Pet-Sitter & Dog Trainer
Pet care experience
My name is Shannon and working with dogs is my passion! I’m a trainer and have three dogs myself (German Shepherd, Shih Tzu and a German Shorthaired Pointer). I do require that all my boarding dogs are crate trained for their protection as well as up to date on all regular vaccinations. If you are looking for training - feel free to contact me about that as well and we can get you that information! I have been working with animals all my life and can’t wait to meet your fur ball family members! As I work from home, I’m normally not gone from the house for more than a few hours at a time on a normal day. We do require dogs to be crate trained as they are crated overnight and when not supervised. I do keep client dogs mostly separate from other dogs until I get a feel for their play style and needs before they interact with other dogs (including my own personal dogs who are very dog friendly).
Reviews
Shannon was absolutely amazing
She was great with our dog. It was the puppy’s first boarding. She really understands dogs!
Shannon was fantastic! I needed a last minute sitter for my shy bully mix and my deaf Aussie. I gravitated towards her due to her previous training experience, since my deaf Aussie is e-collar trained and has a few unique considerations. I also like that she crates dogs when alone for safety reasons, and to allow decompression- that is crucial for boarding safety! She responded promptly to my first message, asked great questions, and was extremely patient with my situation and needing to change my times around. Drop off and pick up were effortless. My only complain during the stay is that no photos or videos were sent, which made it feel less personal. It was only a 1 night stay, but it was the first time my dogs were ever away from me! But to be fair I did not specifically ask for anything. Aside from that they were clearly well cared for, updates were great, and our interactions were pleasant. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional, kind sitter for their pets!
Love Shannon and so does my Ollie!

Information Shannon D. would like to know about your pet
All breeds are welcomed! But I do require they are crate trained and up to date on vaccines. If you have a young puppy, that’s okay - I can work with that.
A typical day
Our HOA has a nature trail at the end of the street where we get to walk around a pond and watch the geese be crazy! But if your dog just likes to veg out on the couch - we definitely do that too!
