__________________________________________ AVAILABILITY: (please read before you book) : ) May - Middle of June: My schedule is flexible. I have more free time to dedicate to your pets! End of June - Middle of August: I work full time M-F. I would be gone for more than 8 hours during these days. I understand that is not ideal for many cases. However, I am still available to watch the pets that can work with that schedule! Such as cats or dogs that are a good fit! End of August 2025 - Beginning of May 2026: I commute to college during the school year. I would be gone 7.5 hours on Mondays. 8 hours on Tuesdays. 4.5 hours on Wednesdays. 4.5 hours on Thursdays. If that availability can work with your pets schedules I would love to watch them! Whenever I’m around your pet will always have attention, whether it’s for feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company! Pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I make sure to set aside dedicated time for each pet, I’ll do my best to ensure they’re happy and well cared for throughout the day or week.

Safety, trust & environment

I aim to provide a safe, cozy space where pets feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they always have fresh water, food, and a clean environment. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your pet’s routine, checking in on them regularly, ensuring they’re well-fed, hydrated, and happy.

Information Shannon B. would like to know about your pet

The more information you provide the better! I want to know why you love your pets and what makes them special because I know I could go on about mine! Basic information: any special requirements. Health concerns: Any existing medical conditions, allergies, or medications they need? Behavior traits: Are they friendly with strangers, other pets, or children? Do they have any anxieties or aggression issues? All to ensure I can provide the best care tailored to their specific needs.

A typical day

Following the pet's established schedule is crucial for maintaining consistency and minimizing stress for the animal. Providing meals at the designated times with the correct portion sizes. Ensuring a clean water bowl is readily available throughout the day. Walks, playtime, or other appropriate forms of physical activity depending on the pet's needs and energy levels. Taking the pet outside to use the bathroom as needed. Monitoring the pet's behavior and health, reporting any concerns to the owner.

Shannon was fantastic! She was great with communication and sent us lots of pictures of Mady, which we loved. If you’re thinking about booking Shannon as a sitter, do it - she’s wonderful!

Shannon was great with Gemma as always! She offered to help with some of our newly planted plants so they would make it through the heat and that was much appreciated!! I highly recommend her!

It was such a relief having someone as reliable as Shannon to watch our 4 cats! She sent plenty of pictures and even got in some play time during her 30 min drop-ins. Everything seemed in order when we returned home from our trip. Will be booking Shannon again!
