Shannon did a great job with Bowser. She updated us frequently. She put our mind at ease so we could enjoy our vacation. Bowser looked so happy there and he had so much fun. I would recommend Shannon to anyone looking for a sitter. Thank you so much Shannon.

Another amazing stay for my house cows. I actually think they are a little sad to be home and away from all the fun! Shannon makes it easy to enjoy your time away from your fur kids knowing that they are so well taken care of. Loved getting the photos and videos she sends!

I left my Goldendoodle Louie with Shannon for 12 days while I was out of the country on vacation and I am so grateful to have found her! It has taken me a long time to find the right person and place for my sweet boy and he absolutely had the time of his life at Shannon’s house! He had so many friends and was truly cared for the way I wanted. Thank you for taking such great care of him and he can’t wait to come back next time!

This was the second time in about a month that our dog stayed with Shannon. Just like the first time Clover had a great stay with Shannon and her family. She was treated with kindness and love and we thoroughly enjoyed getting daily updates from her. I would not hesitate at all to recommend Shannon to look after your furry family member.

Another amazing stay with Shannon for my 2 Great Danes. They were very well cared for and I loved getting all of the pictures during their stay! They both take daily medication and that was not an issue for Shannon. I feel so fortunate that she is able to watch my babies!

Schedule

I do work 3 days a week but if I am not home my husband Paul will be and I have a responsible mature 17 year old daughter who has a passion for animals especially for senior dogs. She has rescued senior dogs to give them the last best years of their life and make it amazing. She walks and dog sits the neighborhood dogs when their families go on vacation. She also helps RESUE SERVICES by donating food, blankets, toys or anything they are in need of with the money she earns. She has even donated time to interact with timid, shy, scared dogs. She will help walk, feed, play when I am not home. We are a big family and a good team to watch and love your sweet baby someone is always home unless we run out as a family to dinner,appt, family event. We try to have someone home at all times.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a miniature golden doodle who loves everyone And every dog and would keep your fur babies playful in a big back yard if they like, if not I have a separate area I can keep her. I live at the end of a cul-de-sac with big yard (not all fenced) but I do have 2 separate fenced areas for play time, bathroom breaks and sunshine. we walk our dogs in our neighborhood multiple times a day.. We can Accommodate your pets needs as you prefer.

Pets

A typical day

We love to play in the water hose, we love playing fetch, going to park getting in the creek, but if your baby would rather cuddle at home we can do that as well. We are here to do what your pet likes to do.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
No females in heat
Shannon can host up to 4 pets per night
Let me know if your dog has any special needs, medications, anxiety with thunderstorms, loud noises, just so we know to give extra loving during that time. Your babies may not like cats, or may like shorter walks instead of longer walks.
