Treating Every Dog Like Family

Hi! I’m Shannie, and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I grew up with my sweet dog, Reese’s a Pomeranian, who was part of my family from fifth grade through my sophomore year of college. Having him taught me that pets aren’t “just animals” they’re family, and that’s exactly how I’ll treat yours. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, whether that meant feeding them, taking them on walks, playing fetch, giving them lots of love and attention, or simply keeping them company while their owners were away. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

Shannie was a great sitter for my dog when I needed someone available on short notice. Her apartment was very clean and knew my dog was in good hands. Highly recommend and would use again!

Shannie is hands down one of the most attentive and genuinely loving pet caregivers you could ask for. She treats every animal with the same care and affection as if they were her own. Responsible, detail oriented, and reliable you can rest completely easy knowing your pets are in wonderful hands with her!

Schedule

Caring for pets fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I make sure every dog gets plenty of attention, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and affection throughout the day. I typically take dogs outside every 2–4 hours (or more often if they’re puppies or have specific needs) and always follow the schedule and routine their owners provide. Whether your pup is energetic or prefers relaxing cuddles, I’m happy to adjust to what makes them happiest.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide potty breaks every 2–4 hours (or more often for puppies or dogs with specific needs), always keep fresh water available, and wipe paws after walks to help keep your pup clean and comfortable. I’m also comfortable using harnesses, crates if requested, and reinforcing any training you’re already working on. I’ve even taught a few dogs basic commands like “sit” and “shake.” While you’re away, you’ll never have to wonder how your furry family member is doing. I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you can see all the fun they’re having and know they’re happy, safe, and well cared for.
