Former groomer and love all breeds!

Pet care experience

I’m a graduate student with a long history of working with animals from dogs and cats to snakes and raccoons. While I don’t expect to find any raccoons on here, I did wildlife rescue and rehab for several years, caring for orphaned and injured babies until they were ready to be released. I’ve also spent time as a professional dog groomer and have worked in the aquarium industry as well (so I can take care of your fish tanks)! I’m comfortable working with all breeds and have plenty of experience with dogs that might be wary of strangers. I also volunteer at ACCT to make sure our homeless buds are getting plenty of love and scratchies as well. I currently live with my hairless guinea pig and while I can’t have a dog of my own, I like to spend my time around animals and thought this would be a great way to do that. I’m comfortable working with just about any kind of pet and can accommodate those with special needs. I have a flexible schedule, reliable transportation, and I’m more than happy to send updates on your little ones via photos, videos, or simple text messages.

Shannon was available with short notice and flexible to arrange meeting. She took care of our very active German Shepard. Took her for walks and gave a good report at the end of her stay.

Shannon was amazing. I needed a very last minute dog walker and she really came through for me. I got a plenty of pics of my happy pup and he got a nice walk around the neighborhood.

Shannon was amazing in taking care of our dog Marty. Even though, we reached out to her on short notice, she happily agreed to stop by for two home visits. Her communication with us was very detailed and she even send us photos of Marty to show us that he was doing fine. Sometimes our dog can be nervous in meeting new people, but it seemed like Shannon knew exactly what to do to quickly make him feel comfortable. She went above and beyond during her visit; taking him out to bathroom, feeding him, giving him water, and even playing fetch with him. We definitely recommend having her take care of your pets. Shannon is very reliable, flexible, accommodating and above all, she loves and cares for animals.

Shannon would be a major asset to Rover. She has worked in the pet industry, hands on with dogs and cats in the past and is the first person I call when I need help with my pets. Her experience is priceless! She knows how to approach animals and make them feel comfortable right away. More than that, she loves them and genuinely cares for all the pets she comes into contact with. She really understands how to communicate with pet parents. She would be perfect for this gig and I’m positive she would have many repeat customers! Thank you!
