Military man 2 serve your furry pal

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Shawn. I’m an avid snowboarder and love backpacking trips to our national parks and forests. However, traveling with my furry pal has always been the difficult to find an affordable and trustworthy sitter when my doggo isn’t allowed on the slopes or the park! Now that I live in the heart of California’s bests parks, I want to help those like me in need! I'm a local military member living my dream and doing my service to this country. As a kid I grew up with dogs and have one of my own who I got immediately upon graduating college. As a result I have developed an unconditional love for "man's best friend" and would like to expand my duty to serve so that it includes those of the 4 legged variety. If you book with me, you’ll have the piece of mind that your dog will be in the best care while you are off galavanting the mountains with no service.

Shawn did a great job with our dogs. They are always timid with new people, so Shawn took his time with them before going on their walk. Both dogs literally had smiles on their faces when they returned. Thank you so much.

Shawn went above and beyond for my pup. She really enjoyed her stay.

Safety, trust & environment

Every dog that I meet is immediately treated like family and my home is completely open to them. They are immediately greeted with love and affection. I'll spend endless amounts of time with them and am a very active individual and love anything outdoors. You can expect many walks, runs, and play sessions. I have a huge fenced-in yard filled with toys for the dogs to play and let out some energy. In addition you can rest assured that your pal will be closely watch over as if they were my own and that you will be completely in the loop with daily updates during your absence. Please contact me with any questions or concerns you may have. I will gladly talk to you. Looking forward to meeting you and making a connection with your best friend.

Information Shawn N. would like to know about your pet

Spayed or neutered, house broken, leash trained, or crate trained. Dog friendly and approachable. People friendly? The dog's demeanor and typical temperament. Any specifics regarding play style and or dietary restrictions.

A typical day

I love to ask pet owners what they’ve been working on with their dogs, but activities I have done with previous clients are: Dog parks, dog play dates, long runs/longboarding sessions, training sessions, massages, baths/brushing, and hardcore cuddles.

I work on base, so during weekdays the pups are just a short trip home to take them out on a walk. When I am available weekends while I’m on Search and Rescue Duty, rest assured your dog will get plenty of play time.
