How I Care for Pets in My Home and My Clients’ Homes I specialize in caring for dogs and cats, whether they stay in my home or I come to theirs. My goal is always to provide a loving, safe, and stress-free experience tailored to each pet’s needs. In My Home: Pets who stay with me are treated like family. I have a secure, fenced-in yard where dogs can play and explore freely, and I’m located near a beautiful walking trail by the lake, which is perfect for daily walks and even swimming if your dog enjoys the water. I keep routines consistent with what they’re used to at home, including feeding times, medications, and cuddles. Cats are given their own calm, quiet space away from dogs if needed, with plenty of attention, toys, and cozy spots to relax. In Clients’ Homes: When I provide care in your home, I work to maintain your pet’s routine and environment as closely as possible. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I ensure your pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I also offer regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and in good hands.

Information Shawnda B. would like to know about your pet

For the safety of all pets and people, I do not accept aggressive or reactive dogs into my care. I’m happy to discuss your dog’s behavior in detail beforehand to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for everyone. My goal is always to provide a calm, positive experience for each pet I watch.

A typical day

Fun Activities I Do with the Pets I Watch I love keeping pets happy, active, and engaged during our time together! For dogs, that means: • Walks on a scenic trail by the lake (and a swim if they’re water lovers) • Playtime in my fenced-in yard with toys, games of fetch, or just exploring • Tug-of-war, brain games, and treat puzzles to keep them mentally stimulated • Cuddle time and belly rubs for the snuggle bugs For cats, I provide: • Interactive play with wand toys, laser pointers, and puzzle feeders • Cozy nap spots, windows for bird-watching, and quiet lap time • Gentle brushing or petting, depending on their preferences I always adjust activities based on each pet’s personality, age, and energy level—whether they love to run or prefer lounging in the sun.

Pets

I will treat your pet like my own.

Pet care experience

Your pet will have fun with me and my dog, Sadie! She is my very sweet, 8 year old Golden Retriever. I treat her like a human and will treat yours the same. We visit the puppy park every day and go for a long walks around the park. We also like to go for rides and stop along the way to get pupachinos at Starbucks. We are close to the lake, so swimming could be in store. I love other animals and would love to open my heart and home to your four-legged family member. I will send pictures and videos and do all I can do relieve any stress to both you and your pet. I am flexible and will work with you to accommodate any special needs you have. I want it to be a pleasurable experience for ALL of us.
