Shannon's "Safe At Home" Petsitting

Shannon's "Safe At Home" Petsitting I care for all breeds/ages/sizes of cats and dogs. I was a pet handler (volunteer) with KHS for several years.

I specialize in seniors, special needs/amputees, pets with seizures, medical issues and blind/deaf pets, administering oral and injectible meds.

Stella and I. She was one of my very first pet clients and hasn't grown tired of me yet!

Stella's favorite thing is to cuddle. She and I used to do yoga together on my visits but her hyper sister Lucy always has to be in the middle of everything so that makes it tough now.

So, now I play fetch with Lucy with one hand and cuddle Stella with the other. It makes both girls happy.

Another five star review!

Fortunately, the pet ended up being OK. One of my biggest selling points for my business is that I believe in full transparency and clear communication.

I called the client immediately and took video of the pet in distress and sent it to the client several ways since they were having trouble getting wifi access at their location, all while trying to console the pet, assess the situation and keep her calm.

Staying level headed and knowing what to do when everything goes haywire is important when pets are in my care.

We are also celebrating Sawyer's 8 year adoption anniversary!

As my daughter likes to tell it... "So my mom and I went to a thrift store near the humane society and we came back with 3 shirts, a pair of shorts, and a cat. 😻"

It was a rough start at our home having a senior cat and a kitty but everything turned out great and Sawyer is everyone's friend and my yoga buddy.

My sweet boy Kasper turns 15 today!

Since we're celebrating Kasper today, here is a before and after pic of when he entered foster care in 2019. He was with his foster mom for ten months before we adopted him in 2020, right at the start of covid. He had a ton of applications submitted to adopt him but his foster mom didn't feel that any of them were a good fit. We put an application in and got a call two days later and he came to live with us five days after that.

His previous owner had given him up due to not being able to afford grooming or dental care. I'm sure it was a hard decision on his owner's part, but ultimately he did what was best for Kas. As soon as Kas entered foster care, he got a much needed grooming and had to have every single tooth pulled. As you can tell from the after pic he's a much happier boy, even smiling!

This is my sweet Daisy. Today is her 14th birthday!

She is my velcro and wants to be everywhere I am. I don't have very many pet visits today so I'm planning to be home most of the day and evening, which she will ♥️!

The only plan I have for the day other than yoga class this morning is to take a nap around lunch time. All I have to do is say the word "nap" and all my pets head toward my bedroom. It's the best thing in the world.

Happy birthday Daisy.

Taking ice very gently out of my hand. Both of these girls (and their sister Emma) all take treats so gently from my hand.

Today marks 4 years since James and I brought Daisy home to be part of our family! A special thank you to my cousin Melanie for bringing our sweet girl into our lives.

Daisy will be 14 later this month. Her favorite things are doing yoga with me and eating all the other dogs' food instead of her own. We love her so much and can't imagine life without her. She makes it interesting and never boring for sure!

This is my own sweet Gia, exactly a year ago. So much has happened in her life in the past year and she has now been diagnosed with canine cognitive disorder (similar to dementia in humans). She now only has one eye but I think she's so cute in these pics with her tutu on.

We started her on a few medications to help her sleep at night; those seem to be working for now. We will keep increasing the dosage but at some point when those meds aren't working, we'll have to determine how it's affecting the quality of her life and make the ultimate call. There aren't any other options at that point.

She is almost 15 years old. We adopted her a year and a half ago from a local foster organization. Before her life in the foster, we're not sure how great her life was or if she was truly loved. We're told the owners tried to get rid of her a few times and eventually let her just run away. So, any time we have given her is a blessing. She was deeply loved while on foster care and her foster mommy and I chat every now and then.

This is Turtle. When I first met her, she was so scared and timid she wouldn't even come out from under the bed.

By the end of my visits, I had her coming out to me and we even took a few pics together. I was even able to get her on the leash to go outside without having to coax her. ♥️

This is Molly. She has been a client of mine for over a year now and she has some wonderful news she'd like to share!

She passed her therapy dog test and has been going to work with her mommy! She is loving hanging out with kids all day and I have no doubt the kiddos are loving having her around.

Let's show Molly some love and let her know how cool she is! I know she has worked really hard for this.

What's better than 2 Bostons in one home? How about 3 Bostons in one home?

I started with these new clients this past weekend and spent the last several days with them.

They are full of energy and were so much fun!

Gracie and Zoey. Two of my newest clients, I just started watching them this weekend for the first time and we had so much fun!

They are quite a pair. They act as if they have to discuss everything before doing it. Like "hey, Shannon wants us to go potty. What do you think? Is that a good idea?" or "hey, Shannon has our dinner ready. Should we eat or should we just sit on the couch and look cute?" Their mannerisms are totally adorable. They look at each other for acceptance and try to read each other's cues. Neither of them have a poker face, for sure. 😉
