Pet care experience

Your Pet's New Best Friend

As a kid, I helped care for our family cats and learned early what it means to be responsible for animals. In high school and college, I started overnight dog sitting for my aunt, which helped me build confidence and consistency in caring for pets in someone else’s home. As an adult, I’ve continued pet sitting for three main families, becoming someone they regularly rely on for trustworthy, attentive care. I’m calm, dependable, and comfortable with routine care, overnight stays, and making sure pets feel safe and well cared for while their owners are away.

I highly recommend Shauna to care for your sweet fur babies. She has a dog and 2 cats of her own, she adores them and treats them like family. She has also cared for my dog and my 3 cats. I would not trust my pets to just anyone. But when I travel and she cares for my babies, I feel totally at ease that they are in the best possible hands. She is prompt and efficient as well as very trustworthy. Leaving you pets while away from home can be very stressful, let Shauna ease your stress and care for your pets.

Shauna Faiist is a reliable, trustworthy, loving person. She grew up with dogs and cats and loved and cared for them all her life. Very sweet. I highly recommend her for Rover. She has a big heart and will spoil and love your dogs, cats, any pet. Very punctual. Will be a great asset to Rover. From: Chris C

Very pleased with the care and dedication that I saw from Shauna. She was professional, thorough and did a great job of communicating with me about how things were going while I was away. She went above and beyond and I could tell that she genuinely cared. Highly recommend!

Schedule

Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine since I work part time and have a flexible schedule. I already spend a lot of my day being active with my own dog—we typically go on 2–3 mile walks daily, which I really enjoy. I love being outdoors and keeping pets engaged and exercised, but I’m just as happy providing calm, relaxed care for pets who prefer a slower pace or more cuddles and downtime. My routine naturally revolves around making sure animals feel comfortable, cared for, and well looked after.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a large, secure, privacy-fenced yard where dogs can safely spend time outside, and our neighborhood is quiet and safe for walks. I always prioritize safety, supervision, and making sure pets are comfortable and stress-free in my care. I’m also very happy to care for pets in their own home—whether that’s letting dogs out for potty breaks, going on walks in their favorite areas, feeding meals and treats, or spending time giving cats attention and cuddles. I follow each pet’s routine closely so they feel secure and cared for in their familiar environment.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day includes plenty of attention, activity, and relaxation based on each pet’s needs. For dogs, that usually means walks (my dog and I typically do 2–3 miles a day), time outside in our large fenced yard, and playtime to keep them engaged and happy. For more laid-back pets, I’m just as happy spending time relaxing, giving pets and cuddles, and making sure they feel comfortable and at ease. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, and rest so they feel secure while you’re away. Whether your pet loves to stay active or prefers a slower pace, I make sure they get the care, attention, and love they’re used to.

It’s helpful for me to know any important details about your pet ahead of time so I can provide the best care possible. This includes their normal routine, feeding schedule, behavior around new people or other animals, any medical needs or medications, allergies, fears (like storms or loud noises), and anything that helps them feel comfortable and safe. I also appreciate knowing their favorite activities, walking preferences, and any rules you’d like me to follow in your home.
