Hey y’all, I'm Sky! My primary role at Delifurry is driving, helping to get all our furry companions to their destinations which is where I've had the pleasure of meeting many of you during our pet transports. I also play a part in coordinating and scheduling trips for those I’ve only spoke with over the phone. For those I haven’t met yet, here’s a bit about me.

I grew up in a very small town, Blue Ridge, Texas, where I ran around my family’s land surrounded by cattle, goats, sheep, pigs, horses and dogs. Back then, I never imagined that animals, which felt like just another part of rural life, would play such a pivotal role in my future. The constant here though was the work ethic formed being around animals as we all know what it can be like on a small farm/ranch.

I moved to Royse City for high school which is where I met Dylan. Our relationship started with baseball and gradually moved to our shared work ethic and desire to do more with our time. Part of that came from his mom, Darla relaying her knowledge and passion to us in helping to get her beloved pets to their new homes in instances it worked out.


Again, little did I know how this simple desire to be active and involved with an underlying passion for entrepreneurship would yet set the stage for my future. After high school, I went to college at Texas Tech with a major in Economics. Following graduation I dove head first into the world of construction, managing projects and learning the ropes of business. It was a job I had during school to help pay the bills that turned into a promising career.

The real turning point for me and animals though came on my 21st birthday when I met my own very first pup, Colt. He opened my eyes to the profound bond we share with animals and how much there is to learn on a daily basis being with them. This experience was a game-changer and helped guide me towards my true passions.

Delifurry started from a shared dream and a recognized need for reliable, caring pet transport from the most loving animal family I’ve had the pleasure to be around. Going full-time with Delifurry in 2021 was a leap of faith for Dylan. It’s been an incredible journey, filled with both challenges and triumphs but very fast paced. In May of 2022, I left an amazing company with an awesome team and future to join forces with my best friend and business partner Dylan to help this shared dream become reality.

Together, we're doing more than just running a business; we're impacting lives, one pet transport at a time. Your trust in us with your cherished pets means the world. Here’s to many more years of making a difference in the lives of animals and their families!
