Shannon’s role in the pet sitting industry began in 1998 when she founded Buckhead Pet Pals as a single pet sitter and dog walker. Growth of Buckhead Pet Pals took off in 2000 when Shannon was placed on bed rest, and she hired her first pet sitters. Buckhead Pet Pals continues to grow each year since and has been honored as “Best Pet Sitting Company in Atlanta” by Atlanta Magazine. With the growth of Buckhead Pet Pals, Shannon recognized a need for an industry specific software to help with the day to day management of her company. Shannon partnered with two other individuals and co-founded Power Pet Sitter in 2005. Power Pet Sitter is a worldwide, industry leading software that has helped her and many others manage all aspects of their pet sitting businesses with one easy tool. Shannon is the co-owner of another Metro-Atlanta pet sitting company, Barking Up the RIght Tree and she also provides private business consulting to new and existing business owners. All of this and Shannon will tell you her primary role is as a wife and mother to her husband Mike, and their two children. Shannon can still be found in the Atlanta area if not at work, then at her home enjoying her family!
