About Shannon

Pet care experience

Happy to walk/run, care, feed, and stop in for a friendly hello and play dates with your pets! Loved and cared for my dog of over 15 years and for my cat of 22 years. I have plenty of experience with caring for hamsters and rabbits as well. I have been a frequent pet sitter for the past 4 years with plenty of returners. Rest assured your pets are in good hands. I enjoy running if your dog is up for it, but also enjoy walking or staying in if that's also their speed. I look forward to getting to know you and caring for your fur babies when you need it!

We boarded our dog with Shannon for a week. She is a wonderful pet sitter! Sent us plenty of updates and pics. Very easy to communicate with. Our dog came home very happy and relaxed. I can highly recommend Shannon as a sitter.

Marie loved staying with Shannon over a long weekend! Shannon gave us updates and videos throughout Marie’s stay. Having a fenced in back yard made us feel better about Marie’s stay knowing that she was safe. Marie came back to us happy and tired out, telling us that she went on walks and was played with all weekend. Highly recommend!

Shannon is so sweet and my dogs came back so happy after their stay with Shannon and her family! Her communication and updates had us feeling so at ease during our time away! We will definitely book again and recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter!

I have a large fenced in yard, millions of toys, and a beautiful walking trail behind my house. I am able to crate your dog if you wish to keep practicing specific house training habits, and they are welcome to roam free in my home when we're indoors. If we are at your residence I make sure to keep things neat and tidy as they were and frequent updates of your pets/house.

Information Shannon A. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs that I need to keep in mind, including but not limited to food allergies, medication, whether they are kind with other dogs, cats, people and children. I'd love to make sure they're most comfortable around me, so I suggest a meet and greet beforehand but not always necessary if your fur baby is adaptable to new people and environment. If you have special commands you've been working on, let me know and I'll do my best to make sure I don't disrupt their routine and habits!

A typical day

I love to make sure your loved ones are having the best day possible while you're away. I'll have a day full of activities that best fit your preference: the dog park, slow strolls in the park, exploring trails and light hiking, and a lazy day with belly rubs. Your pups and pets will be very much entertained and loved while you're away.
