About: Hello! 👋 Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up surrounded by both cats and dogs, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Providing a safe, loving, and happy environment for pets is something I truly enjoy. I currently care for dogs from two different families whenever they travel, and they love staying with me! One of the dogs has special needs and requires extra attention, including meals every four hours, feeding in a harness, and daily medication. I’m honored to be the only person outside of her immediate family that they trust with her care, and I take that responsibility very seriously. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, or simply relax, they’ll be treated like part of the family in my home. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing they’re in great hands. ❤️ Hi! I’m so glad you’re here! I currently work remotely full-time through September. After that, I’ll be a stay-at-home mom, which gives me even more flexibility to provide attentive, personalized care for your pets. On weekdays, I take my child to school in the morning and return home by 8:30 a.m. School pickup is between 2:15–3:00 p.m., and we usually head straight home for homework and our evening routine. This means your pet will spend the majority of the day in a calm, loving home with plenty of attention. While I don’t have a fully fenced yard, I live in a safe, pet-friendly neighborhood that’s perfect for walks, potty breaks, and getting some fresh air. Inside my home, your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I use baby gates to keep certain areas, like my child’s playroom, off-limits, creating a safe and pet-friendly environment throughout the rest of the house.
About: I have owned dogs since was 9/10 years-old, and enjoy playing with dogs and love keeping them occupied espically puppies. For puppies, I like to help potty-train them by offering treats to understand that "outside is where we use the bathroom not inside". I also pay really close attention to due to possible getting into things. I watch out for things that could possibly hurt your dog. As a dog owener myself I will treat your dog as if it was my own dog at home, giving all the attention and play time there hearts desire. I’m currently not working so I am available during select times. I also know what it is like to need a caregiver for your pets while you are away on a business trip or just a quick get away from reality. I live in an apartment complex where everyone keeps to themselves but as for any home I would treat it as if it were my home and how I would want to make sure things are in the right place
About: I have had animals my entire life and caring for them has always been a huge part of who I am. Over the years, I've cared for pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels-from high energy pups who need lots of playtime to older pets who prefer a slower pace and extra TLC. I'm well versed in basic pet first aid and always pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, so you can feel confident your pet is in safe capable hands. I know how important peace of mind is when you're away, and i take that responsibility seriously. At home, I have a very full (and very spoiled) house-one dog, two cats, and a guinea pig- so I'm used to managing different routines personalities and needs. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, or just someone to keep them company, I'll treat them like one of my own-with plenty of attention, care and extra belly rubs! This is currently my main focus so i have a completely open schedule to accommodate pet parents that may need me at all hours based on their needs I have access to several dog friendly parks and trails near my home as well as a crew cab truck so even the largest dogs can enjoy a ride. I also keep a dog seatbelt and pet friendly steps in the truck in case anyone needs a little extra hand getting in

“Shannon was absolutely amazing with my dog while I was away! From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease—and she exceeded every expectation. She sent me tons of adorable videos (which I loved!), kept me updated the whole time, and made sure my pup felt safe, happy, and spoiled. My dog absolutely adored her—tail wags, cuddles, and all! I could tell they formed such a sweet bond, and that means the world to me. Shannon went above and beyond, and I can't thank her enough. If you're lucky enough to book Shannon, do it! She's the best. 🐾💛”

About: With years of experience as a former veterinary technician, I specialize in caring for dogs and cats, including puppies and kittens, as well as senior pets. Now, I run a family-owned pet sitting business, providing expert care across multiple breeds. The daily or weekly routine includes feeding and watering, walks and playtime, and administering medication if necessary, while also handling other duties like cleaning the litter box and providing general companionship. The goal is to maintain consistency for the pet's health and reduce stress. I prioritize establishing and maintaining the pet's routine, which includes feeding, exercise, and medication schedules. I ensure the pet's safety by understanding their behaviors, securing the home to prevent escapes, and having all necessary supplies ready. Throughout the stay, I provide plenty of affection and engagement while communicating regularly with the client.

We had a very last minute booking request and Samantha came through for us! Not only that, but she considered our husky (when we had left late) and offered to stagger the prescheduled walks to balance them out better for him. She'll definitely be my first call in the future.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
