Availability
I’ve built my routine to be fully flexible around my pet sitting commitments. Because I'm a full-time pet care provider, your pet's needs are the centerpiece of my day. I don't have a strict 9-to-5 job; my "office hours" are your pet's schedule. My days are naturally divided into morning routines, midday playtime and walks, and evening care. This structure allows me to handle multiple clients in a day without ever rushing. It means your dog gets their midday walk on time, and your cat gets their evening meal at the exact moment they're used to

About Shianne Q.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When your pet stays with me, they become a part of my family. My home provides a safe, comfortable, and cage-free environment where your pet can relax and play just like they do at home. I have a [mention a specific feature, e.g., fully fenced yard, a dedicated play area, a large cozy living room], and I limit the number of pets I host at one time to ensure every guest gets plenty of one-on-one attention and care. A typical day in my home includes: Morning: A refreshing walk and potty break, followed by breakfast. Midday: Plenty of supervised playtime, cuddles, and rest. Evening: A final walk, dinner, and a relaxing evening to wind down. I'll follow your instructions to the letter, whether it's a special diet or a medication schedule, and will send you regular photo and video updates so you can see your pet enjoying their vacation.

Information Shianne Q. would like to know about your pet
I want to make sure your pet feels completely comfortable and safe in my care, which is why I believe in a thorough pre-visit chat. The more I know about your pet, the better I can care for them! Before our first visit, I'll want to know about: Their Daily Routine: What time do they eat, go potty, and play? Their Personality: Are they a cuddler, a sniffer, or a couch potato? Do they have any unique quirks or favorite games? Special Needs: Does your pet have any allergies or take any medications? Knowing this helps me keep them happy and healthy. Safety First: Does your pet have any triggers or specific fears I should be aware of? This helps me keep them feeling secure. I believe open communication is key to a great experience for everyone.
A typical day
My philosophy is that a happy pet is an active and engaged pet! I tailor activities to fit your pet's personality, energy level, and favorite things. Whether your pet is an active adventurer or a calm couch potato, I'll ensure they get the right mix of exercise, mental stimulation, and affection. For Dogs: Tailored Walks & Play: We'll explore the neighborhood with leashed walks and have fun with games like fetch, tug-of-war, and hide-and-seek. I'll also incorporate sniffing games and puzzle toys to keep their minds sharp and engaged. Park Time: If your dog is a good fit for a dog park, we can visit local parks for some safe, supervised off-leash play. Cuddle Sessions: I always make time for plenty of belly rubs, ear scratches, and cozy snuggles to ensure your pup feels loved and secure. For Cats: Playtime & Enrichment: We'll use their favorite toys—whether it's a laser pointer, a feather wand, or a simple crinkle ball—to get them moving and satisfy their natural hunting instincts. Mental Stimulation: I'll set up food puzzles and treat-dispensing toys to make mealtime fun and challenging. Quality Cuddles: I'll provide plenty of gentle chin scratches, slow blinks, and quiet company to build trust and give your cat the attention they crave. I'll keep a close eye on their energy and mood and adjust our activities accordingly. My main goal is to make sure your pet has a fun and enriching experience while you're away!

Pet care experience
With over 20 years of experience, what truly sets me apart is my deep, professional understanding of animal behavior and my commitment to treating every pet as an individual. This isn't just a job for me—it's a passion built on a lifetime of caring for animals. My specialized skills ensure your pet receives the highest level of care: Senior Pet Care: I have extensive experience providing patient, gentle care for older pets, including administering medication, assisting with mobility, and recognizing subtle signs of discomfort. Puppy and Kitten Training: I'm skilled in continuing your training efforts, from reinforcing house training and crate training to teaching basic commands like sit, stay, and come. Medical Care: I'm fully comfortable and experienced in administering various medications, including pills, topical creams, and injections. I also have a keen eye for noticing early health changes and will communicate with you immediately. Feline-Specific Expertise: I'm not just a dog sitter; I'm a cat person, too. I understand feline body language and the need for a calm, respectful approach to win a cat's trust. While other sitters might offer walks and feedings, I offer peace of mind. You can relax knowing your pet is not just being cared for, but is thriving in the hands of a true professional.
