Safety, trust & environment

I unfortunately cannot care for animals in my own home. Because your dog’s health is my top priority, I combine my veterinary nursing background with daily care. I always implement safe routines, including mandatory downtime between meals and exercise to protect against digestive upset and Bloat (at least 60 minutes pre/post meal). You can rest assured your pet is in safe, clinical hands. For any animals on medications that have been prescribed by a veterinarian, please let me know and I can administer these. For any specific rules/requirements, please also let me know.

Information Shannon I. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know about any reactivity, any dislikes or any medical issues i need to be aware of and any food intolerances. I’d like to know what their favourite treat is and things they would like to do too! If owners could also let me know how their pets are with car rides (if i take them somewhere longer to get to).

A typical day

Animals are my entire life, especially working as a veterinary nurse. Enrichment and exercise are very important for them and I will provide as much as the owner would like. This includes play time, training, walking, and even socialisation. If your animal loves treats let me know their favourite ones and I’ll bring some along, likewise if they have a favourite hobby, I will incorporate this. I enjoy coming up with different ways of enrichment for them.

Registered Veterinary Nurse 🐾

Pet care experience

I’m a registered veterinary nurse with experience caring for a wide variety of dogs and cats with different personalities and temperaments. I have worked in multiple veterinary practices and have a strong understanding of animal behaviour, body language, and welfare, including supporting nervous or fearful animals. I graduated from university with a Bachelors degree in veterinary nursing, and during my time at university, I worked in a veterinary practice, undertook a volunteering programme in Tenerife at an animal rescue and rehabilitation centre, and started up my rover/sitting services. I have had experience with my own animals including dogs, cats, rats, hamsters, horses, parrots, and have nursed rabbits and guinea pigs within a clinical setting. I offer dog walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting in owners’ homes. Drop-ins can include playtime, feeding, toileting, and enrichment, and I’m happy to incorporate basic training such as practising commands, loose-lead walking, and recall during walks or visits. I can also provide routine husbandry support, such as nail clipping or basic grooming, provided your pet is comfortable and it can be done safely without restraint. I’m confident administering prescribed medications as directed by your vet. Some additional services (husbandry and training) may incur a small extra fee. I’m generally available all day, everyday, with the occasional responsibilities. I’m always happy to discuss individual needs and find an arrangement that works for both you and your pet. My service area covers locations within approximately 20 miles. Travel within 10 miles (round trip) is included. Any additional mileage is charged at £0.55 per mile to cover travel costs and vehicle expenses.

It was lovely to see Charlie starting to be more familiar with Shannon. She followed instructions well for his dinner and looked after him with care.

Shannon was amazing with our three dogs (2 labradors, 1 greyhound). She went over and above what was expected. The house was neat and tidy when we got back and the doggos were well looked after and in great spirits. Our three absolutely adore her and we will definitely be using her again for future pet sits.

Our first experience with Shannon was wonderful. She did a drop in and walk with our boy Baloo who can be a bit of a handful! Shannon kept us updated and sent photos which was great. We will definitely be booking in with Shannon again. 😊

We really appreciated Shannon meeting with us the day before the sit to get to know each other and Charlie. She was very calm with Charlie as he is still getting used to new people looking after him. Our house was cleaner and tidier than when we left it too!
