Safety, trust & environment

I truly love seeing animals feel comfortable, trusting, and happy. I believe that pets show their comfort and joy when they are cared for and loved wholeheartedly. Depending on your pet’s needs, I have crates available for overnight stays, or they can sleep on dog beds in the open with me—though I don’t allow dogs on my bed. I will also adhere to your pet's feeding schedule and administer any medications, if needed.

Please let me know in advance if there is anything I need to beware of/know about your pets, so that everything runs smoothly. Please let me know if your pet has any allergies. Thank you!

A typical day

Your furry friend will go on adventures with me, lots of play time, affection, and outdoor trails. I will make sure they are safe, comfortable, and happy! I will spend lots of quality time with them! And if they are a good they might even get treats or a toy for them to take home!

Canine handler & Vet Tech Student

Pet care experience

I have a natural affinity for animals and am experienced in handling all types of canines, regardless of breed, size, or age. In addition to dogs, I also have experience caring for cats and have a deep love for them as well. What I do brings me genuine joy, and I am passionate about working with animals. I'm bubbly, outgoing, organized, and responsible—traits that I believe are essential in this field. As a senior canine handler in British Columbia and a certified professional with Packpro as well as Certified with Fear Free for Veterinarian Professionals. I am deeply committed to the animal industry. I also have a strong passion for the outdoors and enjoy staying active through sports and exercise.

Shani was a great sitter for Milo! She kept me updated at all times and sent many pictures throughout his stay. She is careful and responsive, and checked in with me before giving any treats. I would 100% choose Shani again for boarding or daycare! Thank you Shani :)

Shani was so great with our big dog Earl. For his first time staying with her, we felt like we were in good hands. She sent regular updates and let us know how things were going. Thanks Shani!

Shani would be a great dog sitter because of her natural affinity for animals and her responsible demeanor. Shani’s love and compassion for dogs ensure that they receive the care, attention, and affection they need while their owners are away. Her reliability and commitment mean that pet owners can trust her to follow instructions carefully, maintain routines, and ensure the safety and well-being of their furry companions. Shani has had experience with handling dogs with different personalities which further solidifies Shani’s suitability for the role, making her an excellent choice for any dog owner seeking a dependable and caring sitter.

Shani is one of the most caring and loving people I know towards animals in general, but particularly dogs. I have a couple of dogs at home, including one that is more anxious; and she consciously respects their space, considers their boundaries and comfort levels, and ultimately aims to build great connections with them. She will match the energy of the pet and is always eager to entertain them through walks, playing, or cuddles. Many times, when a hangout with Shani is planned, she hopes the dogs will be a part of them too. Shani also carries a great sense of maturity and I would trust that she can follow owner’s instructions with no problems. Ultimately, Shani would be a delight to both the pet and the owner as a caregiver/dog walker.
