Reviews
Shannon is a great and trustworthy caregiver. She loves all types of animals and always takes the best care of them. I highly recommend Shannon for your pet care needs.
Shannon has been my petsitter for the past 3 years. She is wonderful with all animals, especially with dogs. I have a very hyper golden retriever who adores her and gets very excited to go on walks with her because Shannon will often take her on long walks to the dog park and play ball. Shannon is a professional with dogs and has a lot of compassion for our furbabies, she is my go-to dog walker and petsitter!
Shannon was an amazing dog sitter for my dog, Sasha. My dog has a bit of separation anxiety and it has often been difficult for Sasha to get comfortable around other sitters, however she loved Shannon immediately! She did a great job distracting her or keeping her playing so she didn't become too anxious. Sasha is also a heavier medium sized dog, but I feel comfortable that Shannon has good control of the dog. Shannon followed all the instructions we left for her about taking care of Sasha and she would always call or text if there were any concerns, which I appreciated because I know she has Sasha's care and safety as her top priority.
Shannon is an excellent caregiver, kind, compassionate, and responsible. I've seen her firsthand take care of our house, dog. She always offers to take the dog out, feed her, and give her extra cuddles and playtime. She is extremely loving, and always puts the dog first. She will be an excellent pet owner, and there is no one who deserves one more.
About Shannon D.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Previously employed as a pet care specialist where we were educated on how to read dogs' body language to anticipate situations. Your dog's safety is my number one priority and will always be walked on a leash away from potential hazards. If boarding, my house has a grassy backyard they can play in and I am willing to crate if preferred.

A typical day
Love to keep the dogs mentally and physically stimulated by taking them to new spots to explore and smell! Some of our favorite walking trails include Bethpage and Massapequa Bike Trails :)
