Shannon did a wonderful job taking care of our cats while we were on vacation. She was very responsive during setup, she sent pictures and notes after each visit, and went above and beyond expectations. We would highly recommend her services to anyone.

Shannon R. did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of my most beloved 16+ year old dog. She attended to his needs for his diabetes, including administering insulin and monitoring his blood sugar via a monitor. Shannon kept clear, ongoing communication (including pictures) during her caretaking time which eased my anxiety and allowed me to enjoy my trip. Shannon treated my home and my Hurley with love and respect and I would definitely have her back!

Shannon was absolutely great with our fur babies while my husband and I took a weekend trip. She gave us updates and photos of the animals each day and both our dogs were nice and relaxed when we got home. We would use Shannon again for pet sitting!

Shannon was great! Punctual, communicative, and incredibly attentive, she exceeded my expectations. Punctuality was a highlight—every visit was on time. Communication was excellent, with regular updates and adorable pictures during each visit, showcasing genuine care. What I loved most was how she followed my instructions to a T. Professional and dedicated, she ensured every detail was followed. She's also a genuinely nice person. Polite, friendly, and you can tell she's got a soft spot for animals. My dog absolutely loved her.

We had the privilege of having Shannon in our home, caring for our two dogs this past weekend. She did everything we asked her to do, & more. To begin w/she responded quickly to messages prior to the sitting. Then, she arrived on time, sent regular updates, & was attentive to the needs of lew & bets. Our older guy is quite near the end of his long life, & Shannon displayed her knowledge & love of animals in spending the day w/him. We are appreciative. Yes, we plan to use her services again as soon as possible.
