“Shane was terrific! He followed all the directions and took my dog for the full hour walk, which is not always true of other people. I plan to using him for all of my future dog needs, as well as my cat needs. He is punctual, friendly, and professional.👏👏👏”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with animals. I grew up in a house with four dogs, and I currently care for my horse, rabbit, and cat—so I truly understand the love and attention pets need. I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and temperaments, and I always treat them like family. Pet care fits really naturally into my weekly routine. I’m a student at ETSU, and since I don’t have a traditional job right now, I have a pretty flexible schedule. That means I have time during the day for walks, visits, and spending real quality time with pets. I love being able to balance my studies with something that brings me joy and caring for animals does exactly that! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always focus on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding times, walks, play, and any special instructions like medications or favorite toys. I give lots of attention and affection, and I make sure they feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I also keep in touch with updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I've been in love with animals since I was young, and I have worked with dogs with special needs such as previously abused dogs and reactive dogs. I'm still in school and work a part time job, so breaks during the day are a bit harder for me some days, but on others I'm mostly free! I will happily follow any routine you have set in place so long as I am shown prior to petsitting, and I'll gladly take your pup/cat on adventures (hikes, swimming, dog parks, etc.) if you give me permission!

Catherine B.
“Cat is amazing! I would trust her with Chuck(2yr old Doberman) who is my life anytime for any amount of time. I was at the river Chuck was about 6 months old. He misjudged the water level and found himself a little more underwater that he wanted to be. He made it to a rock and would not budge. Cat came along she did not hesitate. She swam over to him and taking time and care she calmed him down and eventually he followed her back to land where her sweetheart of a dog was waiting to welcome him back and play!!!! She is my hero. She saved the day!!!!”
