Pups are my full-time focus, so I spend most of my day giving them plenty of attention. I map my schedule around your pup's routine, including meals, walks, playtime, and, duh, naps. Last-minute calls or texts don't stress me out; consider me your neighborhood pup 911. I have a very flexible schedule and am around throughout the day, including your birthday, my birthday, and the Super Bowl (which should be a national holiday by now). Because pet care is my full-time focus, your pup won't be left alone for long and will get plenty of attention, walks, and time to settle in and feel at home.

Safety, trust & environment
Safety, structure, and comfort are my top priorities when welcoming pups into my home. I keep things calm and low-stress: no pressure, no force, just patience, good vibes, and treats. • Pet CPR & First Aid and Fear Free® certified, with a focus on maintaining a calm environment where pups feel safe and secure. • I primarily host small and medium pups (up to 50 lbs) and only accept friendly, socialized dogs who are fully house-trained, comfortable walking on leash, and non-reactive toward other dogs and people. • My home is best suited for easygoing pups without significant behavioral or training needs. This allows me to provide a relaxed, low-stress experience for every pup in my care. • My space is quiet, clean, and dog-friendly, with plenty of supervision throughout the day. After 11+ years in West Hollywood, I also know the neighborhood like the back of my hand. Your pup will get plenty of exercise and come home tired in the best way.

Information Shannon H. would like to know about your pet
To help make sure we’re a great fit, please answer a few questions about your pup: • Has your pup had any indoor potty accidents within the past 12 months, either at home or while staying somewhere unfamiliar? • Does your pup regularly pull on walks, or can they be comfortably and safely walked on a loose leash? • Do they bark, lunge, growl, or become difficult to manage when they see other dogs or people? Are they a known flight risk or prone to slipping out of their collar or harness? • How do they react to bikes, scooters, skateboards, loud noises, or traffic? • Will your pup readily take treats from someone they've just met? Any dietary restrictions, allergies, or foods they can't have? • Any resource guarding around food, toys, furniture, or personal space? • What's the most challenging part of caring for your pup? Knowing more about your pup upfront helps me determine if my home and care style are the right fit.
A typical day
A typical day includes morning, midday, and evening walks, regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I tailor each day to your pup’s energy level, whether that means indoor play, longer neighborhood walks, or relaxed strolls where your pup gets to stop and sniff 52 things. Between adventures, pups get plenty of quiet time to rest, decompress, and feel at home. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including meal and walk times, to keep their stay predictable, comfortable, and low-stress.

Pet care experience
Pups truly bring me joy. I’ve been the go-to person for 15+ years for friends, neighbors, and colleagues, somehow becoming everyone’s emergency contact for their pups. I treat every pup with the kindness, patience, and attention they deserve. Every pup gets treated like they own the place, because they pretty much do. My home is best suited for fully house-trained, easygoing pups who are comfortable on leash and enjoy a calm, relaxed environment. To maintain a low-stress environment, I do not use crates in my home, and pups do not need to be crate-trained to stay with me. They’re welcome to curl up, relax, and inevitably steal my spot on the couch (or bed).
Reviews
Shannon was amazing with my dog Koda! She’s a bit shy but it seemed like she warmed up really quickly to her. He is a great communicator, punctual, very prepared, and understanding. He goes above and beyond to understand your dogs personality and routine. I will definitely be booking with him again next time I go out of town! I’m so glad I found a sitter that I can trust with Koda
Shannon was excellent when we left our 2 pups at the last minute. The communication and updates were consistent and kept our minds at ease that our pets were well taken care of. I would highly recommend Shannon to care for your pets!
I’ve known Shannon for 20 years and he’s always had a natural gift with dogs. His calm yet playful energy has made my pup, Baxter, enjoy every interaction. Baxter can take a bit to warm up to people but he’s always felt comfortable around Shannon. Now they are best buds! Shannon’s reliable, on-time, communicative and easy to coordinate with. Without hesitation I would (continue to) recommend him to anyone seeking a loving and dependable dog caregiver - which I’ve already been doing for years!
