I’ll take your dog to the park! :)

Pet care experience

Hi. My name is Shawn and I have loved dogs my entire life. I had a cocker spaniel named Daisy when growing up and when I moved to Cleveland in 2016 I adopted a 13 year old senior Westie named Chip. Sadly, after 4 wonderful golden years, Chip has passed. I live in a dog friendly area with a ton of outdoor space for dogs, wide open grass fields, and other beautiful nature parks. I love animals and would love to have a dog to take with me to go for a walk or throw a tennis ball or just explore outdoors. I’m experienced with care for both puppies and senior dogs that need special attention. I’ve fostered animals in the past for the Michigan Humane Society I know that sometimes certain dogs need personalized care. If you work evenings, weekends, or stuck late at work, I have no problem doing nighttime walks or weekend arrangements. You can contact me anytime, even last minute if necessary. I’m doing this for fun and for the love of dogs. If you’d like references regarding my animal care experience, I would be happy to provide them. Shawn

Shawn is a great dog caregiver! He adopted and took care of a senior dog in need and gave him love and care during his last years of life. He has experience with caring for dogs that need a little extra patience, and he's responsible and detail oriented. You can count on him to give your dog the best care and attention.

Shawn is the best dog uncle! My two german shepherds adore him. He lives far away but when he visits he takes them for walks around the neighborhood. He was also a dog owner himself, to a great dog Chip; he adopted him at an old age to take care of him in his older years. I would highly recommend Shawn to any dog owners!

Shawn is an amazing person. He had adopted a senior dog a few years ago and was an amazing care taker for the little guy! I know that he loves dogs and would love to take them on a walk or be a very trustful dog sitter. I've seen him interact with his dog so many times and he is so good at it. Shawn stands out to me because he is an animal lover and I know that he would be great with others' loved ones.

Information Shawn S. would like to know about your pet

As I mentioned above, I have a long history of experience taking care of not only my personal animals, but foster dogs, puppies, and senior citizen dogs. To provide the best care for your pet, all I would need to know is if certain things will set them off temperamentally, if they’re allergic to anything, if they require medication, and if they have any restrictions or health issues. Aside from that all dogs love cuddles and playtime!

A typical day

Each breed requires a slightly different approach to their playtime but the essentials are the same for every fun loving dog… adventure, exercise, new sights smells and sounds, and undivided attention.
