I'm currently working part-time from home on a boring computer. Happy to take a break to hang out with your cute animal(s) instead! I usually go on a walk 1-2 hours a day, so why not bring your dog along? I also have a car, so I can get to your neighborhood in a breeze.

Safety, trust & environment

I have experience walking reactive dogs. I am aware of my surroundings and always cross the street safely if I spot another dog approaching. I always communicate with dogs in a friendly and calm demeanor.

Information Shannon S. would like to know about your pet

Every animal has their quirks, let me know what makes your pet unique! Let me know what your pet eats and when they like to eat it. I have experience with senior animals and administering medications to pets.

A typical day

Happy to follow your pets' lead, and put them at ease by keeping to their schedule while you're away. If your dog thinks we should sniff the same bush for 4 minutes, then that's what we'll be doing! We will of course also be doing glamours photoshoots to show all the fun we're having.

Super Excited to Meet Your Dog!

Pet care experience

Animals love me, and I love them! My family has always had dogs, and I was always the one to walk them. Tiny dog? I'll walk them. Medium dog? I'll walk them. Big dog? I'll walk them. REALLY big dog? I'll walk them. I have walked dogs of all sizes, ages, and speeds. No matter the size, dogs respond well to my energy, and they can tell I'm excited to see them. If your dog doesn't like walks, I can stop by and let them out in your backyard and even throw a ball for them 1 to 100 times.
