Shannon can care for
Availability
I work in an office Monday through Thursday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with about a 30-minute commute each way. Before and after work, as well as Fridays, weekends, and evenings, I have a flexible schedule and make it a priority to keep pets on their normal routines. I know how important consistency, patience, and communication are, especially for senior pets, puppies, or dogs who thrive on structure. I'll always care for your pets as if they were my own and keep you updated while you're away.

Safety, trust & environment
I currently have a fully fenced yard and a doggie door available for dogs who are comfortable using one, allowing for safe outdoor access and potty breaks throughout the day. I always prioritize safety, supervision, and making pets feel comfortable in a calm home environment. I also understand how important consistency is for pets, so I do my best to follow each pet owner’s routines, preferences, boundaries, and care instructions as closely as possible. Whether your pet is high-energy, prefers a quieter environment, or needs a little extra patience and reassurance, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
Information Shannon T. would like to know about your pet
Before your stay, I appreciate knowing any important details about your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, personality, preferences, or any special care instructions. If your pet needs to be fed separately, has food sensitivities, takes medications, or has specific routines that help them feel comfortable, I’m happy to accommodate those needs. I also love learning what makes your pet happiest, whether that’s a favorite toy, treats, sleeping routine, or special activity. My goal is to help pets feel as comfortable, safe, and at home as possible while you’re away.
A typical day
A typical day with me includes plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for throughout the day. I love playing fetch, going for walks, and spending quality time with pets based on their individual energy levels and personalities. I also understand that every pet is different, so I try to match their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your dog enjoys being active, prefers relaxing and snuggling, or just likes having someone nearby, I focus on making them feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

Pet care experience
I’ve loved and cared for animals my entire life, from family pets to farm animals, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. I currently have three miniature dachshunds of my own, including a 17-year-old senior dog and two younger dogs I raised from puppies, so I’m very comfortable caring for dogs in all life stages. I grew up raising sheep and rabbits through 4-H for 12 years, and I also spent time living and working on my in-laws’ cattle ranch, which gave me hands-on experience caring for animals of all sizes and temperaments. I’m comfortable with high-energy puppies, senior pets, and pets who just need a little extra patience and attention. I know how important it is for pet owners to feel confident while they’re away, so I focus on providing safe, dependable, and loving care while keeping pets comfortable in their normal routine. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing and snuggling, I’m happy to match their needs and personality. I also have experience caring for a variety of other animals, including bottle feeding, so feel free to ask about any specific care needs.
Reviews
We used Shannon while on vacation and she was great with our dog. She was quick with responses and we were able to meet ahead of time. We loved getting updates and photos from each visit.
Shannon is great and is super helpful when I have a last minute need for someone to go check on my pup! Sends a great report and lots of pictures!!
Shannon was a pleasure to work with, gave meaningful updates, and helped put away my meals in the fridge that were delivered while i was away. I would definitely have her watch my fur baby again!
She was super great! We had to book unexpectedly and last minute and even without a prior meet up she was amazing and took great care of my dog!
