Availability

I work from home with a flexible schedule and am available day or night, seven days a week to welcome your furry family member. Your pet will NEVER be left alone. Drop-ins are welcome, but please plan ample time for introductions if you're new to us so we can be confident all of our furry family members feel safe. Puppies will be considered on a case by case basis with review of current level of training and individual needs. You are welcome to bring along any of your pet's favorite things so they feel more at home.

Information Shawna D. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any specific breed restrictions so long as your pet plays well with others. Does your loved one have any specific dietary, medical, or special needs? I'd love to hear more. How well do they tolerate a leash? Do they like to chew? If so, what are their favorite chew things/ treats?

A typical day

We love a balance of fun and rest. Our activities include playing in the yard and chasing squirrels, enjoying the neighborhood scenery, and car rides to new destinations with the wind blowing through our hair. When it's quiet, you'll find our pups bird watching, enjoying favorite TV shows, or lounging around/ hanging out.

Shawna was so great with Moose! She was very communicative and sent plenty of photos while I was away. Additionally, she worked to introduce each pup one on one since we weren’t able to do a meet and greet beforehand. She was very attentive and Moose had such a great time playing with his new friends! I’d absolutely recommend Shawna to anyone!
