Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets as respectfully and diligently as I’m able whether it’s in my own home or others. I know how nerve wracking it can be having strangers in your home and with your babies, so I try to be as communicative and up front as possible about everything. Happy to take trash, water plants, or get your mail as well if needed.

Information Shaine G. would like to know about your pet

I have worked most of my life with animals, especially dogs, and know how sensitive they can be. I know some dogs take more time and work to be comfortable and I strive to do that for every client. I have worked in the past with many fearful and reactive dogs and will always do my best to make things as comfortable and safe as possible for them and me, so love to know even the littlest things that bother them!

A typical day

I know every pet is different, so it’s whatever their energy level is up for! Some require more playtime and mental stimulation while others need more down time. Always down for a good walk or tug session, or just throwing the ball around!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Shaine and for as long as I can remember I’ve had dogs running underfoot. My mother used to rescue pit bulls when I was younger so I’ve grown up with the experience of having to take care of shy and often misunderstood dogs. All thoroughout both my highschool and college years I have walked and house sat for pets as a side job because I’ve always felt fufilled being able to take care of them. My love for animals kept growing as for the past six years I have worked at a dog grooming salon, and gained even more experience with pups! If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out! :)

Shaine’s the best! My usually very nervous dog loves when she comes to stay with her!

My dog has anxiety around everyone, except Shaine! She is truly the dog whisperer. I love her and so does my buddy!
