Pet care experience

Stress free dog care

I take them on walks. I stay at home and have all the attention to attend to your dog(s). I have watched a corgi (actually watched him 3 times), shih Tzu's, Lab, bull mas., weiner dogs and many other breeds. However I have been raised with small to large dogs (st. bernards & great danes). About this sitter: If you would like your dog or other animal to stay home for more secure feeling I am able to drop in to check on that animal, feed, take out and play. Why I love dog sitting Since I was born! Even though I have a fence I still keep an eye on them. I have a small dog door but plan on also getting a bigger one. *If for any reason your dog shows agression, I will have you pick them up or there must be a back up plan; I will not tolerate any agression towards my animals, my family, or myself.*.

Came on a last minute request in a thunderstorm to the hotel I was staying at because I had tweaked my back. She was lovely and Bo liked her immediately. If I find myself in Rapid city again, I'll definitely use her. Thanks Shannon! So much!

Doggy Day Care • Dec 12, 2022

Shannon is seriously awesome! She takes awesome care of my very young and sometimes bad aussie puppy and acts like it's the easiest thing ever. And she always gives me the best updates! You can just tell she cares about your dog and it takes all my worry away :)

Shannon took excellent care of Daphne. She was prompt in coming to our initial get acquainted visit. Kept us informed on the care she gave Daphne. Professional. Willing to go above and beyond. Very satisfied.
