Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog to keep your best friend company. We live in a nice safe neighborhood with lots of walking trails. As a retired registered nurse, I am happy to dispense meds if needed. I am very understanding of dogs that may be anxious and need extra TLC. I provide a calm, low stress environment with lots of love. A crate is available if you wish along with lots of toys and blankets to help your pet feel at home. I like to send photos and updates daily. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup : )

Information Shannon P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any behavioral, medical issues or special needs that I should be aware of. Does your dog play well with others or does he/she exhibit food or toy aggression and need to be kept away from other dogs? Safety is my biggest priority and I take pride in providing a safe place for your pet.

A typical day

I am fortunate to live in an area that has lots of trails but can also take your dog on a hike to San Elijo hills, Elfin forest, Batiquitos lagoon or a long walk on the beach upon request as well.

Pet care experience

Hi, I am very experienced in caring for dogs of every age...from puppies to seniors. Currently, I have a 4 year old Bernedoodle named Cash. He very sweet & lovable. Our sweet almost 18 year old Rocky passed away last May. I know Cash would love to have some friends to play with. The house is not quite the same without our sweet old friend. In the past I have also had bunnies, turtles, fish, sheep, chickens, and a cat. I would be happy to care for yours at your home and possibly mine. Lets discuss especially if you have chickens and sheep HAHA😆 I love and miss farm animals and wish i had non HOA property so I could have my own.
