Enthusiastic furry friend lover!

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Shasta! I grew up in Southern CA but am a recent graduate with a MA in International Human Rights (University of Denver) & also did my undergrad at DU. I’ve been a big dog owner all my life & pet-sitter for 9 years or so, although I don’t currently have any pets myself. From small to big & young to old (& specific medical needs as well) - I’ve had experience with all types of dogs. Most of my experience is from dog & house sitting for both short & long periods of time. I also love getting some fresh air & taking dogs on long walks (or short ones too if that’s what they’re needing!). I also have a reliable car & a good driving record. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns :) Enjoy your workday or vacation knowing your furry friends are in great hands. Your dog & I will go for walks, play fetch, snuggle and have a great time! I’ll make sure your house is just as you left it and that your dogs will be happy and loved while you’re away. **unfortunately, I’m allergic to cats - if you have a cat please still message me but know I may not be the best fit for them. I’ll be sneezing & sniffling!

Shasta saved the day! When I was late for my engagement party she took care of the dogs pre-home routine. From poop walking to peeing and then crating. I cannot thank her enough

Shasta was so great! She asked active questions about what our 11 year old dog and was so kind and got her a great walk. Will be using regularly to get my pack of 3 walked

Information Shasta S. would like to know about your pet

Are there any aggression issues or triggers I should know about? I have experience owning and working with dogs that have had hard pasts & lingering trauma - it’s so important to make them happy and comfortable!

A typical day

Once I have a cup of coffee I’m ready to go. We will go on long walks, with plenty of poop bags of course! I love to play fetch with the dogs and who doesn’t love a good afternoon nap & cuddle. If you have any training or tricks, let me know & I’ll be sure to implement it on their walks and day-to-day activities.

Im currently on the job hunt following my masters program. My schedule is pretty go with the flow, making scheduling easy! As the sun sets early in the winter, I don’t talk dogs on walks in the dark - for their safety & mine as well!
