Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Shauntia quickly became our dog's best friend, and I am sure that your dog will luv her too! Miles is our 170 lb. Great Dane (lovable, gentle, but BIG) so we were impressed with how quickly Shauntia built a great rapport with him. When you invite Shauntia to care for your pet, you can be sure that it wont simply be a "visit" but it will be time that your pet will genuinely enjoy spending with her.
We had a great experience with shauntia! my dogs took to her right away when meeting her, so I knew it was going to be a good fit! Shauntia was punctual, communicative, and great with the pups! I definitely felt like I could trust her! Will definitely use her again in the future!
I highly recommend Shauntia as a pet caregiver! She is responsible, loving, and truly cares about the well-being of animals. My pets always feel safe and happy under her care.

Schedule
As a college athlete and basketball player, I have a busy and demanding schedule. Balancing classes, practice, and games requires careful planning, but I make sure to carve out dedicated time for pet care because I genuinely enjoy it. Walking and sitting with dogs provides a refreshing break from my routine, helping me unwind and refocus. I typically schedule pet care around my practices, classes, and study sessions, ensuring I can provide the attention and energy every pet deserves. It’s a rewarding way to manage my time while balancing academics, athletics, and my love for animals.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets through Rover, I focus on creating a comfortable, safe, and fun environment—whether in my home or at a client’s home. For dog walking, I make sure each walk is tailored to the dog’s needs, energy level, and personality. I choose safe, dog-friendly routes and keep the walks engaging with some playtime and treats (if allowed by the owner). For dog sitting in a client’s home, I maintain their routines as closely as possible, ensuring they feel secure and at ease. I provide companionship, regular feeding, and playtime, and I keep the space clean and orderly. As a college athlete with a busy schedule, I’m great at managing my time, which means pets always get the care and attention they deserve.
A typical day
When caring for pets through Rover, I make sure they have a fun, active, and enriching experience. Here are some activities I love to do with the pets I watch: 1. Playtime at the Park: If the pet enjoys socializing, we’ll visit dog-friendly parks for some off-leash time (if allowed) and play games like fetch, tug-of-war, and chase. 2. Interactive Walks: I turn our walks into mini-adventures, allowing them to explore new scents and sights along safe, dog-friendly routes. This keeps them mentally stimulated and engaged. 3.Treat Games: For mental enrichment, I use puzzle toys or hide treats around the home to create a fun “treasure hunt.” It’s great for keeping pets sharp and entertained. 4. Basic Training Practice: With the owner’s permission, I reinforce basic commands or teach fun new tricks, keeping their minds active and encouraging good behavior. 5. Cuddle & Relaxation Time: Every pet has different energy levels, so I also make time for cozy, relaxing moments—whether that’s lounging on the couch together or gentle petting sessions. I always tailor activities to each pet’s personality and preferences, ensuring they’re happy, safe, and comfortable while they’re with me.
