Can't wait to meet your pets!

Howdy! My name is Shane and I'm the proud owner of 3 cats and previously a Pointer named Pepper (sadly she passed on at the age of 11). I previously had 3 chickens as well (all passed on sadly). I have 15+ years of cat & dog ownership, and can't wait to meet your pets! Worried how your dog or cat may get along with my pets? No worries, as I have a spare room in the house dedicated to providing room & board, while also providing adequate freedom for your animal. Cats will remain separated during the duration of the stay, but your pup is free to roam the house.

I booked with Shane on very short notice and he came through without hesitation. He was communicative from the start and sent updates throughout the stay, which gave me total peace of mind. I'd absolutely book with him again.

Shane was an incredible sitter. He kept us updated about our dog the entire time! Any question or comment I had, he answered very quickly. We had some trouble getting there at the scheduled time for pickup and he waited until we got there and was so kind about it. Overall, very impressed with him and his service! Will definitely be booking with him again in the future!

Shane was very good with communication and kept in touch throughout the booking. However, I am confident my dog wasn't actually taken for her walks. Shane informed me that she hadn't pooped, but she pooped immediately right outside his house when I picked her up, and then twice more within the next 30 minutes. It is clear she was only let out into the backyard rather than being walked as agreed, which isn't fair to her or what was expected.

Shane was so wonderful and accommodating!! He sent me photo /video updates daily and responded to my messages right away! I knew my dogs were in great hands and you can tell he really cares for animals and loves them. Moving forward I’m only going to hire him whenever I need to board my dogs !! Thank you Shane!! You’re an angel!
