesitate to hire Shirley again.

Shirley is a great caretaker for dogs. Good communication, thoughtful, and trustworthy. She will treat your dog like her own. I would recommend her to anyone.

Shirley has loved dogs ever since I’ve known her. She is always so sweet and loving to my dog when she visits, and she makes sure he knows he’s a good boy. I’ve also seen Shirley with her own dog and she is amazing - she’s taught her pup tricks, good behavior, and takes great care of her. Shirley would be a great pick if you’re looking for someone to take care of your fur baby!

Safety, trust & environment

I walk my own dog with a leash, am mindful of who else is around me. I don’t put my dog and myself in dangerous situations. My dog gets regular check ups from the vet, I check her poo even though it’s gross to make sure things look right, she’s fed and walked on a regular schedule. If your dog is in my hands I will bring all my love and standards for pet care and follow your guidelines.

Information Shirley W. would like to know about your pet

Medication, dietary restrictions, house rules for your dog( just because I give my dog bits of my chicken nuggets doesn’t mean you do) temperament, behavioral issues, feeding schedule, etc

A typical day

Hang out, head scratches, paw shakes, walks. My favorite places to walk my dog are Menomonee Parkway, Bender Park, Grant Park. Or just around the neighborhood.
