I live in downtown St. Pete, and attend classes throughout the week, but love going on walks throughout my day whenever I can. I will spend a lot of time with your pet, and give them the exercises and care that you recommend is best for them.

Information Shannon S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog has any special needs or medication that will need to be administered. I appreciate being told as much as possible about your pet, so that I can give them the best stay possible and make them comfortable and happy while being away from their people!

A typical day

When I am watching a new pet, our daily schedule varies depending on the owners request. I love going on walks, and playing with your pets, but am also happy to cuddle them on the couch for some down time. It is all dependent on the individual pet and their own needs!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life, and have specifically done pet sitting for 10 years. I love animals and am currently living in St. Pete, as I am a student at USF. I am studying business entrepreneurship, and hope to open my own doggy daycare one day. I care for other peoples pets as well as I care for my own, and will do whatever I can to make your furry friend the most comfortable in my care. I would love to help out with your pets, and have plenty of references for my clients to contact. Thank you!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shannon did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs, Leo and Choco! This was our first time using Rover, and she made the entire experience stress-free. She was very communicative, sent us regular updates and photos, and followed all of our instructions carefully. She was incredibly patient with Leo, our Husky, who can be a little stubborn at times, and she handled everything with great care. We came home to two happy, relaxed dogs, and it was clear they were well looked after. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Shannon again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
