Pet care experience
I treat dogs like family and have always had the ability to connect with them. In 2009, I adopted an adult yellow lab, took him to law school with me, and pampered him for 11 years until he passed at age 17 last year. My vet told me he was one of the best cared for labs in her career and impressed by the longevity I gave him through constant care, exercise, and training. I am skilled at care for young and elder pets, including oral medicine administration, age appropriate exercise, and games or positive reinforcement training.
Reviews
Shane was a great dog watcher! He sent plenty of pics and updates and made me feel very comfortable. Highly recommended!
Shane was very accommodating to my schedule and Drake enjoyed all of the walks and attention!
Shane was an amazing sitter for my 7-month old puppy. Shane is extremely kind, caring and responsible. He took my pup for daily walks/adventures and sent me great pictures each day, so that I could see my happy pup. I would highly recommend Shane and would use him again any time.
Shane was amazing! I could tell from our meet and greet that he truly loves dogs and caring for them. I have a high energy border collie and Shane dedicated his time to giving my dog plenty of walks and lots of love. He sent me daily photos and updates and was always a text away if I had any questions. My dog came home to me happy and healthy. I’ll definitely rebook with Shane!
About Shane W.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Pets that stay with me will hang out with me most of the day, enjoy multiple potty breaks and walks, and receive frequent cuddles and belly rubs. We will always have fresh water in elevated bowls and meals as owner directed. While I am not a professional dog trainer, I attended training with my lab and worked with him during his whole life on various tricks and commands if you’d like me to use positive reinforcement (treats or affection) to reinforce behavior you may be working on at home. We can also just hang out on the couch and watch TV!
Home
Information Shane W. would like to know about your pet
Any information to help your pup have a fun and fulfilling stay, such as diet, exercise, or play preferences. It’s also helpful to know any personality quirks, medication, routines, and how they react to other dogs or humans!
A typical day
I like to take a small break every hour to unwind and stretch my legs, typically taking a walk around the block or even making a longer phone call. My favorite places to walk are the Boulevard, Coonskin Park, and Little Creek.
Services
Shane can host
Availability
I own my own business in downtown Charleston and will have the pups mostly with me at my large office on Quarrier Street with a nice lawn and close to the Boulevard for walks. Lots of attention and interaction with me and my teammates, or they can have private time to rest and relax.
