Pups Best Friend When You're Away
I've taken care of many dogs from chihuahua's, poodle mixes, corgi's and pointers. I have the most experience with small dogs but would love to take care of your large pups too! I have experience caring for and feeding medication to senior dogs from Muttville in San Francisco and lived and cared for a very anxious corgi for two years so have a lot of experience navigating and understanding when a dog needs space. I cannot wait to meet your pup!

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I asked Shuanna to watch after Moxie, my cat (7 months old), over about a week during the Thanksgiving holiday season. Shaunna was very attentive to Moxie's needs both physically (food and water bowl filling and cleaning, emptying litter box, etc) and mentally (enrichment through multiple play sessions a day). I was most impressed when Shaunna was willing to accommodate a last minute request to dose Moxie with a medication prescribed by the vet right before I went out of town. While this ask would have intimidated most folks, Shaunna was happy to rise for the challenge and asked insightful questions to make sure she was doing everything right. Moxie is my world (and quite the character), so it was a huge relief to have someone as trustworthy as Shaunna look after her while I was out of town!
Shaunna has taken care of my spunky 3 year old puppy since he was just a baby. Your dog will be so cared for with Shaunna as she is genuinely so loving, and experienced with dogs of all sizes and ages. Shaunna can do it all, she is athletic so she can tire out a rambunctious one but she can also keep a mellow grandma calm company. She has volunteered as a foster for geriatric and disabled dogs as well!
Shaunna has taken care of our late elderly cat (19), as well as our current 2 year old cat several times over. the past two years. She has been timely, communicative, and flexible whenever we needed her services. She goes out of her way to spend meaningful time with our kitties, plays with them, and learns all their favorite treats, toys, etc. We wouldn't be able to travel nearly as much without having someone like her to rely on!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a small fenced in yard if the pup needs a quiet enclosed area to play in. I have experience crating anxious corgis and giving medication and am willing to follow any rules you have to ensure good training and safety for your dog. Ultimately, I just want you and your pet to be comfortable!
