About: I’m a proud dog mom to two pups—one full of energy and the other a total couch potato—so I’m used to handling different personalities! I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I treat every pet I care for like my own. I’m currently studying online for my real estate license, so my schedule is super flexible! I can easily adjust my day to fit your pet’s needs—whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else—that’s why I prioritize communication and trust. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, and I’m happy to accommodate any special requests or needs your pet may have.

“Shannon did a wonderful job with Posie. Posie has some anxiety issues and Shannon was able to handle them without a fuss. She arrived early and stayed later than I anticipated. She also provided updates on Posie as well as pictures which I really appreciated. I will be using Shannon as my go to dog sitter from here on out. I just hope she’s available because her rates are probably too low for the services she provided.”
