Pet care experience
My name is Shawn and I am a 36yo father of 3 boys and 2 dogs (Max-7yo and Daisy-11yo). I have about 20 years of experience, getting my start during my early teens helping my family foster all sorts of animals. I was your typical self-centered teen back then, but watching my mother's kindness, patience and compassion for the animals she fostered taught me to love them as well; especially both dogs and cats alike. I have worked with many different dog breeds over the years, so dogs of any size and temperament are welcome in my home. My dogs and I welcome your pup as part of our family for as long as you would have my services.
Reviews
He gave me lots of helpful recommendations for socializing my kitty since she’s so shy, also gave me food and treat recommendations. He had my cat in a play pin for her to stay in with all her necessities, which was a really good choice. I appreciate the consistent updates throughout the boarding time as well :)
Shawn took great care of our dogs while we were out of town. They loved running around in the dirt yard, and they were happy and healthy when we picked them up. Shawn always has people talk with him on the phone and do a meet and greet in person beforehand, and I could tell from the first time I talked to him that he takes animal care seriously.
cleo was happy and worn out! i would recommend shawn to anybody looking for a pet sitter!
Shawn is great! Very informative and helpful with my 2 month puppy Polo in such a short time. I’m so thankful for him!

Information Shawn W. would like to know about your pet
Is your dog up to date on all of their shots and vaccinations? Does your dog have any allergies? What is your dog's feeding schedule?
A typical day
My fenced backyard may not be Florida's prettiest but there's plenty of space for your pup to run and play. In fact, I'm proud to call my backyard "The Sandlot", because a well-worn yard is a dog's playground; perfect for running and sunbathing. Your pup will join Max & Daisy's routine of backyard lizard patrol with Max and Playing 'chase' in the backyard with Daisy. When it comes to toys, Daisy loves to play 'follow the leader' and Max's favorite game is 'tug of war'.
