Pets

Knowledgable, responsible dog lover

Pet care experience

I am a lifelong dog parent with two wonderful rescues. I am first aid and CPR certified, can administer medication and have been certified for small animal (cats and dogs) massage and canine behavior. Exercise and stimulation are important to ensure dogs do not become bored and destructive or depressed. No two dogs are the same. One of my dogs loves to run while the other loves to swim! I have experience with my own and working with other reactive animals so you can trust me with your pets, whatever their personality may be. What one enjoys, another may not so I need to understand how your dog interacts with humans and other animals and how they play. I look forward to caring for your dog!

Shannon was excellent with our two dogs. They have very different needs and she was intuitive and attentive with both of them. They got A LOT of attention and exercise. I felt confident that our pups were loved and cared for. Grateful!
