While I do have reoccurring weekly fur friends, I also have plenty of free spots to fit in new clients. I'll make sure to fit the needs of any new pets, while also making sure my "regulars" get the time and care they are used to always getting.

Safety, trust & environment

At meet and greets I'll go over any special things that make your home a safe place for your pet (baby gates, a door routine, special treats a pet likes when coming inside etc). I never leave a pet outside alone and will always make sure they are safe to go out before opening the door. I always use my own lead on walks to ensure a safe and secure walk. I always make sure doors are shut as soon as i enter a home. Following any special safety requests from my client also helps keep visits fun and safe . Once i leave the house i’m sure to lock any doors as well.

Hi, my name is Shannon.I have 3 amazing dogs in my family who mean the world to me . They all have their advanced canine good citizen and one of my pups was finishing up his last few hours to become a therapy dog before Covid hit.I have a pretty awesome toddler who is growing to love and respect animals as much as his mommy. I know how to be gentle with shy pets as well as energetic with excited pets who want to go and go . I love cuddles for a pet who just wants to hang out and feel loved, on the flipside i really enjoy being outside with a dog that thrives on movement.I truly love animals and find it so fun learning what makes each one special . I would love make your furry family member feel as special as you do !

Shannon was amazing, she came to our house, spent time with and fed our Standard Poodle and 2 cats. We enjoyed the pictures and the notes each time she visited. Would highly recommend!

Another great experience with Shannon taking care of our two dogs. They love her and we trust her and that makes leaving our dogs and cats so much easier.
