Pet care experience
Hi. Thanks for clicking on our profile. We are an experienced sitter team. We spent the summer and fall of 2016 pet sitting in the UK and Portugal and enjoyed it immensely, we were hooked and knew we wanted to do it again. In 2017 we pet sat a wonderful small dog in Cuenca, Ecuador for 3 months. We really enjoy animals and we look forward to meeting your furry family members and giving them lots of love and attention while you are away. We are friendly, honest, reliable people that you can count on. We have had pets so you can be confident your 4 legged family members will not only be well cared for, but also provided with a great deal of love and attention. We are a retired couple. Shane has a Wildlife Biology degree. He has had a number of different exotic pets, including lizards and fish over the years. We have also had a few doggies and we fostered a Mama cat that was pregnant, and helped to find homes for her and her litter. Trisha is very detailed oriented. She worked as a manager for years in the court system and as an advocate for foster children. Trisha will make sure the instructions you leave will be followed down to the last detail and provide you with update texts and photos letting you know how things are going and reassuring you so you can relax and enjoy your time away and know your fur babies are doing great. If we have the privilege of taking care of your pet in our home, your special family member will also receive love and attention from our 19 year old twin sons. They are quiet by nature, mature, and helpful. They both really enjoy pets and seem to have a special way with them. We have an unfenced yard with plenty of space to play ball. Additionally, we live in the Lake Holiday community which is perfect for walking and hiking. If you choose us, you can be confident we will take extra special care of your four legged family members. We will provide your fur buddies with lots and lots of love and play time. We love to walk and get out and enjoy the great outdoors. Taking a dog for a walk is not work – it's fun, and just makes us smile. Pet sitting is a privilege and an honor. Animals enrich our lives. Whether we get to spend a few minutes or an extended time with your beloved furry family members we look forward to caring for them. We hope to hear from you very soon so we can discuss your specific needs in more depth and get to know one another a little better. We look forward to hearing from you. Thank you so much for your time and consideration of us to meet your pet sitting/care needs. Warm Regards, Shane & Trisha
Reviews
Five stars for Shane & Trish! My two pups came home as if they had a spa weekend! We loved all of the updates, pictures and just the feeling of a safe environment for our family members. Shane & Trish are wonderful sitters and very understanding, helpful, caring people. You better have your vacations/plans in advance when booking with Shane & Trish. They have regulars that you will have to compete with and I will for sure be on this list! Best sitters thus far, Bar None!
Shane and Katrisha are the best! My two pups have their own issues -- one has separation anxiety and the other is very elderly -- and Shane and Katrisha took great care of them and accommodated their needs. I felt 100% reassured that my two pups were in great hands. Also, they were incredibly flexible when it came to working around the recent snow storms, assuring that I could minimize my drive time during the snow. I thought it was very thoughtful of them to think about my safety like that. In fact, had it not been for them reaching out to me the night before the storm was to hit, I wouldn't have even known there was a snow storm coming! All in all, a great experience with Shane and Katrisha, who went over and beyond what dog sitters typically do. My pups will definitely stay with them again the next time we're in town!
I can’t say enough about Shane and Trisha! They are AMAZING!! The dogs are my children and I feel quite comfortable with leaving them. They love to there and are comfortable too! I know my babies are in great hands. They receive daily walks, hugs and love. I also receive daily updates and pictures. Trisha and Shane have a great communication really care my pups! I will definitely book with them in the future!
Trisha and Shane are wonderful! They took such good care of our dog. I wish I could leave more than 5 stars.

Information Shane & Katrisha S. would like to know about your pet
We want your furry family member to be as comfortable as possible, and have a relaxed wonderful stay with us. It really helps if we can meet your pup before his/her stay so we all get to know one another a little bit, and you can tell us about a day in the life of your fur baby. Things that are really important for us to know include: any special diet needs, where your pup likes to sleep, who is his/her Vet., & how does she/he let you know when needs to go out. ;-)
A typical day
We live in the Lake Holiday community so we have miles of quiet streets and trails for walking. We are also getting a dog park in the neighborhood in the near future! Our yard is perfect for playing ball and having a sniff about. :-)
