Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: My name is Shayna, (also known by my clients as 'The Pet Whisperer') and I always knew in my heart that I should be working with animals. That is why I decided to start my own pet sitting business in the summer of 2013. What pushed me to start this business because of my dog Buster. He has a lot of anxiety and we have not gone on vacation without him because he gets so scared in kennels. We wished that we knew someone who was trustworthy and loved him like their own pet that could stay with him at our house while we were away or at a wedding so he wouldn't get so worked up being crated in a kennel. And I remember saying, "Wow I should be doing this." And Nanny Wags began. I knew that this was the career for me, and I plan on continuing with my business indefinitely.
I love working with all of my furry clients. To me, it's not work & I truly care for them. I don't do this for the money. I do it because I want your pets to feel comfortable and at ease while you're away in their own environment.

Shayna is the ultimate pet sitter! She treated our cat like he was her own. She was very professional and responsible in taking care of our cat and our home while we were away. Not only did she feed him and take care of his physical needs but she also spent quality time with him. She emailed us photos of our cat so we could see how he was doing. She is truly in this business because she loves all animals. I would not hesitate to have her sit for us again when we are away.

Shayna was such a lovely person and an excellent cat sitter! My mom and I have three cats and they are our babies - we spoil them rotten and give them unconditional love and the best care - therefore when we needed to leave town suddenly for a long weekend, we were unsure if we'd actually be able to go because we didn't have a petsitter. I quickly did some research on thumbtack and came across Shayna (Nanny Wags). We were nervous to leave our babies with someone new, but were thoroughly impressed with Shayna. She stayed at our house while we were gone and took fantastic care of our cats, happily tending to the specific needs of each one, and giving them all so much love, play, and attention. She also stayed in contact regularly while we were gone, sending pictures of the cats and updates along the way. When my mom and I returned yesterday, the house was clean and the cats were happy and well cared for - we couldn't be more grateful. We not only had a great experience using Nanny Wags, but are excited to have found a sitter that we will absolutely use into the future. Thank you so very much Shayna, my mom and I would excitedly recommend you to anyone needing pet sitting services of any kind!

Nanny Wags Is the best!! After bad experiences with another Haverhill based pet sitter, I had started to give up hope that there would be a customer service oriented pet sitting company out there! Shayna restored my faith! She is nothing short of a blessing ! She is flexible, caring and dependable! My dogs just love her and I love getting a photo that she takes during her daily visits ! If you want the best of the best then go with this service hands down !!

Shayna genuinely loves animals. She was so good with our two Maltese puppies and they loved her. She has such a bubbly personality and it gave me great relief to have her looking after my babies. I highly recommend her for all pet sitting needs.

Shayna is the consummate professional. Besides loving and caring for our dog, who believe me, is not easy, she thought to ask everything before accepting the assignment. I'm pretty sure my dog would rather live with her. She updates you while you're away, she asked about watering plants and taking in mail, she loves your pet like you do, and she is the sweetest, most patient, thorough worker I know. You won't be sorry you hired her.
