Highlights
Pet care experience
Paws & Pastures of Kent Island
I have been passionately caring for dogs, cats, and horses since high school, building years of hands-on experience with animals of all kinds. I worked professionally as a dog walker and pet sitter for an Annapolis-based pet care company, providing reliable services to pet owners throughout Annapolis and Arnold. While attending college full time, I also worked as a barn assistant at a large horse boarding facility in Sandy Spring, where I gained extensive experience in daily horse care and stable management. After moving to Stevensville, I continued working as a barn assistant for two horse farms caring for multiple horses. My lifelong love for animals, combined with my professional experience, allows me to provide attentive, compassionate, and dependable care for both household pets and horses.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I strive to create a calm, trustworthy, and stress-free environment where pets feel secure, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. I am attentive to each pet’s individual needs, carefully follow owner instructions, and maintain a clean, safe environment during every visit, walk, or overnight stay.
Ratings and reviews
Tucker was provided with great overnight care! Shannon was communicative and sent pics of our sweet boy while we were vacationing. She collected our mail and kept the house in great shape!

Shannon is a pleasure to deal with and it's clear that she loves animals. She was very communicative with messages and photos. I will definitely book Shannon again!

Shannon M. cancelled a booking 4 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Shannon was a great communicator both before and during her stay with Captain. She provided reassuring texts and photos while I was away. Would highly recommend and will definitely use again.

Shannon did not walk my dog Guss. we could not work out schedule. Can not review her service or give over all rating.

What a relief to know our senior cat received such loving care. Shannon is kind, considerate, attentive, and reliable! Loved the photo updates. Will definitely book again. Thanks again!

Schedule
I'm currently working as a Queen Anne's County Park Ranger part-time and my shifts are 8 hours long up to 4 or more days a week. During my work shifts I can provide a potty break if your dog cannot wait a full 8 hours.
