Shelby grew up in Billings with a lot of animals on small acreage. Taking care of them was very natural to her. No matter if it came to geese, horses, or her dogs and cats, she loved every minute of it and just wanted to make their lives the best they could have. 

After high school, college in Virginia, and spending time in California training horses and eventually working at a small animal rehab facility, she found her passion of rehabilitating animals. This lead her to Veterinary school in Dublin, Ireland and finding a job at a small animal rehab clinic in Boulder, Colorado. Seeing the need for in home rehab brought her back to Montana to start her own mobile business.
