Lifelong animal lover 💚

Pet care experience

Animals are one of the things that make me happiest, and I'd be honored to keep care of your dog or cat! I am new to Rover, but have been dogsitting and keeping care of animals for most all my life. I've taken care of a number of pets since I was about 12 years old. My family had a dog throughout my childhood, as well as a number of neighborhood dogs that we would walk during the week. After my childhood dog passed on, we had a rotation of about 10 community dogs that would stay with us while their owners were on holiday. More recently, I have been dogsitting for friends in London. I'm comfortable and experienced with a wide range of breeds, activity levels, and ages. Friends would describe me as conscientious, thoughtful, and responsible, and I recognize how important animals are to their owners. I'd absolutely treat your dog or cat as if it was my own. I take a lot of pride in quick, reliable communication and love to send photo updates 🙏🏻

I without doubt recommend Shannon; she took excellent care of our dog, despite the fact that it might have proved challenging. The communication was excellent throughout, and we received photos and updates on his overall well-being. Furthermore, she was happy to provide input that will assist us with future training. Thank you for everything.

Shannon was good in responding messages and coordinating the day care. We were happy with her care for Floki and level of experience.

Havoc had a great time with Shannon. I was a bit nervous but Shannon put me at ease immediately and sent photos and updates. I will definitely be rebooking. Thanks so much!

A typical day

I love to explore London with a doggy companion! I have a great, fenced in park next to my house for playing fetch and potty breaks. I also love to take dogs to the larger parks in London for longer walks or runs. At the end of the day, I love a cuddle and time on the sofa with an animal companion. I'm happy to care for higher or lower energy dogs with varying levels of activity needed.

I work from home 4-5 days a week and live with one flatmate (no pets at the moment, only because I'm only living in London about 1 more year before moving back to the USA!). I have flexible working hours, so am quite available to take dogs out for potty breaks, walks, etc. On weekends, I love to take dogs I'm caring for to the larger London parks for long walks/runs! I have friends around the flat occasionally, no more than 2-3 at a time.
