Wildlife educator with free time!

Pet care experience

I am a wildlife educator with a husky/collie mix. I work mostly from home so I can walk/run frequently and am happy to take your pets if you're in search of a place for them for a little while. Able to take/run/walk all sizes of dogs and have a very friendly running companion for them. I used to work as a vet assistant, zookeeper, wildlife edcuator, and dog walker. My first animal that I took care of was a 400lbs rhino, so let me know if you have a big dog and we can make it work! Very used to special needs animals and high care needs. Please let me know ahead of time though. Willing to work with special requests. Positive reinforcement only and very patient.

First time user of Rover and could not have gone better... Shane is - as his profile indicates - mature and intuitive. My dog was shy to meet him when he showed up at the house “cold turkey”, but he took his time to let her warm up to him before heading out on a good long walk. He was such a good sport to walk/run with her with his own dog along...don’t know how he did it! The Rover report card is a bonus - time allotment, gps indication and photos provide a great sense of assurance. I will be a repeat customer of Shane’s for sure! Lois - Gatineau

Shane is a very friendly, responsible and respectful dog sitter. He offers flexible hours and is always willing to work to fit my schedule. He keeps open communication at all times which is key when I am out of town for work or away on vacation. He is very caring and genuinely enjoys spending time with my dog. I appreciate his professionalism and kind demeanour. I would certainly recommend Shane as the #1 dog sitter to all my friends and family!
