Pet care experience

Come, stay, play!

I have over 25 years of experience caring for and loving dogs. I have provided basic training techniques, agility training, walking, boarding, drop in visits and overall companionship. I make sure that I feed the dog according to their schedule, and ensuring its safety and well-being including administering medications. I am able to accommodate dogs of all types and sizes and I communicate with owners by providing updates on the dog's progress. Depending on the arrangement, this can involve overnight stays and house-sitting. I have also cared for senior dogs and dogs with special needs!

Shannon cared for our home and Isabelle wonderfully! She was reliable, attentive, respectful and loving. I highly recommend her services! You will not be disappointed!

Shannon loves all animals and always takes her time with them. She will love them like they are her own. They will get lots of love while you are away.

Nothing but great things to say!! I have 3 dogs that tend to be on the wild side and like to get into trouble, and 2/3 of them have special needs; Shannon went above and beyond with my pups and I’ve never worried about their safety or stress levels during the several times she has watched them. Not only does she offer a separate area of the house for the dogs to have lots of space to themselves (with cameras so she can always monitor), she has a large, secure backyard that even my escape artist pup can play in safely. Shannon really cares about my dogs’ happiness while they are with her and treats them as her own — she is willing to accommodate my VERY people-selective and scared dog and go above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and safe while I am away!

I have known Shannon for over two decades and it was an EASY choice to say yes to her watching my sweet angel Taylor. Shannon’s heart for animals is out of this world and any pet would benefit from the love she showers upon them. Shannon is responsible and very communicative with your fur babies. She asks questions thoroughly to make sure your beloved animal gets the attention deserved. I would hands down recommend Shannon to watch my fur babies any day and trust her to the fullest 🤍🤍

Shannon is a dog lover at heart. She watched our Doberman for a few days while we were on vacation and our dog got a vacation of her own. She came back home well loved and tired from play. Our dog looks forward to spending time with Shannon.

Shannon loves pets and have watched our dogs for many years. The dogs were well treated and well fed. She has kept them at times for at least a month and very accommodating to our schedule. There is an enclosed fenced area for the dogs to run. Medicines were given in a timely manner.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard with shelter and water. I live on a dead end road so very quiet and safe. Your furbabies will have fun running and playing outdoors and indoors! If you would rather me come to your home, I’m familiar with taking care of other dogs in the safety of their current environment including over night stays!

Pets

A typical day

After a full night’s rest, we eat breakfast, go outside and play in the fenced in yard, take a break to relax, do some basic training, go to dog parks, go for a walk, have dinner, wind down, sleep & repeat!
