About: Hi, I'm Shannon and I petsit with my husband, Steve. We have both grown up with dogs and have been devoted pet parents for over a decade. We’ve cared for everything from mischievous puppies to wise old seniors who needed daily medications and extra TLC. Whether your dog needs a slow stroll, a game of fetch, or a quiet lap to nap on, we’re here to make them feel at home. Our own pups—Louie and Bess—are friendly, playful, and used to sharing their space. We treat every dog like they’re part of the family (and yes, we talk to them in silly voices). Pet care is our routine! Either Steve or I will be home full time when your dog is with us, so they’ll get plenty of attention, outdoor breaks, and snuggles throughout the day. Our dogs love their daily walks, and visiting the dog park (with your permission) is always a highlight. Between window watching, sunbathing, and playtime, your pup will be enjoying a mini vacation of their own—while you’re off on yours. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. At our home, pups are never left alone—either Steve or I will always be here to supervise, cuddle, and play. We have a securely fenced yard (6 foot privacy fence) for safe outdoor time and a spacious first floor where the dogs can relax, play, and snooze in the sun. If your dog needs medication, special feeding, or just a little extra love—we’ve got it covered. You can enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and very loved.

“Alexa was amazing with Tucker, who can sometimes be a bit much on the leash! She made me feel comfortable and I will be using her again!”


“Dax had so much fun with Ella!! She came in clutch last minute!!”


“Emily did an outstanding job caring for my very anxious dog, providing her with the patience and reassurance she needed. Her reliability and clear communication throughout the entire process made everything so much easier for me. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dependable and attentive dog sitter!”
