Highlights
Pet care experience
Safe, room to explore
I am a retired Police Officer who has a lot of experience as a K-9 handler. I love all dogs and able to respond to their individual personalities. Some need a gentle hand and some need some hard play time. Either way, I am ready to meet you and your dog's needs. Best of all, I am someone you will not have to worry about being in and around your home- I have had an active security clearance in the military for 30 years and just retired from 20 years in law enforcement.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
My experience administering medication I have had two huge German Shepherd working dogs that both had to have medication throughout their careers. One was easy, and one was difficult. They both received their medications safely.
Ratings and reviews
Excellent care of my aged cat. Took special effort to insure she was fed during a power outage that limited access to her quarters.
If we could give Shawn 10 stars, we would!!!! If you are reading this review and wondering whether you should hire Shawn, we'd say look no further and book Shawn now. We found Shawn after a last minute cancellation by another Rover dog sitter. He came right over to meet our dog, Art. Shawn was very responsible and responsive throughout our entire trip. He followed all of our pup's instructions exactly -- and went above board by giving Art lots of extra love and attention and even taking our pup on a pre-approved "field trips."

Schedule
Why I love dog sitting We have had dogs all our lives. I was a dog handler as a police officer. My first dog was a German Shepherd who was great at obedience and search and rescue. We both worked at ground zero searching for survivors in NY for 9 straight days. Me and Hero were together for 9 years. I later had an explosive detection K9 and we worked at the airport for 3 years. Atros, who is also a German Shepherd, is still working in airports now that I am retired.
