Shannon's Dog Retreat
Pet care experience
Welcome to the pack/family! I’ve been professionally working with dogs and cats for over 10 years. I am specialized in caring for different breeds, ages, and temperaments. I have created everlasting bonds with the best clients and furry friends. A true resort experience will be provided for your pet. I will accommodate any and all notes by owner to surpass expectations. You will receive daily updates by pictures/videos and summaries in regards to your fur-babies stay. Your pet will be treated like family providing the perfect balance of love and discipline to ensure they are always safe and sound. Throughout many years of experience, my passion in this career has grown effortlessly every minute we bond to where it never feels like a job. My dedication to your pet is above average. One of my life-long dreams is to one day help rescue animals around the world and make a difference, one innocent animal at a time. My number one purpose is love. Unconditional love simply because they can only be dogs to us but to them, we are their whole world! Please see additional information below.
Reviews
Shannon is wonderful. She stayed with our samoyed, Betty and gave her above and beyond care and attention. Betty loved having her there and we were so grateful for all of her updates and pictures. We came home to a relaxed pup from all of her walks and play time with Shannon. Thank you, Shannon! You are welcome anytime in our home.
Shannon was able to step in with less notice than usual, allowing us to enjoy our event without worrying.
This was the longest we’d been away from Ruthie, and Shannon did a great job with her and keeping the house in order while we were gone. Cannot say enough good things!
As always, Shannon did a great job!

Safety, trust & environment
When house-sitting, I will leave your home responsibly nice and clean with a happy well taken care of fur-baby awaiting for your arrival. When boarding, all pups are allowed to roam free throughout where they can choose the coziest bed or couch. I have a crate as well but only use if you’d like. I love stimulating your dogs physical and mental, with play-time which increases bonding and trust, cuddles, treats, and lots of exercise unless senior or restricted from. Your dog won’t be alone nor w/o a potty break for more than 3 hours, unless you note otherwise. Out of courtesy, with permission from owners, I am willing to take your dog to dog parks where you allow. I offer a complimentary bath a day before vacation is over, upon your request.
