I will love your pet as my own.

Pet care experience

I love all breeds, shapes, and sizes of dogs, cats, and small animals. I will make sure your friend gets the care and exercise they need while you are busy or away. I have a large fenced yard that is great for any dog. I also live near Bear Creek park and can take them there for play and socialization if requested. I am a very calm and patient person who is in good physical condition. I am comfortable handling multiple dogs at once. I understand the extra needs of small dogs. I will be happy to learn about your critter's specific needs and will baby them as you do. For care in my home I can take care of dogs up to 40 pounds. Dogs that come to my home must be cat friendly and willing to ignore a cat that isn't interested in playing. I am also available to take your dog or cat to routine vet or groomer visits or provide pick up and drop off services.

As always, Shannon was a wonderful pet sitter. She takes excellent care of our cats while we're away. She's reliable, responsible, and gives prompt replies when we reach out. We definitely will be using her again for our pet sitting!

As always, Shannon was once again reliable, prompt and regularly sent pictures of Dexter during their daily visits. She makes my travels free from worry regarding Dex’s care, safely and sanity. Thank you, Shannon! 😊

Shannon was gentle with my scared pups and took great care of them. I will call on her again!

Shannon was wonderful with our 5 cats while we headed up to Chicago for a long weekend away. She was very communicative and prompt. She spent a good amount of time with the kitties as well. I would definitely use her again when we're out of town to watch our pets!

I'd love to hear about any quirks or special preferences your pet friend has. I'll do my best to maintain their routine and make them feel safe and loved.
