Work from home and daily walks!

Pet care experience

Hello! I'm Shana - an animal lover and program manager at Microsoft. I currently travel a lot for work, which means I don't have fur babies of my own. However, when I'm in town I'm lucky enough to be able to work from home pretty frequently, so I'd love to take care of yours instead! I'm able to take care of your pet in my apartment (or yours if you live close by) and will be able to take them out frequently for potty breaks and walks, or run if they'd like! In addition I own a car that I'm able to use to help transport your pet for errands or in case of an emergency. I’m right next to Cal Anderson, and just a few blocks from a dog park, if your dog would like to go socialize. I’m also a casual runner, so let me know if your dog would like to take a jog with me. If your dog’s more the Netxflix and chill-on-the-couch-with-me type - that’s great too. I grew up in Iowa with a few different family pets (miniature poodle, german shephard, cat, hamsters, fish, etc.) - I don't think a family is complete without a pet to love! In the past I've also dog sat in-home for an elderly dog who suffered from seizures and have experience administering oral medications. Finally, I am a trained foster provider for the Seattle Humane Society - able to take care of adult dogs and cats, as well as kittens and puppies while they're waiting for their forever home - but won't have any other animals in my apartment while I'm responsible for yours.

Shana is far and away the BEST dog sitter I have EVER used- and considering I have worked with animals my whole life and am also a dog sitter? That’s saying something ? And as a customer, I a *bit* high maintenance- Shana handled everything I threw at her with no problem. She was kind, bent over backwards to meet my and Cami’s needs and I felt completely safe leaving Cami with her for two weeks while I was out of the county. Cami is.... unique- Shana dealt with all her weirdness smoothly and I came back to a happy, healthy and still weird dog ? TL;DR I’m never using another dog sitter again if I can help it! She also takes great pictures ?

Colette loves staying with Shana. It was her first stay away from home, so as parents we were a little anxious. Shana kept us up to date with cute picture and narrative about their adventures to parks and walks. Super happy, and will rebook when we need help again! (Or if Colette needs a break from us! ?)

Shana was amazing and super accommodating to my need for last minute sitting. She sent lots of pictures and was very communicative throughout the whole stay. I will definitely be reaching out to Shana in the future for my dog sitting needs.

Amazing sitter! Shana provided constant updates and photos and my dog Roo fell in love right away! She did a great job of taking care of Roo!
