About: With a lifetime of experience caring for various types of pets, including cats, dogs, and birds, I am well-equipped to provide excellent pet care. My one year old dog is my pride and joy, and I have also cared for a six year old German shepherd mix and a quaker parrot named Tito. Friends and family have entrusted me with the care of their pets for years, relying on my responsible and loving nature to ensure their well-being in times of need. I am dedicated, trustworthy, and passionate about providing the best possible care for all furry and feathered friends. As a teacher with summers off, I have the flexibility and availability to dedicate my time to caring for others' pets. With my regular job on hold during the summer months, I can commit to providing reliable and attentive pet care services on most days. I value this opportunity to extend my passion for nurturing and teaching to the well-being of beloved pets, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve while their owners are away. When caring for pets in the client's home, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment for the animals while their owners are away. I follow the established routines and instructions provided by the pet owners, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special requirements such as medication administration. I ensure the pets feel safe and secure in their own surroundings by providing them with companionship, playtime, and attention to keep them happy and engaged. Additionally, I maintain open communication with the pet owners to provide updates on their furry friends and address any concerns promptly. By offering personalized care in the client's home, I aim to provide peace of mind to pet owners knowing their beloved animals are in good hands while they are away.

About: Fully insured through PCI and only one pup family at a time! Very personal experience at my home caring for your fur baby! Stay at home mom that treats your pup as a member of our family. Constant care and updates offered. Schedule sent every night of our day together and they will have a companion for their entire stay. Had a family pet for 18 years and two rescues since then. I’ve worked in children’s daycare and was a nanny for a year as well. I have house sat dogs, rabbits, and guinea pigs too. My husband and two young boys keep your pet entertained and happy during their time with us and will receive constant attention as well. During your pet’s stay they will choose where they’d like to sleep and feel genuinely comfortable. I really do enjoy making your pup happy. Dogs give us everything they have and I love giving as much as I can back to them! No better love than from an animal. I stay at home now and have a fully fenced yard. Don’t have a dog of my own at the moment mainly because my husband and I are trying to find the right rescue for us! I have plenty of time for your pup and will keep you updated through each step of our day night together! Fully fenced yard. Daily walks as well. I have a large soft play pen available if my client feels more comfortable keeping their dog gated in. Otherwise we can set up their toys, bed, feeding area anywhere the animals feel most happy. If pup is crate trained we have our own here (one small size and one extra large) but only if the owner prefers otherwise they are free to roam.

I don’t just care for animals—I connect with them, and with you, the people who love them. 💼 What Sets Me Apart: - Background in veterinary care = attention to health & safety - Decades of pet parenting & client care experience - Empathetic approach that adapts to your pet’s unique personality - Reliable, flexible, and communicative—your peace of mind is my priority 🗓️ My Availability: - Wednesday–Saturday: Flexible scheduling throughout the day - Sunday–Tuesday: Available with at least one week's notice - Urgent care or late-night walks (after 9:30 PM): Same-day requests welcome Your pet will be cared for as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, and a whole lot of heart.

Shannen F.
Star Sitter

“There is nobody I could recommend more for a job being a caregiver to pets than Shannen. Since I’ve known her, she’s always been an animal lover. I have seen first hand the affection she shows towards all animals. Her family has always had a dog, and she was the main caregiver. She would dogsit for our old tenant on a daily basis when he would go to work. Shannen is also very active in the community, volunteering to work with children through the PAL (Police Athletic League). Having a wide open schedule keeps her free throughout the day to stay both active and focused. We had a Guinea pig, and it lived a life of luxury thanks to the time and care Shannen would give to him.”
