Pet care experience
Lifelong Pet Lover/Reliable Walker
Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets of all personalities and energy levels. I got my dog when I was 5 years old and he was truly my best friend for 17 years. Ever since then, dogs have always been a huge part of my life. After moving from Minnesota to California, I had the opportunity to work on the TV show Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan and it’s still one of the best jobs I’ve ever had! Being around dogs every day only deepened my appreciation for how unique and special they are. When I got engaged, my then roommate surprised me with a puppy party Bridal Shower! She knew I didn’t want anything traditional so when I walked into our apartment and there were puppies running all over the kitchen, I almost died of happiness! These days, I’m building my own genealogy research business and looking to spend more time caring for animals again through dog walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. While I’ve always been a dog person, many of my friends have cats, so I’ve grown into a cat lover too! I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and genuinely happy around animals. Whether your pet needs a walk, play time, or just someone caring to check in on them, I’d love to help.

Ratings and reviews
Shanna took such good care of my boys! She kept me updated with lots of videos and pictures which I loved. I would definitely book her again. She clearly cares a lot about animals; she spent awhile playing with them rather than just feeding them and leaving.
I highly recommend Shanna for your pet sitting needs! It was clear that my dog was happy, comfortable and getting lots of attention. Shanna takes the time to fully build genuine relationships with pets in order to create meaningful bonds. I received regular updates, messages and photos of my dog which made me feel completely at ease. I am so grateful for the kindness, reliability, and professionalism shown throughout the entire experience.
Shanna has a lot of experience with dogs and loves all fur babies. She has taken good care of my two pups many times and I know I can always trust them in her care. She spoils them with cuddles and is sure to take lots of cute photos!! I recommend her as a trustworthy pet sitter/walker!
I highly recommend Shanna as a pet sitter and caregiver. She is dependable, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. Shanna has a natural ability to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for, whether it's during a quick visit or an extended stay. She is responsible, communicative, and pays close attention to each pet's unique needs and routines. Any pet owner can feel confident knowing their furry family members are in caring and capable hands with Shanna. Her kindness, patience, and dedication make her an exceptional choice for pet care.
If you love your furbabies you definitely want Shanna taking care of them. She is experience, responsible and very flexible. Her communication is top notch and most of all, my dog loves her so much.
I always use Shanna to pet sit when I'm away. She makes my Salem feel so comfortable and loved and I know that my little kitty is being well looked after.
