Grace was a new Rover for us and she was great! We did a meet-and-greet ahead of time and I could tell she would make sure our fur-baby would be happy. Her home is set up for pets to hang out and her yard is fenced. She sent me a photo every couple days and I could tell that Romeo was right at home. We will use Grace again if we need help.

Once again, Nancy was so kind and so accommodating! She took in a second dog, who has some issues, and once again provided stellar care. I love that I can have complete trust, and know my dogs are safe AND happy!

Mike and Niki were SO good to our Raven girl! It was evident that they loved and cared for her like she was their own. We appreciated all of the picture updates throughout the weekend! We could see how much Raven enjoyed to be around them, and we think she was a bit sad to leave them! She was spoiled with walks, hikes, and lots of play time! Thanks again for everything, Mike and Niki! We will hands down book again if we find ourselves in the area!

About: Lifelong animal experience – I’ve cared for animals my entire life, not just as a job but as a way of life. • Real dog-owner perspective – With 2 dogs of my own, I understand routines, energy levels, training reinforcement, and emotional needs. • Calm, patient care – Great for shy, anxious, senior, or high-energy dogs who need consistency and understanding. • Individualized attention – I don’t do “one-size-fits-all” care. Walks, play, feeding, and downtime are tailored to your dog. • Trust & reliability – I show up on time, follow instructions closely, and communicate clearly so you can relax while you’re away. • Home-style love – Your dog is treated like family, not a booking. Hi! I’m Shelbie, a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all personalities. I live in a peaceful rural area with plenty of space for play, walks, and safe adventures. Your furry friend will get the love, attention, and care they deserve while you’re away! Dog Boarding (In My Home – Female Dogs Only) For the safety and comfort of all pets in my care, I only board female dogs. My Australian Shepherd has a strong personality, and keeping our home harmonious means I cannot accept male dogs. Female pups are always welcome, and they’ll receive lots of love, playtime, and cuddles in a safe, home environment. I work full-time from 8–5, but I’m happy to stop by during my lunch break for local drop-ins to take your sweet guy or girl out for a potty break, walk, or some love. I’m available after 5 PM, all day on Wednesdays, and all weekends. I’m reliable, flexible, and always happy to work with your pet’s routine whenever possible. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of love—whether in my home or yours. While I don’t have a yard yet, I live close to a dog park and provide plenty of walks, playtime, and mental stimulation to keep dogs happy and exercised. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, play, and downtime. Safety and comfort always come first, and I make sure pets get individual attention, affection, and enrichment. In your home, I respect your space while ensuring your pet feels secure and relaxed in their familiar environment. I’m attentive, reliable, and treat every pet as if they were my own.

About: I am a huge dog lover<3 Caring for them is so rewarding for me. Learning their unique personalities and daily routines brings so much joy! I have cared for two Bichons for the past seventeen years. Since they both have now crossed over the rainbow bridge I am looking for a way to help others out... whether it is to take their dog for a walk during the week while they are at work or to care for them while their owners are traveling. I am mature and responsible... caring and loving your dog as much as you do. I have a special place in my heart for Senior dogs... my senior Bichon gave me so much love and caring experiences to share with others<3

About: I've had dogs in the house since I was a little girl! My boys really love dogs and have just as much energy! I want your pet to leave happy and ready to come back again!

About: I have taken care of or been in a household with animals since I was a little girl. I grew up on a farm, and helped with animals in that area as well. I have been a dog sitter in the past for a family and it went really well! I love to be around animals, and even have two cats of my own and two family dogs. I am willing to provide in home boarding care at your place or mine and can accommodate to whatever makes you feel the most comfortable while you are away! I am currently studying for my boards, and plan to move to FL after the next few months, but within that time I am available any time/day of the week to care for your fur babies! I have the availability to crate your pet(s) if needed. I am currently living at home with my parents, which we have an outdoor and indoor space pets can go without being an issue. We do not have a fenced in yard, but we do live out in the country where your dog(s) can run safely or on a leash- to your preference. I am also able to come and care for your pet within your home as well if that makes you (and your pet) feel more comfortable!
