Pup lover free to walk / sit!
Pet care experience
Hey there! I am Shannon and I work from home in sales. I love dogs - I've owned dogs throughout my life and fostered about 5 times all with successful placements. I love having fun with dogs and am big on following the boundaries their owners have set forth. I'm comfortable with a variety of temperaments and ages - the oldest dogs I've cared for have been about 12 years old (real seniors) and the youngest have been puppies. I also have experience with dogs with disabilities and limited mobility. Looking to walk / sit some cute pups and make sure they feel well taken care of when their owners are away like a cool aunt.
Reviews
Shannon is amazing with animals! She is extremely loving towards any dog she comes across, including my own. I’d trust her with my pup any day.
Shannon took excellent care of my husky with short notice! He seemed to have a wonderful time. She was diligent about giving him his medication and giving him walks, as well as updating me on his eating habits while I was away. I wouldn't hesitate to leave my pup with her again! Thank you!
Shannon did a great job taking care of my pup Zooey while I was away for four nights. She was very accommodating and was able to squeeze in a last minute meet and greet and accepted my reservation with very short notice. I returned home to find my doggie happy as ever. Shannon's apartment is very clean and she is very kind and responsive. I will definitely use her again!
Shannon was wonderful and we will be using her again! She was accommodating, caring, and responsible with our pets and home. We are so grateful to have found her!

Safety, trust & environment
I do not offer in-home sitting but I will respect your space and make sure any ground rules you have will be followed. ex: closing bathroom doors, abiding by any crate boundaries, etc.
Information Shannon W. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or temperament characteristics I should know about - ex: leash reactivity, reactivity to large or small dogs, prey drive, etc.
A typical day
I love walking through city parks, down by the lakeshore, and anywhere there is green space. Happy to go on shorter walks depending on your pets needs. I love giving them mental stimulation - letting them sniff when appropriate, run through the grass, play fetch on a long lead if you have one. I'm also a big fan of treats and puzzle games with food for additional mental stimulation. And I think my favorite game is tug of war with pups!

Availability
I work from home and have flexibility throughout the day. As long as I have about a day or two to plan for meetings and calls, your pup will be a priority!
