Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets with an experienced, holistic approach. When I see they need more regulation, pets, play, walks, etc. I support that. I respect routines for the home and the pet.

Information Shannon M. would like to know about your pet

My goal is to offer accessible sitting to all pet parents. Any chronic conditions / support needs let me know, please don’t feel you have to hide them. I’m comfortable with supporting their needs and have the patience to meet them where they’re at.

A typical day

I’ve played hide and seek with a cat, fetch with pups, clicker training, air disc shooters, cat or dog tv, and other games. I’m not really one to get embarrassed or feel burdened with play so feel free to ask!

Pet care experience

10 years experience includes walking, boarding, and sitting. I spent 9 months pet sitting dogs and cats across Europe through Trusted Housesitters. My longest sit was 3 months! I’m comfortable with all ages and support needs for animals with chronic conditions/disabilities. I enjoy cleaning and following a routine for an easy transition at the start and end of a sit. Feel free to reach out with questions or inquiries :)

This was our first time leaving our anxious puppy with a housesitter. Shannon was wonderful! She is so in tune to all things 'dog' and truly put our minds at ease. She was meticulous with his care and schedule, and so warm and affectionate. And our house was perfect. We highly recommend Shannon and can't wait to have her here again!

Shannon was amazing with my Boston Terrier, Demi! She kept me updated, followed all of Demi’s routines, and gave her plenty of love and attention. It made being away so much easier knowing Demi was in such good hands. I will definitely use her again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
