About Shelby
Hi 👋🏼 I’m Shelby.

I love dogs and will look after your little mate as if they were my own. Keep reading below 🐶

WHY YOU SHOULD BOOK WITH ME:
I have a safe and fenced paved courtyard (see photo) and am very close to Alma Park and St Kilda Botanical Gardens for longer leg stretches. Your pets can hang out inside the house and outside - I have cooling for hot days and heating to keep them cosy on cold days. I will play with your pets to entertain them and take them on 1-2 walks per day depending on what they need (included in price).

My partner and I work hybrid so can arrange to be home for the day when needed.

HOW IT WORKS:
-- Pet Hosting: Your pet stays at my home overnight. Pick up time should be prior to / the same time as drop off time (eg. If you drop your pet off at 10am, the pick up time at the end of the stay should be 10am or earlier). Otherwise a $20 surcharge will apply.
-- Pet Sitting: I stay at your home overnight. Surcharge applies as above if a late stay is required.
-- Day Care: Your pet hangs out with me for up to 10 hours, usually drop off around 7-9am pick up 5-7pm.
-- House Visiting: I will go to your home for approximately 30mins per pet. I will make sure that bowls are clean and fresh food and water is supplied. I will clean out litter trays and any messes and make sure your pets are comfortable and cosy and will spend time giving them pats and playing to give them some socialising time while you are away. If your pet requires extra attention I am flexible and happy to discuss - I want to make sure your pet is cared for in a way they are used to!
***I am happy to commute around the St Kilda area for walking/house sitting/visiting services.

Once you message, I will organise a meet and greet either virtually or around the neighbourhood to ensure your pet and I are a good fit.

Please note, I will ask you to supply the regular items your dog requires for their stay to ensure they are as comfortable as possible.

FURTHER INFO ON RATES:
-- Public Holiday/Long Weekend rates apply.
-- $20 surcharge will be added to overnight stays with a late pick up time (see above).
-- Puppy surcharge $15/night applies & should be added at the time of booking.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions 😄

Shelby has always been amazing with our dog Bailey. She sends us pictures during the day which is comforting and we can tell that Bailey loves staying with her. We’ll definitely use Shelby to pet sit our dog in the future.
