Pet care experience

Pets aren't pets, pets are people!

I have always had pets of my own. My children have been raised with pets for their whole lives as well. We treat our pets as people. Our babies know when I make eggs or pancakes, they will get their own plate. Juliet, Lusy, and Molly also sleep with us. I am known to spoil my pets. In high school, my boyfriend was jealous of my chihuahua, Booger. Booger was the most loyal pet, friend, family I'd had at that time in my life. I have most recently learned to care for horses and chickens as well. It was fun and scary, but very rewarding. I can't wait to assist others in the care of their precious fur babies. I am currently taking courses online, and am great at time management. I am free to take breaks and assist when needed due to taking courses online from home. We have a fenced in back yard and doggy door. The doggy door stays open the majority of the day. Our pets are fed as soon as we wake in the mornings. Their food and water is out all day into the evening. We do put up their food at night. We follow the rules of our clients! I feel that is a must in order to have returning clients. We have kennels, but rarely use them. We try to mKe sure someone is always home with our pets.

Shannon is truly amazing! Our three dogs loved having her stay with them. She sent us daily pictures of them living their best life. They all have such anxiety going to boarding facilities. It was comforting to know they were being well cared for and loved. Shannon even washed her own bedding and cleaned up before she left. We will definitely be booking her again. Thank you!

Thanks for taking care of our baby. You were very professional and kind from start to finish. Whenever we need assistance again, you’ll be the first person we reach out to.

Shannon is amazing. She’s so sweet and good with my kitties. They are a tough crowd and she managed to get them to play. Shannon was so flexible. I needed to get her base access and she always showed up on time and communicated with me. Your pets will be in great hands with Shannon!

Shannon was great! She gave detailed notes about every visit and got right back to me when I had questions/concerns. She took pictures which I loved, so I could see how my babies were doing! We will definitely be using her again!

Shannon did an awesome job pet sitting our 4 fur babies. Our dogs welcomed her with open paws and although our one older cat coexisted with her (he only likes one of his humans), the young one finally warmed up to her the last day. She cleaned up after them and left our house as we did when we left. We received daily pics and video of them, she communicated well with us and I think they would be happy if we booked with her again. Thanks Shannon!

Pets

A typical day

My household is often outside. Typically when we are outside, so are our pets. There is a dog park here in our town, that a troop of girl Scouts built. One of our dogs loves to play catch or tug of war. We play often.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Unspayed females accepted, neutered males only
Crate-trained dogs only
Shannon can host up to 3 pets per night
I would prefer to know a dogs demeanor, likes, dislikes, and attitude before sitting him or her. At this time, I do not have breed prefences.
