Pet care experience
Hello my name is Shawna! I live with my husband TJ ,our 3 boys under 5 and our 10 year old dog Zoe. I have many years of dog and farm animal experience. I live on just over an acre of land in the Ranchettes which is a rural neighborhood 5 miles from Punta Gorda Airport.. Our entire property is fenced (even the driveway) and the gate is always shut so no need to worry about your dog running off. Our family loves to be outside with the dogs. If it is a hot day we make sure the dogs don’t stay out too long at a time and keep them hydrated. We play fetch or just let the dogs explore and enjoy the outdoors. While inside the dogs will be allowed to roam freely and given plenty of attention and treated like our own. Zoe loves to bark at people and their dogs when they first arrive but she is friendly and loves the chance to socialize and play with other dogs I am able to be home all but 2 days a week which are Wednesday and Thursday. I am gone for 7 hours those days but able to come home after 4 hours to give dogs a bathroom break. I ask for puppies who are not fully housebroken to be crate trained at night.
Reviews
Shawna and her family were absolutely wonderful with Charlie! Great property for animals. Really appreciated them taking time to play fetch & send videos/pics each day…also the ability and willingness to take him last minute for us! Will def use again.
Our dog looked great after picking her up. Shawna was a great communicater. We would use her again.
Shawna was fantastic and Moxie my golden retriver had a great time.She slept all the way back to Daytona. Shawna sent me a few pics during her stay which was great. If I'm back in the area I would most definitely use her again.
Shawna took great care of of my dog; she was so happy when I picked up! I appreciated the pictures and videos!

Information shawna J. would like to know about your pet
I can not take agressive dogs and dogs who aren’t good with kids around. Need to know if your dog will try and escape the fence such as dig or jump the fence. Will they come back inside if called? If not they will need to be leash walked. We are always outside with the dogs but our fenced in area is large. Does your dog have any unusual quirks ?
A typical day
walks or free range in large fenced in area. Plenty of down time relaxing freely in the house. Lots of attention given by us and the kids
