Highlights
Pet care experience
A dog lover interested in training!
Dogs have been a constant in my life for as long as I can remember, they’re just my people. I currently have a 32lb Mini Australian Shepherd I’ve raised and trained from the start, so when you say your dog is “a lot,” I genuinely take that as a compliment. Beyond my own pup, I’m on my 5th foster dog, and I gravitate toward the ones others find challenging, the nervous, anxious, or reactive dogs that just need someone with patience and a steady presence. There’s nothing more rewarding than watching a shut-down dog finally come out of their shell. I have a growing passion for dog training and am constantly reading, researching, and putting new skills into practice with my own dog and every foster that comes through my door. It’s something I take seriously and love getting better at every day. My friends and family have made me their go-to sitter not just because I’ll love their dog like my own, but because I bring confidence and calm to every dog I meet, regardless of size, breed, or personality. Honestly, my goal is to meet and care for as many dogs as possible, so your pup is already welcome here. I can’t wait to meet your dog, and hey, you too! 🐾

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Shannon treated my pup like he was one of her own! It’s obvious Shannon loves dogs and will love on your pup if they stay with her. My dog stayed with her about a week and I could tell he had a lot of fun
Shannon took such good care of our pup! Lola was able to play and sniff in the backyard with her dog Moose. Very good communicator and so kind. Definitely recommend her to others!
Shannon and JoJo are simply the best. They are so reliable and we know Juno always has a blast with them!
Shannon and her partner are the ideal pet sitters! This was my first time using Rover for our 8-month-old, busy Australian Shepherd. Shannon took such care with every detail. The kids and I especially enjoyed receiving videos of Chip (our puppy) playing with her incredibly caring and playful dog, Moose! Thank you Shannon!
We were nervous to leave our 10 month old pup, who has some reactivity and anxiety, but he had such a great time with Shannon! She provided us with lots of updates and made sure our pup had a great time!
Shannon is always so reliable and leaves detailed reviews which I enjoy!

Schedule
I work a flexible job and am able to schedule time within my day to take your dog for a walk, to the park, and/or give lots of pets and love!! I would love to practice some training techniques that I am learning in your pup too!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large fenced in yard that is dog safe as well as a dog proofed home! I can crate your dog or whatever is needed. Ideally if your dog stays with me, I’d like to keep it as similar to their home life as possible! My dog has become a great guide and helper for our shy or nervous foster dogs, and I have the ability to separate them if possible.

A typical day
I love to start the day with a nice long walk. We then spend a lot of time in the backyard playing around! I like to use training games to also help your dog exercise their brain. I try to take my dog on a hike at least weekly, and would love to bring yours along with!
