I stay at home now and have a fully fenced yard. Don’t have a dog of my own at the moment mainly because my husband and I are trying to find the right rescue for us! I have plenty of time for your pup and will keep you updated through each step of our day night together!

Fully fenced yard. Daily walk as well. I have a large soft play pen available if my client feels more comfortable keeping their dog gated in. Otherwise we can set up their toys, bed, feeding area anywhere the animals feel most happy. If pup is crate trained we have our own here (one small size and one extra large) but only if the owner prefers otherwise they are free to roam.

Information Shannen F. would like to know about your pet

Any medications necessary and precisely how to give to your dog. If they have any issues with small children or loud noises so I will be sure to avoid the parks and play areas.

A typical day

I love to get out and enjoy the sun and fresh air! My favorite place is the boardwalk and the beach, but cedar creek park is another preference. Cooking is a hobby of mine and can even make your pet home cooked, lean protein meals. Plenty of exercise, as well as rest and treats in between. I’m up around 5:30 AM, grab a coffee, and start my morning chores. After laundry and dishes are done I make breakfast and then hit the Peleton. After getting ready for the day I will walk to the store, pick up whatever is needed for dinner that night and keep myself busy with seeing family and friends. I am extremely focused on my weight loss journey so my day revolves around staying active and feeling as positive as possible,

Trusting me with your furry friend!

Pet care experience

Fully insured through PCI and only one pup family at a time! Very personal experience at my home caring for your fur baby! Stay at home mom that treats your pup as a member of our family. Constant care offered (price may increase depending on your pups needs). Schedule sent every night of our day together and they will have a companion for their entire stay. Had a family pet for 18 years and two rescues since then. I’ve worked in children’s daycare and was a nanny for a year as well. I have house sat dogs, rabbits, and guinea pigs too. My husband and two young boys keep your pet entertained and happy during their time with us. During your pet’s stay they will choose where they’d like to sleep and feel genuinely comfortable. I really do enjoy making your pup happy. Dogs give us everything they have and I love giving as much as I can back to them! No better love than from an animal.

Shannen is an absolute gem! My Leo just finished another long stay with her and I’m so grateful for how wonderfully she cares for him! See you soon, I’m sure, Shannen 😁

Shannen and her husband were amazing with our babies! She sent so many photos and updates, which made us at ease while we were away. I felt reassured that they were in great hands and got plenty of playtime :)

Shannen is my go-to sitter for my dog Leo. She’s absolutely amazing with him and super communicative. You can’t go wrong with Shannen!
