He is caring and compassionate towards all animals and thrives when taking care of their needs including feeding, walking, giving medication, changing puppy pads, tending to our female dog when she is in heat, and keeping their yard clean of waste.

“Shannon did an AMAZING job caring for our Ellie girl. She went above and beyond what we asked of her. Ellie is a high energy pup and requires a lot of attention. Shannon was very intentional about exercising Ellie so she didn’t have excess energy and stayed out of trouble. Shannon worked on commands with Ellie and had a very professional approach to caring for her. We received lots of updates with pictures, making us feel safe while we were away. We are also very grateful for the way Shannon respected our home while she stayed there. THANK YOU Shannon! 👏🏼”

About: I've been watching pets since I was 9. I've watched all kinds of pets. I have pet sat for family and friends. But I'm not a normal sitter. I have dog training under my belt, so if your pet needs to work on tricks or training I can help Once a week I walk my dog and every other day I give them special food like blueberries, pumpkin puree, and chicken in their food. If they are a cautious pet I sit with them and wait for them to come to me. Then when they feel comfortable with me I put my hand out for them to smell me. And if their Demeanor changes I go from there

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember. It started @ 5 yrs old showing sheep @ the KC Fair. I have had dogs and cats to hamsters and rats plus rabbits, sheep, goats, chickens and even a tortoise. I have taken care of many dogs with medical issues. I can give meds and wound care to general care of feeding, walking and playtime. My schedule is open for your schedule. I would love to make this my full time gig with your help. I would love the opportunity to care and love your pet as much as I love mine. I don't think I have ever meant a dog I didn't like! Caring for your pet is easy, just give them love and understanding. To be honest, my pets are a bit spoiled but have the general do's and don't understood. I'm not super strict because they are like a child that needs direction, not necessarily punishment.

“Kat does a great job with all animals, especially dogs. In high school, she raised dogs for Guild Dog for the Blind as her FFA Project. Her dog attended school with her everyday while it learned social skills and public manners. Kat attended weekly training meeting for several years and was dedicated to the training of each dog in her care. One of the dogs became a guide for a blind person and the another became a full-time therapy dog. Kat took the therapy dog to many therapy training meetings and became a training for new therapy dogs in the group. Kat and her dogs went on several therapy visits to libraries, schools, nursing homes, 12 Step recovery programs with therapy dogs, and she worked with the police department for crisis therapy care. For the last six years, Kat has been showing AKC Border Collies in AKC Shows and she has two Grand Champion Dogs. She is currently training two puppy Border Collies for competition at the present time. Since then, she has done several private dog trainings sessions, and dog sitting, both at her house and other people's houses. for many people. Kat is very knowledgeable about dog care and training techniques.”

“Garrett was a roomate of mine for a couple of years. I had varying types of pets - ranging from cats to reptiles and birds. His passion and care for pets that weren't even his was admirable, my cats loved him and his knowledge on them and my exotic animals and their care always made him a reliable caregiver when I was away at work or on vacation. He was always willing to go out of his way to make sure they were happy and had everything they needed + more. I would recommend him any day to care for my pets both long and short term.”
