Seasoned Pet Caregiver || Fenced Ba

Pet care experience

I know it's hard to find trustworthy help these days, but if you give me a chance I will not let you down. I have a part time job at Lowe's, so rest assured I am local and reliable. I've been working for Lowes for almost two years now and am saving up for tuition. I've worked for Walmart, Dollar Tree, and have volunteered at the Bulloch Humane Society and University Animal Hospital. I assisted in giving baths, administering medication, and of course food and general post-anesthesia care. As you can tell, I love all kinds of animals. I have had a few cats, ducks, turtles, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, koi fish, goldfish, fancy goldfish, etc, and of course, dogs! I'm always available to give your cat/dog/or any other animal the love and care they want and deserve. I am a little shy in person but am hardworking, dedicated, and always willing to go the extra mile for your dog/cat/animal! Feel free to message me any time for any questions you may have regarding my qualifications and/or experience with animals.

Shannon is very great with dogs and other animals. I've known Shannon since childhood, and I've personally gotten to see her raise dogs, guinea pigs, turtles, and fishes throughout the years. She's very sensitive to her animals' needs, and she's always making sure that they're well-fed, groomed, and active. Shannon is also very knowledgeable about raising and caring for animals. She's always looking for new ways to care for animals. On a personal level, she has given me advice about caring for dogs and cats, such as what treats would be good for them or what to do when they are getting sick. If you're looking for someone to look over your pets, I highly recommend Shannon as a pet sitter. She's very much an outdoors person, and she loves to be highly involved with an animal's daily routine. She'll definitely keep your pet in good company.

Shannon has been a miracle worker with my animals. When I had to have surgery she was there to care for my little doggie all the way through, even taking him for vet visits. Her responsiveness and attention to detail was very important and made both me and my pet feel more at ease. She listened to all my instructions with a great atitude and a big smile.My pet loves her and so will yours.

Safety, trust & environment

I've had the same goldfish and turtle for several years, I've had Dallas for thirteen, Jake for two, and my guinea pig for four years now. I make my goldfish and turtle repashy gel food weekly to keep their digestive system healthy and to decrease the chances of swim bladder disease. My guinea pig has 8sqft of living space, and gets playtime in the right weather. Daily spot cleaning is a necessity, and hay is given every day. My dogs frequent the dog park so I would be more than happy to take your pup to the park if needed. I love to read and study up on things so I can be the best possible me for my animals. I hope that you see how much they are loved and how much I would do for your animals.

Information Shannon M. would like to know about your pet

All dogs are welcome! If your pup is food aggressive, just let me know and I will feed them separately. If they dislike male or female dogs in particular, hate hats, hoodies, or whatever silly quirks they have- just let me know! Other animals: If you would like me to keep your guinea pigs/hamsters/snakes/fish/ or any other aviary/exotic type animals, they would be kept separate from any other animals and taken care of per your instructions. I have a spare room that is separate from the rest of the house and is void of other animals, where they can be kept.

A typical day

Every dog or pet is different as for what they find fun, of course. Whether it's throwing a frisbee, ball, or just needing lots of love and attention, I will happily give it to them.

Availability

I will work with you to find time to tend to your animals on your time. This means that I will come before or after work if need be, so don't be afraid to reach out even if my schedule says I'm busy on certain days. I am listing certain days as unavailable for your convenience, but I am always willing to work with people, especially when you have to choose between taking your vacation and staying home with your pets. Pets are a responsibility, but no one should have to do it alone and without reliable care.
