Safety, trust & environment
My mother, who is also a Reiki Master, lives with me and loves to help with our guests and keep everyone company. She says she is everyone’s “Oma.” ❤️ Our home is a safe place with warmth and care, and your animals will feel this during their stay! 🥰

Information Shawna R. would like to know about your pet
I am comfortable with all breeds. I previously shared my home with a Siberian husky and deaf dalmatians and have a soft spot for special needs pets. I currently have a shepherd mix and a Siberian Husky. Before booking a service, I will discuss your dog's personality and quirks with you to understand all of his/her likes and dislikes. I will ask about any stress triggers, especially things like thunderstorms or other noises, and of course any medical issues or allergies to be aware of.
A typical day
In addition to providing exercise, I strive to create a peaceful environment and experience for my clients' pets. It is already hard for them to be without their owners, so my goal is to reduce stress, leaving them more at ease than they were before I arrived. As a Reiki Master Practitioner and Certified Dog Trainer, I consider every interaction that I have with an animal to be sacred and valuable, both from a behavioral perspective and an energetic one!

Pet care experience
Holistic in-home boarding retreat! Daily exercise, safe socialization, playtime, cuddles, flower essences, and more! Special programs are now available such as 1) CAMP - trail hikes, biking, treadmill, agility, field trips 2) TRAINING TUNE UP - training lessons each day, focusing on basic manners, leash walking, recall, impulse control, and conditioned relaxation. 3) SPA RETREAT - canine massage, Reiki energy healing, red light therapy, and extra cuddles 1:1 time. In most cases, I require a Meet and Greet/Trial Day to ensure that your pup will do well in my home. We chat about your dog and then you leave for a few hours (good opportunity to run errands!). After this, I become your dog’s safe home away from home when you need it! 😊❤️ If you are not local and looking for care while you visit the Hi-Desert, let me know, and we can see if it seems like a good fit. 😊 PLEASE NOTE FOR HOUSE SITTING IN YOUR HOME: My rate includes the overnight hours (9p-6a) and two drop-ins during the day- midday and dinnertime.
Reviews
Shawna is absolutely amazing! Best experience I've had with a pet sitter. She is very experienced and was able to handle all four of my large dogs. She sent pictures and lots of updates with every visit and gave me much peace of mind that my dogs were happy and taken care of. Shawna truly goes above and beyond for her clients!
Only one I will use - she has been fabtastic
Shawna was absolutely amazing with Drako! She took excellent care of him, kept me updated, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It's clear she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. Drako was happy, well cared for, and comfortable when I returned. I highly recommend Shawna to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter. Thank you so much, Shawna—we'll definitely be booking with you again! 🐾❤️
Shawna was amazing. I’m always very nervous about leaving my pets with anyone, but I could tell from the first day that my senior boy was in great hands. She treated him as though he was her own and gave me daily updates. My dog fell asleep for hours as soon as we got home, so I know he had a good time. I will use Shawna as our pet sitter from now on, if she’s available.
