40+ Years Pampering Pets!

Pet care experience

Over 40 years of experience with dogs! I grew up with dogs. My mom was a breeder and professional dog trainer so we always had many dogs and puppies in our home. I have extensive experience with all breeds of dogs in all stages of their lives. I am a homeschooling mom and owner of a local pet sitting business for over a decade. My husband cares for pets in their own homes, and I provide loving care for pets in our home. I am home full time. We are trusted members of our community, living in our same home in San Ramon for the past 25 years. I grew up with lots of pets in my home. Since my mom was a professional dog trainer and breeder, there were always lots of dogs and puppies in our home, and I was taught from a very young age how to love, respect, and care for them. I have raised many, many dogs from newborn puppies through their senior years. I am able to administer medication and care for dogs with special needs. I am a homeschooling mom of 3 boys (13-year-old twins and a 9-year-old), so we are all home during the day. Dogs who stay with us get lots of attention, play time, and walks around our quiet gated neighborhood. My home is centrally located in San Ramon near the Marketplace. I would love to be a loving friend for your furbaby and a trusted partner for you in their care. :-) I am home full time. As a homeschooling parent, the kids and I are home all day and love to take the dogs for walks and lots of play time. We provide a safe and loving environment for the dogs in our care. We have a fully enclosed balcony where the dogs can play off leash, and all walks are done on-leash in our quiet, gated community with low-traffic.

Shawna was very communicative and flexible with drop off and pickup times. Larry clearly greatly enjoyed his stay. I would highly recommend her

Shawna was communicative and accommodating during the whole process. This was our first time using rover and we were blessed that Shawna was available to take care of our Sadie. Shawna’s experience with dogs was evident in the insights she provided and the way she took care of Sadie, going above and beyond to make her feel comfortable and loved while we were away. Wont hesitate to book again or recommend her to friends.

Thank you Shawna for taking care of Oreo. This is the first time I had a vacation not worrying about Oreo.

Very good, my dog was playful as usual and she even hugged Shawna when I picked her up.

Information Shawna C. would like to know about your pet

Due to kids in my home and neighbors in close proximity, dogs must be comfortable around children and not prone to barking. Generally, our environment can be active, so we have found it is not ideal for dogs with anxiety. Please let me know if your dog has anxiety or separation anxiety tendencies.

A typical day

I take the dogs for several walks per day as well as multiple play time periods with other dogs as well as kids, so the dogs get a variety of activities and experiences throughout the day.
