Pet care experience

Available Last Minute!

I’ve always had animals in my life and the best job I ever had was working at a vet clinic as a kennel tech. I currently only have 2 cats, but I have experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, fresh/saltwater tanks, birds, rodents, & tarantulas. I have recent experience giving medication oral and subcutaneous to both dogs and cats. I have a history of caring for special needs or sick pets and am super comfortable with any medication needs. I have experience with a wide variety of behavioral needs as well including reactive and fearful pets. I currently pet sitting full time so I am generally very available. I am unable to sleep over as my own cat has some health issues, but I will always make sure to provide early morning and late night potty breaks and play time to make sure your best friend gets the love and attention they need. I am passionate about animal behavior and am comfortable with nervous dogs or animals that are learning new behaviors. I am fluent in cat body language and enjoy the patience it sometimes takes to make new feline friends.

Shannon watched Squeeks while we were out of town and was great. We didn’t have to worry at all and she sent updates. Squeeks can be reactive but he loves her.

Our dog can be reactive and Shannon handled it great! He barked a little when he first met her but she was calm and won him over. She did some of his favorite activities with him and provided updates.

Shannon was very communicative, reliable, and considerate. She took care of my two cats (drop in visits) for a few weeks, and because she was so attentive and reliable I didn't need to worry at all! I would absolutely recommend Shannon!

Shannon was fantastic! Based on all the pictures she sent, our cat had an awesome time with her. Extremely responsive, adaptable, and sweet! 10/10 would suggest

Shannon is great. Our dog Rosie gets very anxious when we leave and she can be high maintenance. Shannon was amazing. She sent lots of pics of her and Rosie and they bonded quickly. She took great care of our house. I would love to have Shannon every time we go out of town.

I always like to know your cats hiding spots and anything too look out for health wise while your gone. I’d like to know how your dog does on a leash, around other dogs, and around strangers so I can ensure they feel safe and happy at all times. I’m happy to water plants or grab mail while you’re out of town.
