Highlights
Pet care experience
Certified Trainer,Tail-Wag Approved
I'm a certified dog trainer who has worked with pet clinics and dog shelters in various capacities, and as a professional trainer, walker, and sitter including rescuing and fostering dogs, since 2019. I have a solid 7 years of working experience with all kinds of dogs, including training and caring for rescue and guide dogs! Having done an intensive course to be certified, I’m confident handling all kinds of dogs. A pet parent myself, I’ve also brought up my two dachshunds back home and know how much care and attention they need! Apart from spending most of my life around dogs, I am doing this mainly due to my passion as I can't pursue it full time at the moment. I am an empath- dedicated and absolutely obsessed with all dogs. I promise to treat every dog as my own and make sure they feel safe and happy with me! I may even throw in some behaviour/obedience training if you need!!

Ratings and reviews
Shayna was very attentive and gave us lots of updates! She was very caring and kind with Bluey. Thanks Shayna!

Shanaya has looked after my dog many times, overnight and just for walks and day visits too! She is an absolute natural with animals and it’s extremely evident. My dog is usually quite nervous around new people and he took to her so well. she always makes sure to keep me updated and keeps him so well looked after! She has helped me train him and even taken him for vet visits. I know I can always count on her when it comes to anything to do with my dog!
Shanaya has looked after our 2 daschunds on several occasions. She is amazing with them - completely reliable and trustworthy. She has done dog sitting, dog walking, grooming and training for our pets. They are so comfortable around her because she is has a wonderful way with them - loving and compassionate. Would highly recommend her to your clients.

Schedule
I work a lot from home with a hybrid job, so I have a fair availability during weeks and weekends to look after your baby!! I can do house visits, dog training, dog walking, and do dog sits overnights/ long periods as well. We can confirm exactly what you need after a short discussion with you, so you feel comfortable and I know specifically what your dog would require while you’re away!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I would look after your dog in your home or my own home- leash walking, mentally stimulating games, meals, treats and loads of belly rubs! Make sure to let me know what the rules of your house are and i will make sure we are both obedient and adhere to them!!
A typical day
I think it’s very important to keep any dog both physically and mentally stimulated. We would go on many long walks, play some games, explore the parks and maybe even go to the beach if that’s allowed! (I would also love to throw some training in too and help you, since I’m fully certified!)
