Safety, trust & environment

I would love to give your pets the attention, snuggles and exercise they need. I will happily feed them, check and fill water, clean up after them, and give them medications as needed.

Information Shannon M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about your dog's or cat's needs, preferences and temperament so that they can get what they need out of a visit or walk. I am also happy to look in on other critters as well. I have experience with all kinds.

A typical day

I love spending time with animals more than people, to be honest. I would love to play tug-of-war or fetch, snuggle and get them out to sniff and explore. Making them happy makes me happy.

Lifelong animal lover and caregiver

Pet care experience

I’m a responsible stay-at-home mom with older children and decades of experience caring for pets, as part of our family as well as those of friends, family and neighbors. I've volunteered by walking pups in animal shelters and provided pet therapy with my fur babies at a residential psychiatric facility. Over the years I've cared for dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, amphibians, fish, hamsters and hermit crabs. I provide reliable drop-ins and dog walks focused on safety, consistency, and your pet’s specific needs - whether that is exercise or snuggles (or both). I’m detail-oriented, respectful of your home, and committed to clear communication. Your pet will receive attentive care and you’ll receive timely updates after every visit.

We booked Shannon again for a few drop in visits for our boys, and she was wonderful as always! Her report cards are always adorable and our pups love her.
