Information Shakeitha P. would like to know about your pet

The most important information I like to know before booking includes your pet’s daily routine — feeding schedule, potty breaks, and walk times — so I can keep them on track and feeling comfortable.

A typical day

Depending on your pet’s personality and energy level, we might go for walks around the neighborhood, play fetch, enjoy tug-of-war, or have fun with interactive toys. For dogs who like to explore, we’ll take time to sniff around and burn off energy, and for calmer pets, we can enjoy cuddle sessions.

🐾 Reliable & Loving Pet Care

Pet care experience

Hey everyone! I’m Shakeitha 👋 I work full-time Monday–Friday, so my availability is limited and may vary — but when I’m with your pets, they have my full attention. I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, and I have hands-on experience working at two different dog daycare/spas. That means I’m very familiar with different breeds, temperaments, and energy levels — from shy pups to playful wiggle-butts. 🐾 At home, I have a friendly medium-sized dog of my own, so I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy and loving to look after your fur family.

Shakeitha did amazing with Tater, and she was very communicative throughout the whole process.

Excellent experience! Shakeitha showed my fur baby such love and kindness! She sent me numerous pictures and regularly updated me on his condition!

She was great. Kept me in the loop and updated with pictures and texts about the bursaries. Will definately use again.

Wonderful, I love the convenience of having her pick him up and drop him off, he was worn out when he got home which is great, he got to burn off lots of energy, and she was a sweetheart, who had a long goodbye of kisses from Gucci
