Pet care experience
I have over 15 years in animal care including kennel technician position​ at an animal hospital. I have a certificate in animal behavior. I am experienced in special needs and medications. I have kept exotics, including snakes, lizards, turtles and birds, and love all animals. I love my 2 dogs. Sammy came to us and gave birth just 2 weeks later. I raised the 10 puppies volunteering with a rescue organization. I kept one of them and the mom. The puppy is now over 10 years and the mom is 13. I’ve also rescued my two cats off of the street. I look forward to taking care of your furry family members when you can't. I know how stressful it can be when you can't take them with you. I let the animal choose what we do with our extra time. Sometimes that’s just some cuddles on the couch.
Reviews
Shane is wonderful! We asked him to stop by twice a day to feed our cat Whisky. Whisky is a very picky eater, and we have very specific instructions about feeding him. Shane followed those instructions carefully. He was very gentle with Whisky, and Whisky loved him. Shane is very responsive and prompt at replying to messages. Would definitely recommend!
Thoughtful, responsive, and took great care of my dog over a weekend. Could not recommend more!
My dog, Miki, and Shane bonded immediately. Shane is prompt, reliable, and most importantly, caring. He treats Miki like an old friend and Miki loves him! I would recommend Shane to anyone who wants a dog and its human to be treated with respect and professionalism. He is simply the best. Janny Lehman
Shane is great with our cat! He is a very caring & reliable sitter. We will definitely request Shane for future visits.

Information Shane S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if they have dietary restrictions, allergies, or need any medications. A daily routine is good to know. How often they like to go out and eat.
A typical day
It really depends on what your pet loves to do. I love to throw a ball and play with the dogs. Sometimes all they want when you are away is a good cuddle.
