Safety, trust & environment
I have a good sized pet safe fenced yard that your fur babies can play with mine and we are close to a few parks where they can interact with other dogs if you wish. Crates and playpens are available if you request or are needed.
Home
Information Shane J. would like to know about your pet
I like to make sure to enforce any special vocal commands so I can help you enforce the behaviors you desire; if they have any special dietary needs and if they are allowed to have treats. I can also administer any medications they may need. It is also good to know if your dog(s) enjoys other dogs in case the opportunity to play with others arises. Any emergency contact information you can share is welcomed as well just to be safe.
A typical day
I have two Cavachons of my own that love to have playmates in our backyard. I can take the dogs to the park or the river and play ball; or just enjoy the other dogs and wildlife if you prefer.

Pets are family, lets be family
Pet care experience
I have been a pet owner for over 30 years. I have had over six different breeds of dogs and raised them from puppies as well as six cats; most raised from kittens. I have also owned Cockatiels and had a few aquariums in my life. We currently have two Cavachons and three domestic short hair cats in our family. I have a good sized pet friendly fenced in yard that your fur babies can play with mine; I have crates and playpens if needed for overnight stays. I live close to a number of parks if you like to have your dog play or socialize more. When they stay overnight they will enjoy walks through the neighborhood and meet my dogs friends. I make sure to keep the number of pet guest at my home to just one family so your babies get individual attention. I also love the opportunity to stop by and check on your feline family members. I can also tend to any feathered, scaled or shelled pets. I have spent the past thirty-two years in the hospitality industry and I looking to start a new chapter in my life so this will be my primary focus. I look forward to spending my days with some of the most important members of your family.

Reviews


Just perfect. Flexible, responsive and responsable.

Shane went above and beyond while caring for my dog for nearly 2 weeks, providing daily medication, updates and photos each evening, and even a pup cup with a “6” candle on her birthday. Shane was patient and kind to my dog who can run anxious - top notch, a true professional, I couldn’t recommend more. Thank you!


Great service, very thorough. We loved the daily reports and photos. We feel very confident that our cats are in good hands and everything is perfect upon our return

Another pawtastic day with Shane.
