About: I've had all sorts of pets growing up. I do have medical training and can handle difficult situations. I currently have two dogs that are rescues and a cat that was abandoned at one day old that I hand raised. My younger dog has an autoimmune disease so I am well practiced on giving medications. Thank you. I can schedule my own hours at my job so I'm pretty flexible on when I can be available. I am available weekends usually with no problems. I am unable to bring animals to my home due to renting. I am able to house sit or walk dogs only at this time.

“We were very pleased with Destanee and will definitely use her again when we need a sitter for our boy! She sent us pics and let us know he was happy and doing fine, which made our time away more enjoyable for us!”


“Kayla was professional, prompt, and courteous. She stayed in our home four nights taking care of our 10 week old Lab puppy. Not an easy assignment. Kayla followed his busy schedule and took amazing care of him. We would be thrilled to use her again!”


“Makayla stayed at our home & watched our three dogs for a weekend. We were so nervous but it went very smoothly! Makayla was easy to communicate with, sent us lots of pictures/messages with updates on our fur babies! We will definitely keep her in mind for next time😊”


About: I worked as a veterinary technician for 6 years before becoming a stay at home mom. Other than my kids, my passion is animals! I am proficient in animal handling, care, and medication management. Your fur baby will be happy, well cared for, and safe with me! I am currently a stay at home mom of 3 littles. We are huge animal lovers! I am dedicated to taking care of everyone’s needs. So you tell me what the baby needs and I will be sure to be there for them. We do not have any weekly engagements that last more than 1 hour, so your fur baby will never be alone. I have a 2 acre property, un fenced. So your pet will have plenty of space to run and play. I also live two blocks away from a local park so walks are a definite fun bonus. I allow animals on furniture and beds. If that is what they are used to. Additionaly I have an extra crate in our home in case your baby needs to be crate trained.

“Shania was great! She sent me pictures everyday and told me how Leia was doing. She seemed to have a great time with Shania and her daughter. If I need a sitter again, she is my choice! Thanks so much”
