“I'm so glad that I chose Shawna to board my precious kitty. From the moment I first contacted her, I felt comfortable trusting her with him, and she went above and beyond to make him comfortable with her and her household. I definitely recommend her to anyone, especially if you have a scaredy cat like mine. Thank you, Shawna, from the both of us!”
About: I absolutely love spending time with dogs and making each walk the highlight of their day! I’m experienced with puppies, seniors, and all energy levels. I focus on safety, consistency, and fun—tailoring every walk to your dog’s needs while giving them the love and attention they deserve.

I follow each owner’s instructions closely to maintain routines, build trust, and ensure happy, stress-free care. 🐶💛

“Olivia did a great job taking care of my cats. She was able to drop in on short notice, which I appreciated. Everything went smoothly, she arrived as planned, fed them, spent some time, sent pics. My older grouchy cat even came out, which means Olivia has a good vi be. She left the place clean. I'm glad I found her and will definitely call on her again.”
