Let me walk you furbaby!

Hello!! My name is Shakoya and I am here to help take awesome care of your babies!! I have 5 years of experience with puppies and adult furbabies. I love meeting new furbabies and creating a relationship of trust and fun with them. As a child, I owned two German-Sherpards/ Pitbull mix males, so I am comfortable around any size dog. As a fur parent, I understand how important it is to find a caregiver that you can trust to take care of your baby. I personally have a furbaby called Versace, (miniature pinscher) that I trust the best to care for. I am committed to taking care of your baby as my own. I am a full-time fur baby caretaker and have a very flexible schedule. I am home each day, giving me the unique opportunity to take care of your furbaby when you are at work, school, or just out with friends. I am available for Walks and Drop-in Visits. As walking is my preferred exercise choice, I am up to walking miles with your furbaby. Safety is my top priority and FUN. I often visit dog parks and have treats and water on hand to ensure your furbaby can ensure themselves without fear exertion. I am an awesome communicator who will take the time to give your furbaby all the cubbies and love they deserve. Requested Information about your Furbaby I would like to know if your furbaby has any special needs, such as diet, separation anxiety, or any health issues also, if you can give their usual schedule for walking and feeding that is helpful as I want to adhere to their schedule as much as possible. I don't offer animal care in my house as I can't serve your furbaby as we would like. I am looking forward to expanding this offer soon.

Shakoya is amazing with our collie puppy! She is always on time, communicative, and even brings our deliveries in the house. Thanks to her, I never have to worry about our doggie when I’m not at home! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter.
