Loving your babies while you’re away! :)

Pet care experience

Hi everyone! I’m Shannon and I’m 23 years old. I’ve spent my life growing up around all different types of animals: dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, and even a ferret or two. In that time, I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing animals at every stage of their lives. In particular, I’ve cared for dogs while pregnant, and then after birth, loving both the dog and their litter of puppies. I’ve seen dogs through their chaotic teenage years, adult life and then into their senior years and final days. While their beautiful lives are unfortunately brief, it’s always an honour to be part of them, even for the shortest time. I am continuously grateful for the love, learning and experience I get from the time I spend with them, and as you can probably tell, my love for animals means I would love and treat your animals as my own. I started house sitting for friends and family when I was 16, and it’s progressed from there, caring for their pets, taking them on walks, bathing, feeding and generally loving them while their owners were away. I have experience with a variety of breeds and am more than happy to accommodate any quirks they may have, or any requests you may have for me. I also love taking photos of them and sending updates if you want them so feel free to ask me! :)

Shannon looked after my spaniel Bob whilst i was away on holiday. She kept in touch with me daily and sent pictures. I felt completely relaxed whilst i was away and was able to enjoy my trip knowing that he was in safe hands. Would highly recommend Shannon and i will be using her services when im next away. ❤️❤️

Shannon was great, she came to meet us before the sit, she was organised and her communication was excellent. Would definitely book again

Shannon is SUCH a good pet-sitter! She looks after our menagerie whenever we need her to and she is responsible, caring and, most importantly, they love her just as much as she loves them. We don't like having to leave them, but it helps massively to know they are being looked after so well. One of our dogs is quite old and fussy (having to take meds and has a special diet), but Shannon is just so careful with her - I don't have any worries at all. It's a huge relief, leaving them with someone who we can trust. She's also super nice :)

While I don’t offer care in my home, as I have 3 dogs already, I do offer care staying in your home. I will follow any requests and requirements you have for your pet as I want to make you and them as comfortable and happy as possible! :)

Information Shannon P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, behaviours, or quirks that need to be accounted for. I want the very best for them so the best way to do that is to inform me first, and then I’ll be able to make a decision on if I’m best suited to care for them.

A typical day

Most dogs require A LOT of stimulation, often more than we realise. I love giving them lick mats and treat balls for them to use their brains as well as getting a reward from it. I like to try and take dogs on a slightly different walking route, so they have familiarity and safety, as well as new smells to investigate. I also, simply, enjoy playing with them. Whatever their favoured toy or activity is, I like to ask so they can have as much fun as possible.
