Will run and hike with your dog

Pet care experience

Looking to use my free time caring for other people's dogs! I work remotely most of the week and my schedule is flexible. I am a therapist by profession, but have many years of experience caring for animals. During college, I worked at a pet store and dog shelter. I am very intuitive to animal behavior and would love the responsibility to care for your pet. I am responsible, kind, and will treat your pet as if they were my own! I currently own a 1 year old husky and a young cat. I love to hike and run, so if that's something you would like me to do with your dog, It's not a problem! I have no problem sending as many pictures and videos as you request. I want you to feel comfortable and confident that your dog is in good hands. Work remotely with various start times. If your pet is an early riser, I typically have plenty of morning time to spare. I have a set hour break at 12 with varying other breaks and openings throughout the day. upon booking, I can discuss walks and potty break scheduling as my availability changes a little bit each week. I will care for you pet in a way you think would be safest and most beneficial for your animal. I do have a dog of my own. He is friendly but intact so if this is an issue, I can either crate him or provide animal care in your home.

Shannon does a great job with my cats and always communicates well. Thanks again!

Totally unreliable. Do not trust. I booked Shannon to watch my dog months in advance for the weekend of my wedding. I told her it was for my wedding when I booked. We communicated up until literally the day before the scheduled drop off (which was 2 days before my wedding date). On the drop off date, Shannon ghosted me all day until 8:30pm. At that time, she had her boyfriend call to tell me that they were too busy to watch my dog. Their excuse was that they just moved into a new house - she told me weeks in advance that they were moving and we agreed it still worked. I was left scrambling to find a last minute option in a small town with very limited options. Had she told me in advance, even the day before when we were already communicating, I would have been able to make other arrangements at home before traveling to Steamboat with my dog. Save yourself the trouble and book someone else.

Shannon was amazing. I tipped double what we had discussed because we were so comfortable with her great communication and care.

Shannon did a great job with watching Buddy and communication was excellent during his stay. She gets outside often which is great for active dogs like ours.

Let me know if you dog has special needs or behaviors I should be aware of. I would like to know if your dog gets along with others and any history of aggressive behavior

I love to go for walks and runs throughout the day. I will tire your pup out if that’s something you’d like. I have a dog if my own so if you are comfortable with them playing, I can bring him into the mix.
