Hello, my name is Shannon (my Husband is Eric). I've had dogs and cats all my life, having grown up in Montana. Currently we have 2 loving, playful, social, and healthy Black and Tan Coonhounds with great manners who play very well with other dogs, one of which is off-leash trained. As a dog owner/caretaker, I am affectionate, compassionate, reliable, responsible, attentive, and playful. There will be lots of playtime and attention as your pet's needs allow. I work from home for a forensic accounting firm with a flexible schedule to meet your pet's needs accordingly. We have a 2.5 acre fenced yard for dogs to run, play, and be social. __________________________________________________________________ More about me: As a home-owner, landlord, tenant, and pet-owner, I understand the needs and requirements of taking care of and showing respect for your space and beloved pets while you are away from home. Respecting your privacy and affectionately caring for your pet and home, is my mission. I am an exceptional cook and house-keeper. Cooking and cleaning services also available upon request. There is nothing better than returning after a long trip to a clean home, hot meal, and a happy pet. This is my specialty! I am offering in-home pet/house sitting services, that include plant watering, mail pickup, and trash removal as part of my care package. Light dishes and laundry may be added per request, separate from cleaning services. I have several years of house and pet-sitting from Montana, Missouri, and Virginia. For the last several years, I have been an active-duty Air Force wife. We are now permanently in the Kalispell area...and very excited about it! I am tidy, reliable, professional, and a non-smoker. I am originally from the Missoula area, have a B.A. in math, business, and economics; and have been working remote for a forensic accounting firm for the past 8+ years. My husband is an attorney and we have two loving, playful, and healthy black and tan coon hounds. I have an completely clean record, having successfully passed several background checks (for federal and state jobs). My recommended process- Before you plan to leave for your trip, I'd love to make your acquaintance in person. If you still choose to use my services, I kindly request a tour of your space (for pick-up and drop-off purposes), to meet your pet(s), discuss your expectations/requests/necessities to meet your home/pet’s needs as best I can. ** DOGS MUST BE POTTY TRAINED IF THEY ARE TO COME INSIDE. $100 CLEANING FEE WILL APPLY IF THEY ARE CLEARLY NOT HOUSE-BROKEN"*
