About: I have grown up with animals all my life, I’ve given many baths and walked many dogs. I just love animals so much. Thank you! I have two jobs right now. But I get out of school at 11:10 during the week. So I can do any time after that :) I have two loving cats in my home. I do not have a fence so I will have to be at the persons place if needed to be let out. But I can definitely walk them around my neighborhood.

Shawn P.
“Shawn takes the best care of any fur baby she has/had the pleasure of spending time with. I know personally she has a cat with a lot of needs and she’s always letting me know all of the things she does to make sure he stays happy and comfortable in his environment. She always treats her animals as if they were a child of her own, and respects them as such aswell. I highly recommend her for Rover because you would never have to worry that she won’t be giving these babies the love and care that they deserve.”
