I am currently working a full time job however that job does give me a pretty flexible schedule as I work Monday thru Friday 7am-3pm! If you need me to stay over at your house while you are away this would mean your dog is covered for morning, late afternoon and night! If you just need a pop in or a walk during the week I’m free from 3pm-10pm. Weekends I can absolutely pop in anytime for visits/ walks! If I am house sitting for you, please know that I will also need to be abled to leave for errands or to go to the gym!

Safety, trust & environment

I care for my clients pet best in their own home so it will be less stressful on the animal. I’m willing to do whatever you need to keep your fur baby happy and healthy :) Additionally, I strive to be very clean and will always make sure to clean up after myself (wash dishes, wash bedding I’ve used ect.) I am a non-smoking, quiet, and trustworthy individual.

Information Shannon H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of. Also, while I love large breed dogs please let me know how they walk on leashes as this would help me determine a good place to go on walks at.

A typical day

I would love to be abled to take your dog out for a nice run or walk around the neighborhood (as long as it's not too hot!) Maybe even take them to the local dog park or go for a relaxing stroll around the lake to give them the mental and physical stimulation they require. A pup cup could also be in the play date itinerary if I get the ok from mom an/or dad! :)

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Shannon and I’ve been around animals my entire life however I have dog and cat sit for many families (and still do!) I love all animals and my family currently has two big Newfoundland dogs, cats, parrots, and a chinchilla! Additionally, I am an active volunteer for an equine sanctuary that provides a safe and soft landing for equines and other animals. There I partake in day to day chores and even enjoy doing some of the medical tasks like medication! I also am a very active individual and go frequent the gym or go on runs often! I think I could be a big asset in giving your fur baby extra care and attention they deserve while you are away! Please note the first meet and greet is always free but anything more will need to be done as a “drop in visit”!

Shannon took care of my cat Midnight for a week, and I am so grateful. I received daily pictures and updates. I will definitely use Shannon again in the future.

Shannon is truly one of a kind, and I cannot recommend her enough. From the moment she started caring for my dachshund, Willa, it was clear that this isn’t just a job for her, it’s something she genuinely cares about. Willa can be a little particular (as dachshunds tend to be!), but Shannon has been incredibly patient, attentive, and intuitive with her. She goes above and beyond to make sure Willa is not only safe, but happy, comfortable, and loved. I always get thoughtful updates, photos, and little details that show Shannon is really paying attention to Willa’s personality and needs. What stands out most is the level of trust I feel. Leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, but with Shannon, I have complete peace of mind. I know Willa is being treated like family, maybe even a little spoiled in the best way. If you’re looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and genuinely amazing with animals, Shannon is it. Willa and I are both so lucky to have found her.
