Highlights
Pet care experience
Pawsitively Reliable!
***For boarding and daycare requests-please stay current with age appropriate vaccines, and flea & tick medication’s. This is for my safety as well as your pet and the others in my home*** With 26 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities. From my own pets to fostering, volunteering, and watching friends’ and family’s dogs. Your dog will be treated like part of my family with plenty of play, attention, and love. A calm environment is also provided. ***PLEASE NOTE*** I offer both boarding and daycare, so while your dog may sometimes be the only overnight guest, I do have regular daycare buddies who come play during the week. Because of this, I’m not able to take pups who need to be the only dog here—but I promise to make sure your furry friend feels safe, happy, and loved while they’re with me. Lots of cuddles, playtime, and updates included!

Ratings and reviews
Thank you so much Shanna for putting in soo much care when you have Theo I know he is in great hands and I don’t have to worry when Theo is with you.

Great job. The piggies said you did a great job.

Our Heeler stayed with Shanna while we went to a Packers game. She was a little apprehensive at drop off but Shanna sent pictures and updates so we knew she had warmed up to being there and had a made a friend. It was our first Rover experience and it we were very pleased with everything. Thank you Shanna!

Love this girl. She is always in tune to what I need for my pet. Thanks again for your help !

Gus loves his walks with Shanna!

Shanna is super flexible and amazing with my dog who has anxiety. She works with what he is comfortable with amd always communicates well about how he did during his walks. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter or walker.

Schedule
Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine since I’m currently taking a break from traveling for work and will be home most of the time. This means your pet will have plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision, with only brief periods when I may need to run an errand.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets by providing a safe, comfortable, and stimulating environment. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and get attention. For client homes, I ensure the pet’s routine stays consistent, offering exercise, playtime, and companionship while respecting the home’s rules. I adjust my care based on each pet’s specific needs and the services requested.
A typical day
A typical day with a dog I’m boarding/sitting starts with a morning walk to get their energy out, followed by breakfast and some playtime. Afterward, I’ll offer plenty of cuddle time or a nap in a cozy spot. In the afternoon, we might go for another walk, followed by interactive play like fetch or tug-of-war. Throughout the day, I’ll provide treats, training sessions (if desired), and lots of love and attention. Evenings are spent winding down with some calm time before bed, ensuring your dog feels safe and comfortable every step of the way! Every dog is different and activities can be adjusted depending on activity level of the dog.

- Some things about your dog that will be important for me to know are: 1. Routine: Their daily schedule for meals, walks, naps, and playtime. 2. Diet & Allergies: Specific food preferences, feeding schedule, and any dietary restrictions or allergies. 3. Behavior & Temperament: How they interact with other pets, people, or new environments. 4. Health Needs: Any medical conditions, medications, or special care required. 5. Exercise Preferences: Whether they enjoy long walks, playtime, or prefer a more relaxed environment. 6. Triggers & Fears: Any fears (e.g., loud noises, strangers) or behavioral quirks (e.g., separation anxiety, doesn’t like ears touched etc.). 7. Emergency Contacts: Vet information and any important contacts for their care. This information helps ensure their comfort, safety, and well-being while they’re in my care.
