About Us
Hello everyone! I'm Shannon, the founder of Shannon's Pet Care and Happisburgh Dog Park. My love for animals has always been a driving force in my life. I launched Shannon's Pet Care, previously known as Shannon's Sitting Services, in 2014, starting by walking my neighbor's dog three times a week. My enthusiasm for dog walking and pet sitting has fueled my passion to provide services tailored specifically to the needs of the pets we care for.
In 2021, I began expanding the Shannon's Pet Care team, enabling us to cover a larger service area, from Mundesley to Thrigby and reaching all the way to Norwich! My dedicated team is committed to ensuring your pets feel safe and comfortable while in our care. We absolutely love meeting new animals and cherish being their second-best friends!
In May 2024, I proudly opened the gates to Happisburgh Dog Park, a fully enclosed field available for customers to book 50-minute private slots. This space allows dogs to run, jump, and play freely off-leash, without the need for recall or concerns about other dogs or people! We are thrilled to be an award-winning business, having secured 3rd place in the 'Dog Walking' category at the 2024 Dog Friendly Awards (which was absolutely paw-some!).
And here we are today! We offer a comprehensive range of pet care services (see the brief list below) for your beloved pets:
-
Walks: Solo, Buddy, and Group Dog Walks + Adventure Mornings
-
Pop-Ins: 30, 45, 60, and 90-minute visits for both dogs and small pets
-
Pet Sitting: Overnight Live-In Pet and House Sitting and Holiday Day Pet Sitting
-
Play Dates at the Dog Park
If you have any questions about our services or would like to make a booking, please feel free to 'contact us.' I look forward to hearing from you soon!
