Pet care experience

Experienced & highly rated 🐶❤️

I have had dogs for all 32 years of my life! I also have 14 years of experience caring for cats and 5 years experience with Guinea Pigs. I am good with any breed and size of dog. I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs as they are often so gentle and sweet. I have experience with diabetic animals and administering medicines. I really enjoy making sure that your dog is well taken care of and in a safe environment at all times! I will follow any and all directions you leave for me. I am patient with animals, I know they can make messes, tug on leashes, and sometimes misbehave. I enjoy providing in home play, cuddles, and light grooming such as brushing. I am available for overnight in home care for clients in the Graham/Spanaway/Puyallup/Eatonville area. I usually have a pretty open schedule. *At this time I am unable to walk large dogs, or go up a flight of stairs due to a recent injury.*

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I do not offer sitting in my home since I live with others, and multiple animals in my home. I also just prefer to pet sit in the dogs regular environment to keep them at ease. I like to do a meet and greet prior to agreeing to the booking. During the meeting I like to discuss feeding schedules, regular and emergency vet preferences, local emergency contact, and the do’s and don’ts of what the pet is allowed to do in the home.

Shannon has taken great care of our two corgis since they were pups. One is two years old and the other one is 11 months. She sends me lots of pics and keeps me updated daily. She has stayed in our home and treats it like her own. She cleans up and leaves it just the way she found it. My girls love her. She spoils them with lots of snuggle time and even lets them sleep with her. I would highly recommend her to take care of your fur babies.

As always I Ella looks forward to Shannon coming and spending time with her. Shannon always takes care of the pups, makes their priorities first, and leave the house exactly if she found it or a little bit better. It is great to have this piece of mind when you’re out of town.

Shannon did a wonderful job. Our pups are happy and seem to have enjoyed their own little vacation from us. We will use her again, for sure.

I can’t say enough great things! Shannon was amazing with our pets. She gave me such peace of mind that the pets were being cared for. Will definitely be using her again.

I am currently working part-time and mostly from home so I have a lot of open availability. I do have some appointments I attend, however I am usually never away for more than 4 hours. If I need to be away longer I always reach out to the client first.

Before dog sitting I would like to know what makes the dog happy and if there are any behavioral issues. I also want to know if the dog has an important medical conditions, an emergency contact number and a preferred vet in the area for emergencies.
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.
