Genuinely excited to meet your pet!
Pet care experience
I have over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I also have 3 years experience working at 2 different animal hospitals and 3 years experience working at a dog daycare as a client care coordinator and puppy preschool supervisor. Special skills include caring for puppies and their specific needs, caring for senior dogs including administering medications, helping dogs with mobility issues, etc. Dog enrichment is my passion! I have a ton of dog toys (that are cleaned regularly!) and assure you I will find your dogs play style, and maybe even discover a hidden play style you didn’t know about!
Reviews
Shannon is an absolute natural with animals! We trust her implicitly with our dog! She treats them like her very own at all times! Our dog loves staying with her!

Information Shannon M. would like to know about your pet
Tell me about your dog! My goal is to make them as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Your vacation should be their vacation as well! In order to set both me and your pet up for a successful sleepover, tell me what a normal day looks like for them. What types of activities do they enjoy? Favorite snacks? Do they have any limitations or restrictions when in comes to what they can eat or their mobility level? Is your dog interested in engaging with other dogs? Anything else that might be relevant or interesting to know about your pet!
A typical day
Dog engagement and enrichment is my passion. I believe every dog has an inner puppy inside of them that can be pulled out with the right activity, an exciting toy or environment, a friendly playmate or verbal encouragement from yours truly. I have a huge supply of dog toys, access to dog beaches and walking paths, as well as a dog of my own who loves meeting new canine companions.
