About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my wide experience with a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, hamsters, a rat, and even a parrot. I’ve worked with pets of all ages and temperaments, so I’m adaptable and ready for any challenge, whether it’s energetic puppies or senior pets needing extra care. I understand how to balance play, rest, and special needs to ensure your pets feel comfortable and happy. My goal is always to make their day (and yours) as stress-free as possible. In my life, I used to have one dog, three cats, two rats and two hamster, also one parrot, so I’m really in love with pets and I always feel what they need. I’m here for make your day easy and free and get the job which also interesting and nice for me. When caring for pets, safety and trust are my top priorities. In my home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment where animals feel secure and comfortable. I make sure all spaces are safe, free from hazards, and suited to each pet’s needs. In my client’s home, I respect their routines and keep their pets in a familiar, stress-free environment. I always build trust with both the pets and owners, ensuring that pets are cared for with love, attention, and the highest safety standards.

Thank you, Shannon, for treating Honey like one of your own—we couldn’t have asked for more!”
