Availability

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.

Information Shannon L. would like to know about your pet

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.

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.

Shannon and her family were wonderful. We were anxious about leaving him for one week, and Shannon sent pictures and supervised his play with other great fur babies. It was a heat wave and the Fourth of July, and the pictures she sent showed he was happy and healthy with his new buddies. They played all the time but did manage to sleep, It was great knowing that he had his vacation while we had ours. Shannon's house is beautiful and cool and there couldn't be a better doggie hotel. He has a family now that we can leave him with when we travel.

Rambo had a great time at Shannon's, she's very experienced and put my mind at ease leaving him for the first time with a sitter. Already booked her again and plan on more bookings in the future.

Shannon has been watching our dogs for years. My current hound dog is a high energy, social gal and she receives fantastic care from Shannon. We tell our dog she is going to summer camp when we drop her off because I know she has a blast and makes lots of friends. I feel so lucky to have such an awesome caretaker for my pup. Highly recommend Shannon!
